If this meets the criteria, are we calling it eligible, Henrik?

Not in the All Time list, but new EOY lists are included in the 21st century portion.

A reminder that this exists if you want to participate!

I don't even think the Kanye snub was intentional. When you only have 1 album from 2006-2020 on your list, the chances that it's a Kanye album are going to be slim. The real crime this list has committed is, again, only have ONE album from 2006-2020. Forget about Kanye for a minute. No Sound of Sil...

I'll add my own list eventually, but I've been thinking about Game of Thrones a lot lately. Or haven't, I guess. It's interesting to me how after the last season I just lost all interest in it. Even with other shows I've seen (Breaking Bad, The Leftovers, etc.) I find myself coming back to thinking ...

Henrik, is this one going to be eligible?

Holden

I see this source has been included in the past (2010, etc) but not 2018 or 2019. Is it eligible?

Holden

If it’s alright, I’d like to change mine to Dan Deacon - Mystic Familiar

Holden

Alright, so I went through and treated each year that has music included on AM as an artist to find the most acclaimed years of music. But before I reveal the full list, I'm going to go through some other stats, while including the changes between this update and last. Key: 2020 Rank | 2018 Rank | Y...

Thanks for the update, Holden. A few take-aways: - I'm pleasantly surprised to see both Sault albums still doing well, with Black Is even rising a few spots in this update. I thought their placement on the initial list may have just been an outlier from a few lists, but it appears it will last. Can...

Anyhoo, how 'bout the fact that Sturgill Simpson finished one spot ahead of Harry Styles on that Uproxx list? Anybody? Anybody? Uh, guys? ... Honestly, never really been a Harry Styles person, so I'm happy to see that poptimism hasn't elevated him above some more obscure picks. It's very funny to m...

I really don't want to continue this discussion, but I will give my opinion about Moonlight. Most of the people (at least in my country) didn't like the movie. It has got 7.4 on imdb. I also watch movies based on TSPDT, but it is clear that the academy awards' critics are different from other criti...

The first 10 album gap immediately turned into a 15 gap: 799. Michael Jackson - Bad 800. X - Wild Gift 801. MC5 - Back in the USA 802. Van Morrison - Too Late to Stop Now 803. Les Rita Misouko - The No Comprendo 804. Albert King - Born Under a Bad Sign 805. Anderson .Paak - Malibu 806. Them - The A...

Holden

Arsalan, I'm very into film (especially the Oscars) and I feel that no one really questions the selection of Moonlight as the best of 2016. It's near the top on TSPDT. Also, not trying to say that you are explicitly biased here, but I feel as though we are still seeing your way of thinking that peop...

Alright, here is the update! (Note: The Guardian and Albumism are super obnoxious but to save time later on I have added in their lists as is so this is obviously not a perfect list, but hey it's just an update so whatever.)

This list wasn't included last year, is there a reason Slate wouldn't be eligible?

Holden

The Top 4 seem pretty set in stone as of right now, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Dylan taken over by Dua Lipa/Taylor Swift. I would say Phoebe Bridgers is overperforming, at least compared to my expectations.

Holden

Glad to see Grounds so high but Physical is NOT the best song on Future Nostalgia.

Holden

I’ll post an update tomorrow but for however much everyone thought FTBC was going to dominate the EOY lists, it is assuredly not doing that. It is near/at the top, but dominating it is not.

Holden

It is indeed only 99....

Holden

Something I haven’t seen a lot of people mention is Royals being in the Top 100. It definitely belongs there! How crazy would it have seemed a few years ago that Royals is now one spot ahead of Get Lucky? After the initial update that featured those songs, Get Lucky was 46 and Royals was 312; even ...

I mean, does anyone remember This is America sweeping the Best Song of 2018 (or whatever year it was) lists because of its video more than the song itself?

6. MUNA - About U
Super solid pop album! I'm going to give it a 7/10.

Holden

lol Will we? I could easily name a hundred songs I like more than Smells Like Teen Spirit released since it came out; I'm not even sure I consider it the best song on Nevermind anymore. I'd have to definitely agree with BleuPanda. I think that the only good attitude to have towards music is the ide...

Thanks for aknowledging my favorite album of the year, Notes On A Conditional Form Notes on a Conditional Form is currently sitting at 52 on the EOY Spreadsheet. I'd say that despite its lackluster reviews it will definitely make Top 100 and definitely be Bubbling Under whenever the new update is r...

The Rolling Stone albums list is honestly better than I expected. I didn't even know that Four Tet released an album this year. I think that RS is getting a little better in the album category with each passing year. I don't think folklore is the album of the year, but it's not a bad choice (and cer...

Holden

It's alright. I like that they are chosing a less common choice for Fiona Apple's top song, and many of their picks from top albums are well deserved. I think that the inclusion of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" is abundantly strange, though.

Babel won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 2013 (beating Blunderbuss, El Camino, and Channel Orange). All of these albums have nominee listed properly, but Babel doesn't have its win listed.

Ooh La La might be the worst song on RJT4. That hook is just so annoying. What a strange pick. Looking at these songs lists so far, it's as if Jessie Ware didn't release any music this year. I was hoping songs from What's Your Pleasure would be all over these lists. Funny you say that about Ooh La ...
