Strange because "Redbone" was released in November 2016. I am under the impression that they picked "Redbone" (which is a fantastic and unfortunately overlooked song) because the song has recently received a notable Grammy nomination

Yes, "Redbone" is really good ... And, "Me and Your Mama," though praised last year, is being overlooked in the lists.

Ooh, I don’t like seeing Look What You Made Me Do being called the “best” anything.

Perfect - this list gives a huge spreadsheet boost to these two adjacent entries, one of which has been suffering from coming out too early and one from coming out too late.
