2023 was an interesting year for music. The past twelve months saw the resurgence of old favorites, controversial acts rising to the top (for whatever reason), and national treasures playing the role of the anti-hero. And interestingly enough, the year opened and ended with the same song at No. 1, despite the song being released nearly 30 years ago.
You can see below for a recap of the year’s biggest hits.
