Best of Rock and Pop 2019 "Icy" by Kim Petras

Best of Rock and Pop 2019 was "Icy" by Kim Petras

Kim Petras has Best Song Twice, her song
"Icy" is No. 1 on my 2019 Rock and Pop Songs Lists

I didn't know if this would happen during the time I published my songs lists here... one song at No. 1 on both lists for the year. The song "Icy" by Kim Petras is a great song. The last couple of days, before I decided that it was the best song of 2019, I was doing many, many comparisons near the top of the lists. Ashley O and Kim Petras held on for a tie at No. 1 of the rock songs list and there are two #1's the way I'm doing it. "Right Where I Belong" a rock list No. 1 was close to getting back into things in pop and was compared again for the 2019 pop songs list but I decided it was more of a rock song or closer to what I think are songs on that list. "Circles" by Post Malone also was close and I kept listening back and forth with Kim's songs and then "Fear Inoculum" by TOOL went past one of Petras' songs, "All I Do Is Cry". "Fear Inoculum", magnificent progressive rock/progressive metal, came into the final day of my listening/comparisons of songs tied with "Icy" but I felt "Icy" was a fraction better for best on the pop songs list, maybe it was the emotion or the singing, but "Fear Inoculum" had a lot of great elements as well. It came down to not very much but that's the way I like my lists, great songs in that tough top 5, Petras had three of those songs (4 songs in the top 10, 5 songs total on the list) and "Icy" at No. 1.
