best of Legend E's Best of 2023 | RECAP + WORST ALBUMS LIST

Finally Hold On To Now on someones list and so high too  

 

I got tired of Kill Bill very fast because of how popular this song got, I felt like it was everywhere!

 

And I think we haven't seen all of Sophie on this list, maybe there's still a place for one more song there 

[Renzo_]

What Was I Made For?   I'm pretty sure Billie will win another Oscar eventually.

[Legend E]

 

The latin flavour she brought to a disco track oh she's mother for that!

 

The Daft Punk flavour she brought to a disco track oh she's mother for that!

 

The Italian queen did that. What an emotional masterpiece, the final Sanremo performance >

 

I hate how underrated this was. Kelly came back after her 2078 years break with a very strong ballad about her failed relationship. To me, her songwriting is top notch on this track. Love the bridge part as well.

 

When I checked on Wikipedia before making the lists, this was listed as a single, but now it is not anymore  This era is such a disaster  I think it's a radio single anyway. Lighthouse is one of Kelly's finest ballads, an absolutely gorgeous track about feeling nothing can be done anymore to rekindle the relationship.

I also haven't seen HOTN too much on the lists, maybe it will be high on all of them

Oh I can understand that. I don't listen to radio that much and I actually have not heard it a lot. But an overplayed song can be annoying.

 

No spot for Sophie in this list unfortunately, but maybe in others?

I hope so too, she killed it on this track

lighthouse at #1 

[JGibson]

Kelly Clarkson in top 2 (lighthouse and mine) 

[Kern]

Two Jessie songs in top 5  But both are great so they deserve. If I were to rank the album now I'd say: 1. title track 2. freak me now 3. shake the bottle 4. free yourself 5. beautiful people

[GreatestLoveofAll]

i wont lie Kelly snatching the top 2 was not on my radar but TASTE 

[Renzo_]

I didn't know Kelly Clarkson was back. I used to like her old stuff (Breakaway era).

[Legend E]

 

A very soft and cute little EP. Also look how pretty she is wtf.

 

Elodie giving us the cuntiest club bops  

 

 

Probably the project where Kelsea really lets herself be a proper artist. Very good!

[Legend E]

I forgot I still need to do the EPs, so enjoy this cute little update. The first album update will be tomorrow!

Definitely two of the better songs on the album  i have no clue what shake the bottle and beautiful people are doing in your top 5 x Hello Love? Lightning? These Lips?

You should check it out! It's a great pop record about her failed relationship with her ex-husband.

These bunch of fillers?  Lightning was cute but I stopped using it shortly after it came out x

[Album Leak]

Gotta put a bookmark on Elodie, just quickly previewed RED LIGHT and it sounds really promising 

[Tsareena]

Amaria looks familiar. have to check her out

[Legend E]

 

A good album, but a tad overrated. People praising the songwriting to high heavens, please do yourself a favour and listen to Pressure Machine by The Killers instead x

 

Kind of in the same realm as Zach's record, good, but not a masterpiece. Still one of the better country releases of the year.

 

Love that they're bringing back some shoegaze music. A lot of this album is good, but about half of it is filler-ish for me.

 

Not as trash as everyone makes it to be. Sure, it's not Vows, but it has some cute songs.

 

(background remover slayed this one)

Anyway, it took me a minute to get into Arlo and this is some of her best work. It's a nice listen.

 

Better than Sin Miedo, but I am waiting for Kali to give me another Isolation. Very much looking forward to her new record.

[Legend E]

Yes, I decided to add 4 albums last minute (well one of them is actually a remix album but whatever)

girl be fr, she hasn't served anything like Lightning since Devotion or Tough Love

Definitely check Elodie out. Spoiler alert, but I'd go for the album she released this year first (Ok. Respira) since I think it's better than the EP. Her music before that is not really stunning, but some of the singles are worth checking out.

Definitely do, it's such a relaxing EP!

[Renzo_]

I need to check that Arlo Parks album. I kinda like Weightless.

[Alldeezy]

kimbra

[TRF.]

Softscars and the Kali album  kind of on the fence about the Kimbra album but do agree it has some nice songs

[Kern]

I forgot to add that Kimbra album to my dissapointments But I still use Replay tho. I don't know what happened to her music - Primal Heart was also bad and I feel like her label was to blame. Because these songs live were SO much better before the album dropped. Much more interesting production

[GreatestLoveofAll]

Glad Zach is here at least!

[Legend E]

 

So I made a mistake last night when counting the albums and I wanted to sneak two more in. I will write the current placements of the albums revealed thus far at the end of this post.

 

I actually just listened to this album today and god the songwriting is top notch. Definitely give this a listen!

 

---

 

Greek Eurovision queen participating for Cyprus did that. It's a cute inoffensive dance pop record.

 

A bit of an overrated record for me. Rainbow does everything this album wants to do much better. But it's still a good album and I am happy she is finally free from the contract with Dr. Luke.

 

Surprisingly decent record from Ed, some of his more personal songs are here. Far from his being his folklore or whatever, but it's a nice album.

 

 

An experimental record, but in the most accessible way possible. A great record! Check out I Got It and What a Man.

 

I am sorry to have this this low as it was quite a comfort album for me. It is a bit bloated for me though, but she snapped.

 

If you don't hate fun, check this out x

 

The correct chart as of now:

 

53. Helena Deland - Goodnight Summerland

52. Zach Bryan - Zach Bryan

51. Tyler Childers - Rustin' In The Rain

50. Yeule - Softscars

49. Kimbra - A Reckoning

48. Arlo Parks - My Soft Machine

47. Kali Uchis - Red Moon in Venus

46. Tamta - Identity Crisis

45. Kesha - Gag Order

44. Ed Sheeran - Subtract

43. Debby Friday - Good Luck

42. SZA - SOS

41. Cher- Christmas

Replay is nice! Yeah, I wasn't into Primal Heart either. I never checked them out live, maybe I should.
