Whoaaaaaaa 2020!!! Here's last year's list. Made it through 279 albums last year, which was a good planned decreased from the year before. Hopefully it decreases more this year too.

Musical Goals for this Year:

• Read along with more lyrics. Inspired by Cherie Hu, I want to double-down on music as literature in 2020. I will do a read-along of the lyrics to every album that gets a ++ rating on my list this year.
• Better segment songs. I believe that music will increasingly move in the direction of conditional listening (aka "I'm doing X, so I'll listen to Y"). I want to do a better job of choosing what that sounds like for myself by creating more robust genre/life playlists.
• Write more. I fell behind on write-ups of my favorite albums and songs at the end of each month, so I'll definitely do try to do more of that. (Click the month title below to link off to them.)

Rating Scale:

+++ = Immediate 'EOTY' Worthy
++ = Love
+ = Like
* = Indifferent
# = Dislike
