I don't really love this list, but this is a pretty good approximation of my favourite singles released so far this decade.

I am actually compiling my own list on this topic. I might need to do some review of the singles of the decade, because my current list doesn't thrill me.

I feel the same way about this list. I just did it off the top of my head, so I'm not even sure every song on here was released as a single. "Middle Distance Runner", for example, was released as a 12" but I'm not sure it was an official single.

I'm also sad I forgot about "Collagen Rock".

El -P and Mr. Lif, hell yeah. "Stepfather Factory", in particular, is probably my favorite single of the decade thus far.
