That's 54 lists. Thanks to everybody who submitted a list!
The formula I used is 100*((1+20)/(rank+20)(I stole it from Holden's EOD film poll).
4670 different songs have received votes. I will present the Top 461. That's all the songs that have received more than 100 points.
The presentation will be in the following format:
A quote from the song
A picture related to the song (or the artist)

2011) The Black Keys- Lonely Boy
2012) Frank Ocean- Pyramids
2013) Daft Punk (featuring Pharrell)- Get Lucky
2014) Future Islands- Seasons (Waiting On You)

2017) Kendrick Lamar- HUMBLE.
2018) Janelle Monáe- Make Me Feel
