Eeveelution Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 cheap queen song beautiful shame about the album... some great choices so far but nothing that needs to be any higher tbh!
BlackoutZone Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Oh wow surprised to see Walk With Me here I considered it for my list too, but I will just patiently wait for her proper comeback! Adore You is a ****ing masterpiece, so underrated here and overall, literally her best song since Imagine It Was Us, can't get enough of it, 2020 will be Jessie's year for me All Mirrors
potent Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Let me check those songs by Bat for Lashes and Jessie Ware, I loved some of their previous stuff but I kinda forgot about them this year.
smholiv Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 Clairo's album was amazing I liked the CHAI album too, so much fun. Songs wise Maybe was pretty great as well and Tia Tamera hihi. Also not Roses Gabor, that name sounds so familiar but I can't figure out why.
ATRL Moderator Tsareena Posted December 12, 2019 Author ATRL Moderator Posted December 12, 2019 80 - 71 80. Orville Peck - Pony I was really excited about this debut mostly because of the mystery behind daddy Peck but the actual music was pretty interesting. A consistent debut with gorgeous vocals and dramatic corny cowboy vibes. Faves: Dead of Night, Turn to Hate, Hope to Die 79. Connie Constance - English Rose Pitchfork compared this to Nilufer Yanya and I just had to listen to find out if it was a reach and it wasn't. Connie has a gorgeous deep voice and her debut is personal, distinct and really lovely. Faves: Fast Cars, Give & Take, Sober 78. Hannah Cohen - Welcome Home Shura hyped this record and I wasn't disappointed. Really sweet pop music with a nostalgic haze over it all. Gorgeous vocals and melodies as well Faves: Dissolving, All I Wanted, This is Your Life 77. Baby Rose - To Myself Baby Rose has a gorgeous and distinct voice that reminds me of Nina Simone. The maturity in her voice makes surprised this is just her debut. Faves: Artifacts, All To Myself, Show You 76. Jenny Hval - The Practice of Love Catch me talking to myself everything I listen to this. Really interesting lyrics and thoughts on the topic on Fertility. Faves: Accident, High Alice, Six Red Cannas 75. Spellling - Mazy Fly Spellling creates a witchy atmosphere with synths and her vocals. The album left a lasting impression on me just for how weird it is and the mixed influences. Faves: Hard to Please (Reprise), Golden Numbers, Haunted Water 74. Dido - Still on My Mind Dido's most consistent album for me. Lovely production and vocals as expected with songs that are a lot lighter than her previous work. Faves: Hurricanes, Hell After This, Friends 73. Claude Fontaine - Claude Fontaine Love the mix of genres of this especially the reggae vibes. A dreamy collection of songs that you can imagine hearing in random coffee shop Faves: Hot Tears, Little Sister, Cry for Another 72. Oh Land - Family Tree Haven't checked on Oh Land in a while and I really enjoyed this. The second half of the album is especially good. Really lovely writing and simple but enjoyable production. Faves: Someone I Can Be Alone With, Brief Moment, Sunlight 71. Big Thief - Two Hands Took a few listens to really click for me but this is such a great follow up to UFOF. Raw emotional vocals, great production and some of their best writing for me. Faves: Forgotten Eyes, Two Hands, Not
ATRL Moderator Tsareena Posted December 12, 2019 Author ATRL Moderator Posted December 12, 2019 70 -61 70. HANA - Cowgirl Bebop makes the twitch album worth it after all 69. Kim Petras - Sweet Spot Hearing this live was such an experience. Kim is hear to stay 68. Georgia - About Work The Dancefloor I'm so hyped for Georgia's album next year and this started it 67. Banoffee ft. Empress Of - Tennis Fan Such a bop and another 2020 album I'm geeked for. 66. Sasami - Take Care Sasami really dropped a single that outsold her entire debut 65. Hatchie - Stay With Me Adds to my sad girl in the club banger playlist 64. Erika De Casier - Good Time such a sexy track. Love the Janet vibes 63. Aldous Harding - The Barrel Addicting melody on this (also one of my fave videos this year) 62. Shygirl - Uckers The scream sample is such a ki and so effectively used 61. Popsmoke ft. Nicki Minaj - Welcome to the Party (Remix) Had to include Nicki's best feature this year

ATRL Moderator Legend E Posted December 12, 2019 ATRL Moderator Posted December 12, 2019 Stan Still On My Mind
TheWayWeWere Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 Still on My Mind such a flawless work from Dido Stay With Me slays Dancing on My Own of indie pop
K$Ellie Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 Stay With Me is a cute song, I only discovered it bc of ATRL's Song Contest nnn About Work the Dancefloor is a bop Sweet Spot is one of Kim's best
Eeveelution Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 So many serves in the song update, Sweet Spot, AWTD, 66-62... the flavour.
