P.S. This is barely connected, but I said that Taylor Swift's "All Too Well" is the song of the decade for women. I would also say "Dancing On My Own" is the song of the decade for men. Completely baffled at this take. What men are you talking about? Is this a Europe thing? The ...

At a certain point, I look at grown adults who write about pop culture for a living and see them putting things like Ariana Grande or Billie Eilish at the top of their lists and wonder how they're not at all embarrassed. Honestly a little sad at a certain point.

acroamor

I totally understand any Ariana bashing, and I can see how someone might be bored by the Jenny Lewis, but what's wrong with the new Brittany Howard? It's one of the most exciting, well-produced, and incredibly-sung releases of the year, in my view.

This so much. What on earth makes this song so much more captivating than, I don't know, any Carly Rae Jepsen song? Or something that isn't just dance-pop?

Under the Westway and Sacrilege are two tracks I'd have hoped to seen more of on these lists, glad to see them here.

acroamor

Shocked at how many actually great picks are in this. God in Chicago, Night Shift, Archie Marry Me, and Stoned and Starving in the top 50 were not something I expected. Also, I gotta say, Dancing on My Own is not one of my favorite tracks and I'll be quite disappointed if the top song of the decade ...

I gotta say, I do like all the lists that put both Big Thief albums at a high-ranking tie, even though I infinitely prefer Two Hands to U.F.O.F.

Pretty much what we all expected, although I'd have imagined Kacey Musgraves above Pistol Annies. Glad to see Waxahatchee, Sturgill Simpson, and Jason Isbell appear so high. Also, it's going to be remarkable to see how high Red will place when the next update occurs. I'm guessing the record will go ...

My favorite of any of these lists so far.

I love Mask Off. My least favorite of the EOD top 100 would be Work and We Found Love. I also live in Atlanta, so mumble rap/trap is for me here like chanson or reggaeton would be in other parts of the world.

If we're talking the longer form ideas, I'd like to see 1970s next and then do 2010s the year after, or at least do 1960s after and then do 2010s after that.

A fun idea I thought of earlier today would be to list a top album for each individual month of the 2010s. 10 years, 12 months each, for a total of 120 albums. I'll be going by the best release date I can find for any release, will probably exclude any compilations in this reckoning. Anyone else fee...

Question: The listing for #21 says "Todos los de Oh Sees y King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard." Does this mean that the entry is intended to cover the entire 2010s discographies of both bands? That would be 13 releases for the Oh Sees and 15 for King Gizzard. Sorry, but if this is indeed ...

Based on a rough translation, it looks as though they've got these 17 as their international list and this list of 18: ( https://muzikalia.com/mejores-discos-nacionales-de-la-decada-2010-2019/ ) as their national list. When combined, that makes a top 35 of the decade. Still feels small, but if they ...

So do we have a plan as to how we'll be doing EOY and EOD? I presume that EOY will occur before EOD, sometime in January. Has anyone already volunteered? I've got a new job that gives me quite a bit of time to do things like this, so I'd be able to handle either albums or songs for EOY if no one els...

So presumably that means that the ten songs for each decade are listed in order? Like the top 10 of 2010 would be numbers 1, 11, 21, 31, 41, 51, 61, 71, 81, 91? I can resort the list as such tomorrow.

Red came out right before the poptimism movement took off. I personally like many of the tracks from it ("All Too Well", "Sad Beautiful Tragic") but don't know if it's consistent on the whole. I'd be happier if the love people showing to the album as a whole was instead given to ...
