Man, you're not wrong :thumbsup:

BUT, I'm still interested in your list - I genuinely enjoy reading lists of what people have enjoyed each year.....

CorgiRegisteredFriend · Dec 8, 2017

Top of my list.

footychick · Dec 8, 2017

Big Shaq - Man's Not Hot :lol:

SicilianHungary · Dec 8, 2017

I have a playlist of over 100 tunes, but very near the top would be;

Mellotron · Dec 8, 2017

The National - Empire Line (most of the album could qualify)
Slowdive - No Longer Making Time
Paramore - Told You So
Lorde - Green Light
Geotic - Billionth Remnant (one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard)
Baths - Yeoman (perfect synth pop, inventive and very playful)
nine inch nails - The Lovers
Aldous Harding - Imagining My Man
Grizzly Bear - Mourning Sound
The XX - On Hold
Foo Fighters - Run (not a big Foos fan but this song, and the way it comes in from the track before on the album, is shiver-inducing. In a good way.)
Thundercat - Them Changes (watch a live video of this)
Father John Misty - Things It Would Be Helpful To Know Before The Revolution

CorgiRegisteredFriend · Dec 8, 2017

Most relevant track of the year...

Hmmm - you've made me remember that I was considering Ballad Of The Dying Man for my list. I'll check out Geotic and Baths - not familiar with those tunes.

jonnyrovers · Dec 8, 2017

Lists of 10 make my brain hurt. Too much to consider. 3 from me:

Sparks - Edith Piaf (said it better than me)
Radiohead - I Promise
Courtney Barnett & Kurt Vile - Continental Breakfast

Oh dear, there's another one I probably should have included....

Sussex Nomad · Dec 8, 2017

I couldn't name one, not one track from this year!!!

Cannot believe I forgot;

Queens of the Stoneage - Feet Don't Fail Me - perfect groove rock from a band at the absolute top of their game
Queens of the Stoneage - Villains of Circumstance - my favourite chorus of the year. Hits right in from left field and there's something oddly 80s about it's beauty.

This thread reminds me of when the away team make their substitutions ...

good suggestions on this thread chaps, Loving Paramore, QoTS, Alvvays and especially that Slowdive Album. Bought me back to my shoegazing days.
