As 2023 rolls in, let’s look back on the songs we all grew up listening to—you know, the kind of tunes we usually hear at our yearly family gatherings thanks to the ubiquitous videoke in your house. These are the songs that have stood the test of time, whether for their catchy and fun tunes, heart wrenching and deep lyrics, how much they influenced the music we now listen to, or because they were immortalized as iconic songs that continue to influence the artists we all love.
