That praise and adoration continues over a decade later, as evidenced by a Valentine’s Day-inspired Billboard article that ranked the top 50 love songs of the 21st century.

And while her signature, JAY Z-assisted hit ‘Crazy In Love’ (2003) was listed among the picks, it was ‘Top’ that ultimately took the top spot.

In celebration of Love Day, the Music Bible graded and rated 50 of what it deemed the best 21st century love songs.

At its summit was Bey’s ‘Love On Top,’ a position that saw it outrank major hits from the likes of Drake, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, and others.
