15 Best Conan Gray Songs: A Guide Across His Albums

There is no definitive ranking of Conan Gray’s best songs, but these 15 picks show why his catalog resonates: vivid, diaristic writing moves from unrequited love and heartbreak to restless, brighter pop. This is an editorial selection, not a popularity chart, and it spans the different sounds and eras of his albums.

15 Conan Gray songs worth knowing

1. “Heather”

A defining portrait of unrequited love, “Heather” captures the sting of watching someone choose another person. Its restrained arrangement leaves room for the song’s sharpest idea: the narrator envies the seemingly effortless qualities that make Heather beloved.

2. “Wish You Were Sober”

Bright, buoyant production contrasts with a frustrating romantic situation. Gray has described the song as being about someone who revealed their feelings only when drunk, and the mixed emotions that created. That tension gives the track its bittersweet charge. Gray’s Kid Krow album page anchors it in his debut-era catalog.

3. “Comfort Crowd”

A gentler, more intimate choice from Kid Krow, “Comfort Crowd” centers on loneliness and the need for company. Its warmth makes it a useful counterpoint to the album’s more dramatic romantic songs.

4. “The Cut That Always Bleeds”

This song turns a breakup into a wound that keeps reopening. The melodramatic image suits Gray’s direct writing, while the rising pop arrangement gives the hurt an urgent, almost theatrical scale.

5. “Maniac”

“Maniac” takes a sharper, more playful approach to an ex who paints the narrator as unstable. Its punchy pop sound and wry perspective make it one of the most immediately energetic songs in this selection.

6. “Memories”

“Memories” is about wanting an old relationship to remain in the past. Gray explained the feeling plainly: “I actually do wish you would stay in my memories and not exist in my present. I don’t want you right now. Go.” The song’s controlled pop build gives that boundary-setting line extra force. Apple Music’s Superache editorial includes Gray’s commentary.

7. “The Exit”

One of Gray’s most vivid heartbreak songs, “The Exit” focuses on the lonely feeling of being left behind while everyone else seems to move on. Gray described its central image as standing “at the exit” and wondering how others can continue after being heartbroken. Its slow-building scale fits that suspended, unresolved mood. Apple Music’s Superache editorial also features his explanation of the song.

8. “Astronomy”

“Astronomy” uses the distance between celestial bodies to describe two people growing apart. The metaphor gives the song a spacious, reflective mood, and it shows Gray turning an intimate relationship into a scene that feels almost cosmic.

9. “Jigsaw”

Where some of Gray’s songs blame a former partner, “Jigsaw” turns inward. It traces the cost of reshaping yourself to please someone else, making its confessional intensity a key part of Superache’s emotional range.

10. “Yours”

“Yours” dwells on the imbalance of loving someone who does not return that commitment. Its plainspoken ache makes it a strong fit for listeners drawn to Gray’s more vulnerable ballads.

11. “Never Ending Song”

Released in 2023, “Never Ending Song” brings a sleek, synth-led pop sound to the frustration of a relationship that keeps circling back. Gray described it as a turbulent relationship that persists despite attempts to erase it. Universal Music Japan’s 2023 announcement includes his description.

12. “Lonely Dancers”

“Lonely Dancers” is a brighter, movement-ready pick from the Found Heaven era. Universal Music Japan announced the song in February 2024; its placement here reflects the album’s shift toward an ’80s-inspired pop palette rather than a claim about chart performance. Universal Music Japan’s announcement identifies the release.

13. “Alley Rose”

A dramatic, emotionally expansive song from Found Heaven, “Alley Rose” carries Gray’s heartbreak writing into the album’s more stylized pop world. It makes the list for the way it connects his familiar intensity with a different production approach.

14. “Caramel”

“Caramel” adds another shade to Found Heaven’s glossy, ’80s-leaning sound. Its inclusion helps represent the album’s deliberate departure from the more diaristic approach associated with Gray’s earlier records.

15. “The Best”

“The Best” represents the more diaristic writing of Wishbone. The Associated Press described the 2025 album as a return to that mode after Found Heaven’s ’80s-inspired pop turn. Gray’s catalog is strongest when both sides are heard together: the carefully staged pop textures and the direct, personal writing. The Associated Press’s review of Wishbone provides the album context.

How these picks reflect Gray’s musical shifts

The list moves from the youthful romantic conflicts of Kid Krow through Superache’s heartbreak-heavy writing, then into the brighter synth-pop of Found Heaven and the more diaristic approach associated with Wishbone. That range is the point: a list drawn from one era alone would miss an important part of Gray’s catalog.

The choices are based on lyrical subject, mood, and how each song represents its album’s sound—not streaming totals, chart positions, or a claim that one track is objectively superior. The Associated Press identifies Wishbone as Gray’s fourth album and gives its release date as August 15, 2025. Its review also describes the contrast between that album and Found Heaven.
