This is what I came up with when I needed to submit a top 10 songs of the year for something: Noah Gundersen – “Audrey Hepburn” Bruce Springsteen – “Moonlight Motel” Jimmy Eat World – “Diamond” Kalie Shorr – “Lullaby” Riley Green – “I Wish Grandpas Never Died” Taylor Swift – “Soon You’ll Get Better” Emily Scott Robinson – “The Dress” The Dangerous Summer – “Blind Ambition” Hailey Whitters – “The Days” Cassadee Pope – “I’ve Been Good”
Almost had Caroline Spence's "Wait On The Wine" and "Angels Or Los Angeles" on my list; I believe I checked out her stuff earlier this year based on your recommendation, so thanks for that
That's a very good record that kind of fell out of rotation for me over the summer. I need to revisit it.
It's been a while since I've checked the full thing out as well (those two tracks, plus "Til You Find One", were the ones I put on my 2019 Spotify playlist at the time), so checking again this morning
last year I officially gave up on doing proper numbered lists. doing them in groups is much easier on my brain.
My answer, personally, is: I force myself. Right now I'm making myself go through my top 20-30 right now to put the final touches on the order when I'd rather just have Boy With Luv on repeat all day.
Something like this 1. Charly Bliss - Young Enough 2. The Dangerous Summer - Mother Nature 3. The Japanese House - Good At Falling 4. Bad Religion - Age of Unreason 5. Jimmy Eat World - Surviving 6. BROCKHAMPTON - GINGER 7. The Maine - You Are OK 8. Pup - Morbid Stuff 9. Vampire Weekend - Father of the Bride 10. Billie Eilish - When we all fall asleep, where do we go? 11. The Menzingers - Hello Exile 12. Kevin Abstract - ARIZONA BABY 13. Red Hearse - Red Hearse 14. Mannequin Pussy - Patience 15. Marianas Trench - Phantoms Lots of albums this year where I LOVED 3-4 tracks but didn't click with the rest.
1) Everything Is Fine by Much The Same 2) Interrobang by Bayside 3) Nine by Blink-182 4) Restless Heart, Keep Running by Capstan 5) From The Screen To Your Stereo Vol 3 by New Found Glory 6) The Act by The Devil Wears Prada I believe that's about the extent of everything I've even listened to this year as well
Unranked. Based on which songs I now like the most, after listening to my mega playlist throughout the year. It’s a more “international” list than is usual here, for those that are interested. Album list is coming after Cam’ron dropped.
My decade top 10: 1. Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy 2. O’Brother - Garden Window 3. Thrice - To Be Everywhere Is to Be Nowhere 4. Carly Rae Jepsen - EMOTION 5. Young Thug - JEFFREY 6. Killer Mike - RAP Music 7. Manchester Orchestra - A Black Mile to the Surface 8. Julien Baker - Sprained Ankle 9. Kanye West - Yeezus 10. Pianos Become the Teeth - Wait for Love
Looks like I'm a tad late to the heat of the discussions, but here's my top 20 from this year: 20. Heart Attack Man - 'Fake Blood' 19. A Will Away - 'Soup' 18. Turnover - 'Altogether' 17. Free Throw - 'What's Past is Prolouge' 16. Great Grandpa - 'Four of Arrows' 15. Macseal - 'Super Enthusiast' 14. Angel Du$t - 'Pretty Buff' 13. Jetty Bones - '--' 12. Pup - 'Morbid Stuff' 11. The Dangerous Summer - 'Mother Nature' 10. Aaron West and the Roaring Twenties - 'Routine Maintenance' 9. Bad Books - 'III' 8. Chris Farren - 'Born Hot' 7. Charly Bliss - 'Young Enough' 6. Jimmy Eat World - 'Surviving' 5. The Menzingers - 'Hello Exile' 4. Somos - 'Prison on a Hill' 3. La Dispute - 'Panorama' 2. Oso Oso - 'Basking in the Glow' 1. Bayside - 'Interrobang' There we actually quite a few albums I liked that didn't make this, but please if anyone wants to rec me something that you don't see on here that you think I'd like, I would greatly appreciate that. Thoroughly enjoyed this year, that being said. Ton of quality.
Probably something like this: Tim Baker - Forever Overhead Noah Gundersen - Lover Strange Ranger - Remembering the Rockets PUP - Morbid Stuff Bad Books - III Bon Iver - i,i Turnover - Altogether The Tallest Man on Earth - I Love You, It’s a Fever Dream Better Oblivion Community Center - Better Oblivion Community Center Pedro the Lion - Phoenix
I started listening to this a couple weeks ago, and it hasn't fully clicked with me yet. There's no denying it's good, but I think I need to sit down with it a bit more.
