Looks like it's updating even past 90 episodes now, seeing as they had a 100th-episode special lol. I'll go through and add the new songs.

I’ve been working hard as hell on this list, man. First thing anyone says about it is I like too much stuff?! You think that makes me feel good? I definitely get your point, but these ARE my favorite albums, be damned when I heard them. Wouldn't include them here if they weren't worthy of inclusion...

Works for me! No argument from me if it means Once in a Lifetime is number one.

Henrik wrote: ↑Wed Aug 02, 2023 6:01 pm Why do you think it is unranked?

They don’t mention it being ranked in the description and give no indication that “Once in a Lifetime” is any better than the rest. (Otherwise that would mean “Pump Up the Jam” is #2, which no disrespect, love that song, but it seems unlikely).

One thing that I think is worth pointing out is how we listen to music. I haven’t looked at you list, but if you’ve become an album listener recently, I’m sure you’ve been starting with AM, AMF, and personal favorites. These are some of what are widely considered the best albums of all time, and wh...

Off the top of my head: A Tribe Called Quest, Outkast, Samia, Käärijä (helps that he’s my alarm clock), and Weird Al.

What?

I mean…I WISH, but while Germany hosted Eurovision in ‘83 (maybe that’s where the confusion came from?), that song definitely didn’t compete.

Another big update completed! Over 400 albums listened to now, 390 of which have made the cut so far. So about 97% of every album you've ever listened to, makes your list?! I tend to be kind of picky when listening to new albums, but I'm not anywhere near that number. Also, say, you're 50th least f...

Didn’t I already post this one?

So wait: when can a single-critic list be eligible and when isn't it? Cuz the Dancehall list I just saw get the boot for being single-critic struck me as getting it for weirdly arbitrary reasons, seeing as the person who wrote it is a well-known award-winning Dancehall producer who didn't include an...

StevieFan13

Wait, this isn't eligible? Even though he's a well-known figure in dancehall? And didn't include any of his own songs? I thought this only applied if it was about one artist/band.

The bots are out today!

They also did an East Coast list. Has that been posted?

Thank you Henrik! And thank you for all your organizing lately! It’s exciting to see all this happening!

Genre and soundtracks make the most sense to me

Rob, I meant the two albums I’ve listened to and that Phoenix was referring to.

About one year short of how long Prince lived. She was only on top for a few years, though the same could be said of some acts like Nirvana. (In Spin's list, "The 35 Best Albums from the Last 35 Years," in practice a very '80s and '90s list, they placed The Lion and the Cobra ahead of Nev...

You are correct! Thanks for pointing it out, the actual link is there now.

Handsome Devil is a 9. Enjoy your break, Rob!

Classic - I'll also give A Teenager in Love an 8, although I actually prefer the surprisingly-faithful Red Hot Chili Peppers cover.

I gotta appreciate the commitment to the bit, at least. Eh, I always thought the VanGoghposting was funnier. I think it’s the fact that that was a moment that is now done, but this has expanded into a long term deal. I do appreciate the sporadic lore drops, though. Knowing it's a bit and going alon...

It’s not, but it feels a bit strange that The Guardian published a top 100 list in 1996 that we’ve all been unaware of until now. Stevie, if you can find some evidence that would be great!
