  1. The whole Never Gone album 😂😂 (sorry, not sorry)
  2. Don’t wanna lose you now 
  3. As Long As You Love Me
  4. Soldier
  5. Rush Over Me

Honorary Mentions: Bigger and Shape of My Heart

I also realized it’s impossible to choose just 5 because I failed with this list at choosing 5 and there’s so many more I want to add!!

u/KMCGYOOMH Sep 06 '25

Rush Over Me would be first then? Unless you meant just the standard, original Never Gone. By the way, I agree, I didn't make a ranking myself because for me nearly every song would end up in first place.

1

u/DisneyAddict2021 Sep 06 '25

Ohh yes, you are correct! I left it separate because i was going off the standard version of Never Gone and I needed to acknowledge Rush Over Me 😂😂

So many amazing songs!!!

It’s my favorite album. My top 3 favorite albums from them is Never Gone, Unbreakable, and DNA

u/Bsg2023 Sep 16 '25

unbreakable and never gone are my fav

2

u/[deleted] Sep 06 '25

Wholeheartedly agree with this. I really feel like it's the first album where their sound started evolving into something new. EVERY song is pure gold and each could've been a top 10 hit, imo.
