I enjoyed it. My second favorite album of the year so far, behind Collapsed in Sunbeams, and pretty far ahead of everything else, though certainly not as good as NFR! The standout track for me is Dark but Just a Game, so it's interesting that that hasn't been mentioned at all. It has a fantastic cho...

Jens Lekman – Black Cab: 8

This is more a measure of how big a part of my life the game was than a more objective assessment of its quality. I haven't bought a game in a decade, so this list skews heavily to the games I happened to have growing up. 1 | Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 | Super Smash Bros. Melee 3 | Super Smash B...

There's only one album where I would rate every song at least a 7, and that's Funeral, where every song is at least an 8 for me.

Have you included any of the Basketball Reference rankings? Like this one? https://www.basketball-reference.com/leaders/ws_career.html Since the NBA season is still ongoing, I'm waiting until after this year's playoffs to add any statistical-related rankings (PER, VORP, WS, etc.).

Jessie Ware | Spotlight vs. Phoebe Bridgers | Kyoto This is like having Duke playing Kentucky in the first round. Not this year it isn't! haha. https://twitter.com/ESPNStatsInfo/status/1370223480894001153 It's pretty funny that not only did Kentucky and Duke both miss the tournament for the first t...

I generally agree with the list. Generally, because I have one tiny complaint. I would put Scotty Pippen in the top ten. Not top twenty, but top ten. And not having him in the top twenty is kinda offending but I will gladly hear your arguments. Top 20 is certainly arguable, but top 10 is a high bar...

Love your nominations, Romain, both Carnage as well as The Last Man On Earth are straight masterpieces. Yes, thank you Romain!

I've always used iTunes (now called "Music") for my music, but recently some friends and family members have asked me to share my 10,000 favorite songs on Spotify. I googled it and followed the instructions here but it only found 1,162 of the songs, which is pretty pathetic. Anyone know a ...

The higher the better. I think 100 is too few. I'll probably post a 10,000-song list.

Edit: Nevermind, I thought we were talking about maximums. For minimum I don't mind 100 too much, although I would encourage people to post longer lists.

Is Fiona Apple winning really a done deal? Maybe I'm overreacting to the song results, but I wouldn't be shocked to see Punisher win. As someone who ranked "I Know the End" and "Kyoto" as #1 and 2, Punisher is still only my #3 album for the year. This could easily be a case wher...

Haha, I voted for Aries, Ode to the Mets, Anything, Describe, Heavy Balloon, and had Kerosene! at 6 and Levitating at 4, so you're welcome for all the surprises!

My policy re: Don't Start Now and other songs that placed in the 2019 poll is that I'll still tally the results as if they were eligible for the spreadsheet, but I won't include them in the final rollout. Substantially easier on my end to do it that way than the ask everyone to edit their lists. I ...

What don't people like about the Jessie Ware album? Even if you disagree that it's one of the best albums of the year, it's hard for me to picture anyone outright hating it. I found it really uneven. Spotlight is arguably the song of the year, Remember Where You Are is fantastic, there are a couple...

Thanks for running this, Holden!

What's so polarizing about Thunder Road??

Funny that I come across as a Dylan hater here. He's my No. 7 artist of all time! It's just that 5 of the 6 I like more are also here.

Do you guys not at least enjoy the guitar solo? I love that song. I understand the hate for Imagine's lyrics, but the hate for Hotel California is a mystery to me. The only sense I can make of it is that it was incredibly popular and overplayed, and people resent it for that... And also that the res...

Wow, Imagine got torched.

I'm thankful for the Get Low error, because it allowed Come Dancing by The Kinks to slip into the top 10,000. Not sure if I would have discovered it otherwise. Great tune, and this line is pretty funny. In the hallway, in anticipation He didn't know the night would end up in frustration He'd end up ...

Since I listened to the full top 10,000 from the previous update, doubtful I have a streak unless ten new songs somehow entered all in a row. I'm surprised that there are multiple people on the forum that have done this! I'm no completionist, but I feel like I listen to a lot of AM-ranked music, an...

FYI I updated my post from December 7 several times as I was going through, as I found missing songs in the history section. I finished now. There are likely more year discrepancies too, but I probably won't revisit those for awhile.

Solid list! Curious how you factor in lists that come out while players are still active. For instance, many of these came out before LeBron added another title this year, which would cause some to rank him higher now.

”Little Lion Man” is on the ”Love Your Ground” EP from 2008, but maybe that’s a different version? Ah.

Well one other definite theme is the critics sleeping on Pink Floyd, which has always seemed odd to me given how revered they are on all other corners of the musical internet.
