Top 10s of Ne-Yo | Ne-Yo Top 10

The following is a compilation of Ne-Yo's Top Ten Songs.
Miss Independent- Miss Independent was the second single released from Ne-Yo's third album Year of the Gentleman. It's one of Ne-Yo's best songs because its a great R&B track that gives tribute to the independent spirit of females from generations past and present.

Mad- Mad is a heart wrenching ballad also from Ne-Yo's third Album, Year of the Gentleman.It's a very relatable song since all of us have experienced that uncomfortable situation between our partners after an argument. But deep down we all want to make things better in the end.

Do You- Ne-Yo's Do You is a smooth R&B track from his Because of You album that recounts our residual feelings for our ex-partners after a breakup.

So Sick- Ne-Yo continues his familiar theme of trying to get over your ex. This was from Ne-Yo's debut album In My Own Words.

Sexy Love- Sexy Love is a fun, smooth track that you can still sway your hips to in the club or in your house.

Closer- Closer was the first single released from Ne-Yo's third album. It was a Billboard chart topper and a hit in all the clubs worldwide.

Go On Girl- This track is from Ne-Yo's sophomore album, Because of You about unrequited love.

Stop This World- This track is also from Ne-Yo's third album, Year of the Gentleman. It was supposed to be released as the second single but was bypassed by Miss Independent. This song has sweet melodies and Ne-Yo's smooth voice that makes this track one of my favorites.

Time- This song is from Ne-Yo's In my Own Words album. It's a ballad with soulful words. It also has an inspirational message that relates to everyone.

When You're Mad- From In My Own Words, this track is one of Ne-Yo's top ten songs because it displays the artist's signature smooth swagger and beautiful songwriting.
