- The Damned, “Neat Neat Neat” (“Baby Driver”): Wright’s heist movie re-genrefication is a feature-length music video choreographed to the nines with a decibel-raising soundtrack of ‘70s and ‘80s new wave, none better than this revved-up speed-punk blaring in star Ansel Elgort’s ubiquitous headphones as he gets set to put pedal to the metal.
- Dave Matthews Band, “Crash Into Me” (“Lady Bird”): One of the most telling moments in Greta Gerwig’s critically acclaimed coming-of-age saga is when star Saoirse Ronan unabashedly expresses her unhip love for this song, completely missing (or perhaps inadvertently acknowledging) its sinister themes of stalking.
- Oneohtrix Point Never, “The Pure and the Damned” (“Good Time”): In perhaps the year’s most innovative movie score, the mysterious Boston-raised, Brooklyn-based composer formerly known as Daniel Lopatin mirrors the Safdie brothers’ frenetic, disorienting day-and-night in the life of Robert Pattinson’s tireless, yet charismatic hustler, who rushes against time and circumstance to free his mentally challenged sibling from jail.
- Patti Cake$, “Patti $ea$on” (“Patti Cake$”): Writer/director Geremy Jasper’s remarkable feature-length debut, a Sundance sensation that fizzled at the box office, chronicles the dreams of its title character, a would-be rapper and disaffected New Jersey blue-collar teen played by Aussie Danielle Macdonald, who performs the Jasper-penned songs with the skill of a veteran MC.

- Selena Gomez, “Bad Liar” Imagine reading this headline five years ago: “Selena Gomez Samples Talking Heads’ ‘Psycho Killer’ on Best Song of the Year.”
- Cardi B, “Bodak Yellow” The last few years have seen an increasing number of A-list stars struggle to land lasting hits, while newer artists emerge from the streaming shadows to claim the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100.
- Calvin Harris feat. Frank Ocean & Migos, “Slide” The key to the greatest producer-rapper(s)-singer super-teaming since “Yeah!” is in its subtly palindromic structure: The signature “Empty my bank account…” squawking kicks off the song, before giving way to Frank Ocean’s cool-breeze chorus — then neither are heard in full again until three verses later, when Frank’s hook makes its satisfying return, and the song ends on a final “I might!”
- Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee feat. Justin Bieber, “Despacito” (Remix) A solo opening guitar line with Caribbean flair. An “Ay” that could only signal the song’s “Latin-ness.”
