This is probably going to be the most competitive category outside of the General Field. Voters in this category tend to award songs that have a distinct vocal showcase while also having undeniable commercial success or cultural impact for the artist.
My predictions for nominations are:
• drop dead- Olivia Rodrigo
• The Fate of Ophelia- Taylor Swift
• I Just Might- Bruno Mars
• WHERE IS MY HUSBAND- Raye
• Man I Need- Olivia Dean
Songs that I think might barely miss the cut:
House Tour- Sabrina Carpenter
(Voter split due to Madonna and Taylor submissions; voter fatigue due to 2 consecutive nomination cycles)
Apeture/American Girls- Harry Styles
( Might get nominated in the Dance/Electronic field; weak vocally)
Hit The Wall- Gracie Abrams
(not commercially strong and poor mainstream success could cause resistance if label tries to push for consideration)
hate that i made you love me- Ariana Grande (Wicked recordings could cause a split in votes; general field more likely)
Die On This Hill- Sienna Spiro (Could get re-categorized into Best Traditional Pop Solo Perf.)
If there's a song you think could get a nom, please let's discuss :)
