3. EDM's great 22-year-old hope Porter Robinson duets with a synthesizer-produced human on "Sad Machine."
4. London singer and producer Shura's infectious "Just Once," laughing-but-crying pop about when love ends.
5. Ariana Grande and Zedd update "Since U Been Gone" for the festival tent crowd with "Break Free."
6. U.K. producer SOPHIE redefines the gum-smacking Summer anthem with bipolar "Lemonade."
7. Brooding singer BANKS' radio-friendly builder "Beggin for Thread."
8. Sia lends her pipes and fear-killing lyrics to Dutch dance act Bingo Players' "Knock You Out."
9. Meghan Trainor's cheeky "every inch of you is perfect" anthem, "All About That Bass."
10. Spoon return to form with introspective whistle-along "Do You."
