These are my top five songs of 2025. One, two, step in the box (get jiggy).” There’s no way to be in a bad mood when you’re hearing this hip house revival. “Gnarly.” The growth of car songs? “Gnaaaarly.” And the best song of 2025: “Caramel” by Sleep Token. Every single one adds together to an uproarious, glorious, hilarious blend that’s a perfect way to cap this year off.
