I listened to a lot of music in 2025. That’s perhaps the understatement of the year, but anyway… here are the songs I kept returning to the most. The playlist is primarily Christian music-based, with a few mainstream songs mixed in. If it’s here it’s because I thought it was interesting or worth a listen. You’ll find some radio-centric tunes hit very few as I tend to lean toward the independent music scene.
I’m only going list the Top 50 here but you can see the rest by visiting the Playlist link at the end!
