This is a hilariously random thread. The only song in my top 10,000 with Savage in the title was Little Savage by Elvis Costello, but I just bumped it out, so now I don't have any.

I echo what Daniel said! This is a great resource that I will come to whenever I want an idea for the next show to watch. And I agree that Breaking Bad deserves its place at the top. Great job, ValenN, and I’m glad you’re doing better.

Will Butler - Surrender

For me to give a song that low a rating it needs to either morally offend me That'd be more like a 1 for me. I'd forgotten I'd even awarded a 1 on here but I've done so at least once- for Yankee Doodle and that was only because I didn't consider it a proper song (nothing against anyone who thinks o...

Someone did this for songs last year. Is that going to happen again? I would love to go through both aggregates, but songs especially.

I was actually wondering the same about you and "Strange Fruit." That's my favorite of all of these and the important subject matter alone makes it an odd first elimination. But to each their own ... I did not take it out, but I am not a real big "Strange Fruit" fan. I have no i...

Interesting, I thought 2017 was an exceptionally deep year. Yes, there wasn't an NFR!-level album, but it does have a Seventeen-level song (I like Green Light even more). There are tons of albums from 2017 in my top 500, although I agree most of them don't represent the peak for those artists, which...

I was all set with my least favorite songs of the top 10 (Midnight City and Runaway) taking the spot, so seeing my #3, Video Games, winning was a very nice surprise I must say. Obviously I support this victory. This was an amazing roll-out, Schüttelbirne! I love the attention to detail. I can also ...

In case this is of interest to anyone, I compiled all the lists below (just added our decade poll), in addition to 53 AMers' all-time lists that include 2010s songs, plus six other such lists from users on other sites. Below the sources is the resulting top 200! Acclaimed Music Forum 2010 Song Poll ...

Great job, Schüttelbirne! This list is better than all the critics' lists, in my opinion. I loved seeing Bloodbuzz Ohio at #4, and I didn't expect Video Games at #1 either.

“Bloodbuzz Ohio” is the only song in the top 11 that I would be totally unsurprised if it didn’t place in the top 100. It’s a great song, but I had no idea it had this much love on the forum. Well it is about to win the 2010 tournament, where it already beat Dancing on My Own and Runaway. I didn't ...

I love your list, Toni! Hope it counts.

To me, the biggest thing that sets the 2010s apart is that it’s by far the best decade ever for women in music, which is enough to make up for rock being less pervasive recently.

andyd1010

I think the last two decades have even better depth than the 1970s. The 1960s were the best at the peak, but there wasn't as much depth especially at the beginning.

1. 2010s
2. 2000s
3. 1960s
4. 1970s
5. 1990s
6. 1980s
7. 1950s

I didn't vote for Trump, I won't vote for him, I had no intention of pushing propaganda for him, and I don't think that categorization is fair. But you're right that this isn't the ideal place for this kind of discussion, so I still should have known better. I believe that was my first political pos...

My take on this is one of dumbfounded resignation. My whole body and mind prays and hopes that he will be kicked out of office unceremoniously by the masses (although there are very fundamental questions on what will happen between the 3rd of November and 20th of January...) But there is a very rea...

I loved Jessie Ware's new album What's Your Pleasure on first listen. It's definitely her best album since Devotion, and it's probably even better than that album. Starting off with an extended version of my SOTY to date "Spotlight", it's 12 tracks of straight late 70s-inspired, immaculat...

Great rollout of a fascinating list. I'm sorry I didn't participate. I was also initially surprised to see Whiplash so high; I love the film, but wasn't expecting it to be the 4th highest ranked for the entire decade. The more I think about it, though, the more I realize how hard it is to shake the...

Ooh, I like it! Doesn't look like an audience vote either (at least I hope not). My one complaint is that having Once in a Lifetime behind Demons, the worst Imagine Dragons song, is kind of a disgrace. You’re gonna have to explain to me how Demons is worse than Thunder. Honestly, I feel like I can’...

Agreed with Henrik, nicely written! I do disagree with one point though. I don’t think it was a conservative message at the end - I think Bong was showing that it was unrealistic for him to achieve that degree of wealth simply through hard work. The film made it appear like everything was coming to ...

Terrace Martin & Denzel Curry - Pig Feet (feat. Kamasi Washington) I only nominated this last week, so it would need to be seconded to be re-nominated. Whoops, totally overlooked that. Has Laura Marling - Held Down been nominated? If not, and if Pig Feet doesn't get seconded, I'll nominate that.

How one person after another can put ”Pumped Up Kicks” above ”Real Death” is beyond me. Real Death has the most powerful lyrics of the ten songs. But its music does not bring out the power of those lyrics for me. It's very sparse, which can work for me in a song with a similarly somber tone like Ce...

I would submit a list for this. I've listened to a fair amount of new albums this year.