Ewan Chaos Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 Orville Peck talent, yup yup yup! Ooh that Connie girl, I meant to listen to her album... but forgot. Jenny's album was cute! And Big Thief, obviously legends. Okay the singles are a SLAY too. Sweet Spot, probably my favorite Kim track because I'm obsessed with that disco/house influence. About Work the Dance Floor is just an awesome bop. Stay With Me cute! Do My Thing is awesome, but interestingly enough I find it less on the sexy side compared to the rest of the album and more on the carefree, fun side (probs the lyrics). And The Barrel, YES! That melody is easily what drew me in, especially the added backing vocals in the second chorus.
theblackestday Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 missed a lot My Akua payola worked Cha Ching, Parachute abmient pop classics Sasami winning (barely) Mazy Fly The Practiceo f Love Two Hands Good Time Uckers SWM Take Care love!
Body Electrician Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 the Sasami gif ddskfhfds Pony was kind of a fad but had some cute tracks TPOL way too low Jenny and those random women served Two Hands indie-folk CLASSIQUE
Remmy Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Stay with Me Sweet Spot is my favorite from Clarity Hatchie & Kimmie did that for sure
BlackoutZone Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Still on My Mind was great, I just wish the production was better at parts. HANA being there is such a surprise to me, but her album knocks and I'm impressed how she made it all by herself in a month
ATRL Moderator Tsareena Posted December 13, 2019 Author ATRL Moderator Posted December 13, 2019 70 - 61 70. King Princess - Cheap Queen King Princess goes for a laid back debut with retro influences that work pretty well for her. Lovely writing and production especially in the 2nd half Faves: Cheap Queen, Watching My Phone, You Destroyed My Heart 69. Emilie Kahn - Outro Checked this out cuz of the album cover tbh but I was pleasantly surprised at this. Gorgeous melodies and I love the use of the harp on this. Faves: Island, Will You?, Swimmer 68. Banks - III Definitely Banks' weakest album but there's growth in her writing and her production on this is some of her best. Faves: Till Now, Sawzall, Alaska 67. Barrie - Happy To Be Here Nice dream pop debut with gorgeous melodies and simple lyrics that really get stuck in your head Faves: Habits, Geology, Chinatown 66. Holychild - The Theatrical Death of Julie Delicious Really underrated album from Holychild. Fun and explosive in general. Their writing and production has improved a lot. Faves: Over You, Patron Saint, Wishing You Away 65. Geowulf - My Resignation Lovely vocals, catchy melodies and great dreamy production on this. Kept growing on me with every listen Faves: Evolution, Falling, I Want You Tonight 64. The Day - Midnight Parade Initially thought this was just okay but returning to it in the summer made me switch so hard. gorgeous dream pop debut Faves: Where The Wild Things Are, We Killed Our Hearts, Island 63. Sigrid - Sucker Punch Great production and vocals with her signature explosive sound and some really unexpected tracks. I still wish 'High Five' made it on her album Faves: Strangers, In Vain, Business Dinners 62. Billie Marten - Feeding Seahorses By Hand Really gorgeous introspective writing on this. The production and her voice add enough to make me want to just keep on listening. Faves: Mice, Blue Sea, Red Sea, She Dances 61. Julia Jacklin - Crushing The writing on this elevates it from being your typical breakup album. Gorgeous melodies and vocals as well Faves: Head Alone, Good Guy, Turn Me Down
ATRL Moderator Tsareena Posted December 13, 2019 Author ATRL Moderator Posted December 13, 2019 60 - 51 60. Vagabon - Water Me Down Honestly, this slaps and will always slap. 59. chloe mk - David Bowie A love song that starts with "I miss David Bowie I miss Prince" 58. Faye Webster ft. Father - Flowers Love everything about this especially how it doesn't fit the album 57. Hannah Diamond - Shy But I'm still shy, I-I-I'm so-so Shy, I-I-I'm so-so Shy 56. Ellie Goulding - Sixteen This is such a bop sorry 55. Kesha ft. Big Freedia - Raising Hell This is such a bop sorry [2] 54. Maxo Kream ft. Megan Thee Stallion - She Live Megan really snapped and this. Maxo Kream tried his best 53. Kash Doll - Doin Too Much Watch this video and switch instantly on this bop 52. Caroline Polachek - Door This took some time to grow on me and I'm glad I switched 51. Big Thief - UFOF Really the first track from Big Thief I stanned. Worth it

potent Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Sucker Punch has some great bops in it Like I said in some other threads I should listen to BANKS album, I'm not a huge fan of hers but she has some great singles here and there. Sixteen and Raising Hell are cute
K$Ellie Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 I never got around to listening to Cheap Queen cause I'm still mad that Useless Phrases wasn't a full song III was decent but very underwhelming Alaska being one of your faves Sucker Punch was kinda meh imo x Sixteen and Raising Hell are awful but I can enjoy Raising Hell for how bad it is Door is excellence
Pink Matter Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Such an extensive set of lists So much good stuff to see. Love the Orville Peck nod. I quite enjoyed his debut (though I only listened to it once like yesterday dd).
