Vote Now - The Current's Top 89 songs of 2023 ballot

The year has flown by, but before it ends, let’s look back on the year in music with the Top 89 of 2023. Vote for your 10 favorite songs of the year at The Current. The Current will tally the votes and count them down on New Year’s Eve.

Which artists topped your list this year? Was it Mitski? Or maybe Killer Mike? Boygenius? The Arcs? When you vote, you’ll be entered for a chance to win a Foo Fighters Prize Pack – two pairs of premium seats to their show at Target Field on July 28 and cool swag. Cast your ballot in the Top 89 of 2023 before the poll closes on Monday, Dec. 18.
