we're gonna have our 1 seed overall

phoebe over whitney. wild and crazy times.

 

Not even the best song on that album

 

It's pretty fucking good. And feels very definitive. Idk if it will make my list, but I'm not mad at it.

 

Chinese Satallite almost made my list.

 

I listened to way more non-English music (which I haven’t included on these lists unless the songs are internationally known) than English music this decade so far, and also it’s been a shaky ass decade, so I just randomly picked four songs that I really fucked with.

01. Banky W. - Final Say
02. Benny The Butcher - Sink
03. Stormzy - Hide & Seek
04. The 1975 - Me & You Together Song*

*I do not care about that band at all usually, but I really fuck with this song.

 

“I Know the End” is maybe my fifth favorite on Punisher, but I feel like that song was/is definitive of the era in a way.

 

Started with Bobby, ending with Bobby

i think i expected it to be chinese satellite or kyoto, if anything. i also didn’t really expect her to do that well in this after the albums didn’t really hit in album polls

 

I like I Know The End and Chinese Satellite basically equally. If I’d filled out my list two weeks from now it might’ve switched. They’re both awesome songs
