“Treat People With Kindness” ( Fine Line) Why it falls near the bottom of this list for me is the lyrics that come off a bit like he is blaming women for being stuck in bad relationships, despite almost certainly having the opposite intentions. The sound of “Boyfriends” is fine enough, with a nice acoustic melody to back it. The guitar solo is nice, but it’s not enough to save the song from a last-place finish. The chorus is just the word “woman” six times with some “la-la-la-la-la-la” additions, and there is this weird, duck-like noise throughout the lengthy track that drives me insane. I would argue that there are no bad songs in Harry Styles’ solo catalog, but “Woman” is at the bottom of the list for being his least interesting and most annoying. So, this is a formal apology to whoever’s beloved song ended up being ranked far too low. Trying to rank songs from his newest album released so recently was also a challenge. Styles has been extremely consistent in five years as a solo artist, and that made for a discography extremely difficult to put in order. There are no songs from the One Direction era here, no unreleased cuts and no other songs past what has shown up on the albums. In honor of Harry’s House, we went through his three solo efforts and ranked his songs from worst to best. In his 35 combined songs, Styles has diversified his sound in a big way from his One Direction days, creating songs that can fit in the folk, pop or rock genres with ease.

Following the release of his newest record on May 20, Styles has released three albums: 2017’s Harry Styles, 2019’s Fine Line and 2022’s Harry’s House. It has been more than six years since One Direction last performed together, and while all five members have released solo music, Harry Styles has managed to stand out.
