luckystrike Posted December 12, 2021 Author Share Posted December 12, 2021 Welcome to the first update of my Best Of to kick things off, I'm going to get the honorable mentions out of the way, some of these are either albums that I liked but I just didn't listen to enough for them to make it onto my list, OR albums that completely did not meet my expectations and were a let down For the albums, I originally chose 5 honorable mentions, but then I decided to cut my main favorite albums list from 20 to 15 since the bottom 5 didn't feel worthy of a main top 20 placement so those 5 I cut are now in the honorable mentions list. For the EPs, I chose 4 EPs that I enjoyed but didn't listen to a lot, and for the songs I chose 10 songs that almost made the cut into the final Top 50. 10 HONORABLE ALBUMS (in no particular order) Spoiler St. Vincent - Daddy's Home Trinity: Pay Your Way In Pain, Live In the Dream, The Melting of the Sun Least favorite: Daddy's Home Alessia Cara - In the Meantime Trinity: Lie to Me, Shapeshifter, You Let Me Down Least favorite: Sweet Dream Lil Nas X - MONTERO Trinity: MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name), SCOOP (feat. Doja Cat), LOST IN THE CITADEL Least favorite: LIFE AFTER SALEM Julia Michaels - Not In Chronological Order Trinity: Lie Like This, Wrapped Around, All Your Exes Least favorite: That's the Kind of Woman Luke Hemmings - When Facing the Things We Turn Away From Trinity: Saigon, Starting Line, Motion Least favorite: Comedown Agnes - Magic Still Exists Trinity: Here Comes the Night, 24 Hours, Love and Appreciation Least favorite: Magic Still Exists (not counting interludes) Adele - 30 Trinity: Oh My God, To Be Loved, Can I Get It Least favorite: Woman Like Me Clairo - Sling Trinity: Amoeba, Blouse, Harbor Least favorite: Little Changes Lorde - Solar Power Trinity: Mood Ring, Solar Power, California Least favorite: Dominoes MARINA - Ancient Dreams In a Modern Land Trinity: Venus Fly Trap, Purge the Poison, Ancient Dreams In a Modern Land Least favorite: Goodbye 4 HONORABLE EPs (in no particular order) Spoiler Charlotte Lawrence - Charlotte Favorites: Slow Motion, Why Do You Love Me Least favorite: You Joshua Bassett - Joshua Bassett Favorites: Telling Myself, Lie Lie Lie Least favorite: Only a Matter of Time aespa - Savage Favorites: aenergy, YEPPI YEPPI Least favorite: Lucid Dream ELIO - Can You Hear Me Now?

TheWayWeWere Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 beautiful layout sis In the Meantime is the most complex and cohesive work from Alessia NICO should've been better, but at least it gave us All Your Exes Magic Still Exists 30, Solar Power, Ancient Dreams deserved to be on the main list tho Let Them Know the best song from her this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
