I was wondering which Lana song you would choose. Out of all the fantastic songs she released this year, I'd probably select "White Dress" (edging out "Thunder") because of the wonderfully bizarre vocal choices she made.
I’m just realizing it’s been a year since your 2020 best lists! I mean I know that’s obvious haha, but kind of can’t believe it’s been a year already. Can’t wait to listen to that playlist on repeat
what a great list! we share a lot, I must say my favorite song of the year is ‘Crush’ by Ethel Cain, I love the ethereal emo rock vibe it has, and her ep has been one of my favorite projects this year
A few standouts for me this year were "Lonely Street" and "Soberish" by Liz Phair, "Chaise Longue" by Wet Leg, and "Head Cheerleader" by Pom Pom Squad.
Mine was "How not to drown" by Chvrches feat Robert Smith (not even in your list). Also "Chasing after midnight" by Kylie Minogue and Years & Years, and finally "Dont shut me down" by ABBA. Love your beard. Marry me. =D
I admittedly don't listen to enough music in any given year to ever make lists 💃 I take my time with discovering music and I take a week or so to absorb an album before moving forward. I like making lists but not ranking things! I'm the worst to ask about favorites when it comes to music. I just go with what I'm feeling at that moment.
Parade by Lydia Ainsworth gives me Kate Bush vibes; it could easily sit on The Red Shoes album. Speaking of which, I’d love a reaction to The Red Shoes!
