[zircona1]

So my top songs list is the way it is b/c of drumming. I've almost mastered #1 and #2, and 3-5 are fun to play.

Top artists:

1. The Kinks
2. Prince

Number one song perplexes me: Ted Leo Ballad of the Sin Eater. I am guessing that it was on repeat at some point and I stopped listening.

588 artists

1. Lady Gaga

1. ratboys - my hands grow
2. harry styles - adore you
3. pinegrove - phase
4. u2 - zooropa
5. 1975 - me and you together song

i legitimately have no idea how the harry styles song is the second most played? something seriously wacky going on. i have listened to "lawyers guns and money" more times in the last 3 weeks than i've ever listened to "adore you" in my life.

artists:
prince
u2 
pearl jam
the 1975
green day (?)

Glad to see THE DAN making some inroads on the Board.

You might think "wow Krentist logged a lot of van before he became an anti-lockdown nut"

Well, folks, I should clarify

Narratives are crumbling. Next you're gonna say you're Libertarian or something.

Top 5 Boarders who didn’t listen to a black person this year:

[krentist]

Tom Morello is black otherwise brain would be my #1 far and away

[teekoh]

As usual my listening pattern leads to some weird results. Because of the length of the Blu & Exile album my top 3 artists were Blu & Exile, Blu, Exile. *shrug*

4 and 5 were RAP Ferreira and Insect Ark, who also ended up with all of my top songs due to album length.

I don't really use it. I made a regional playlist under our band account, though.

[fiveiron83321]

I started doing those whole discography binges this year, so that skewed my artists compared to normal years.

1. Echo & the Bunnymen
2. Spoon
3. Rise Against
4. New Order
5. Okkervil River

Songs:

1. Orville Peck - "Turn to Hate"
2. STACEY - "Far Away"
3. STACEY - "One Woman"
4. Soccer Mommy - "circle the drain"
5. Phoebe Bridgers - "Kyoto"

[monasterymonochrome]

It's back!

For new releases, my songs playlist was dominated by Katy Kirby, Ryley Walker, and Wild Pink. Coltrane's all over it too, plus a healthy smattering of my favorite jazz. Its been a good year!

Edit: having trouble with embedding the correct playlist - will do so later

[neader]

Kanye
Japanese Breakfast
Avalanches
J Dilla
Tyler

Pretty good top 5
