best of AlexisNeiers' Best of 2017

[K$Ellie]

Boys in the top 20  Melodrama is a cute girl but Utopia should be higher

[Unoriginal]

Boys did that huh

Thinking of a Place missing the top ten

Melodrama  but  @ it barely missing the top ten

[Vxspertine]

She truly lost

 

 

Melodrama didn't deserve to be higher than Floptopia 

[Bubble Tea]

STAN for "Boys" and AOTY Melodrama. Charli snapped on that single and Lorde delivered the best album of the year. Not a bad feat.

 

[JEWRJEWR]

Wondering is one of my favourite singles of 2016 

[Ewan Chaos]

Boys >>>> obvi. Thinking of a Place is a long one and a great pick from that record! I liked Sleep Well Beast BUUUUT didn't love it.

 

ncihio at the spamming making utopia have so many replies. The mess of the Masseduction thread imo >>>

 

 

And Melodrama, come on, how can you not include it in a Best Of? 

[Lazuli]

Boys  

Thinking of a Place is a TRIP 

Sugar For the Pill  

 

Omg SAME for Sleep Well Beast, this album just somehow clicked sooo easily for me

WAIT @ the Utopia thread having 17k replies  Y'all are nuts

Melodrama deserves to be top 10  

[Playa Playa]

EOY lists made me get into Thinking Of a Place and it's amazing!

 

Album ranking for this batch is pretty on point. Perched for the Top 10 

[Staryu]

Melodrama and Boys

 

 

[Navyofbadgals]

Boys

is 

too

high

 

[theblackestday]

Wondering, Nothing Feels Natural, Sugar for the Pill
Sleep Well Beast

 

Not you snubbing Utopia like this after it got you your most iconic thread

 

 

[Samson]

melodrama missing the t10

 

[Wicked]

Utopia was... Cute but Björk is getting to be too much (somehow) it's just a little extra and doesn't feel natural (how would I know right but idk) 

 

The National did that, tbh. But I like dad rock so TWOD

If you had told me six months ago that I would put The National's album on my year-end list, yet alone THIS high, I would have laughed in your face. As, I don't wanna say a hater, someone who tried to get into The National so many times - because of the critics, because of my friends who like them,

this is meeee. They seem like such a 'you HAVE to like them' group despite never really being my cup of tea, but the cuts ive heard from this album have been right.

 

omg the song set is perfect

Melodrama  

[Pink Matter]

Songs: Thinking of a Place, Nothing Feels Natural, and Sugar for the Pill Boys is a cute girl but I feel she released much better material overall this year.

Albums: Melodrama is my favorite here  Didn't care too much about The National and Utopia was nice for one listen

"Dream Daddy: A Dad Dating Simulator"

Mess.

 

Anyway, The National

For a while I was really sure that Bjork would snatch that top 10 spot in your rate. Poor iT.

More replies on an ATRL thread than album sales, when will your fave?

 

Good position for Melodrama. Antonoff really was overly used in 2017. A Ryan Tedder tea

Btw. can't wait for the Flop to be a dark horse of this rate

[Dom]

I loveee Boys, cause u Know I'm basic like dat.

Melodrama whew, also adore it, another example of me being basic.

 

whewww.

[Same Ol' Mistakes]

Melodrama is definitely better than Utopia so I get the position  

[World Eater]

so many rihplies I'll have to put it in a spoiler tag

 

Spoiler

Boys It's so addictive, it honestly shat on N1A and VV

 

Wondering is one of my faves on Forget too, its so fun. Agreed with SFTP,  its mesmerizing and beautiful.

 

Utopia, Sleep Well Beast

 

STAN for Melodrama, it literally perfectly captures what good pop music is about, she and Jack did that and they did it well.

Loved VV and N1A but yes, Boys is her best song since Need Ur Luv

wondering, thinking of a place, sugar  

glad u came around with the national. they're one of the better "middle aged white male indie rock" groups. 

flutopia being a smash hit on atrl  

I need to relisten to their other albums cause I haven't really gotten around to do after SLB clicked with me

Good songs, some even top 10 worhy, u could say.

 

I think Sugar for the Pill, Thinking of a Place and Skyline were in the top 10 at some point when I was still creating the list. Wish they could be there but guess there were better songs released this year

Sugar for the Pill, Boys, TWOD

 

Próbowałeś słuchać wcześniejszego National po SWB? Może teraz bardziej Ci się spodobają, imo naprawdę świetna dyskografia. 

No właśnie nie  Słuchałem Boxer dzień przed pierwszym odsłuchem SWB, ale to tyle. Na pewno do wszystkiego jeszcze wrócę, może faktycznie mi się coś spodoba

Wondering was my fave song from last year so yas I approve I'm also surprised at how high you ranked Mono No Aware, def a super b compilation.

Utopia not being in the top 10 doe, Björk lost.

 

Whew, Xiu² did that

Mono No Aware's first 3 tracks alone made me put it on the list

Lbr, the meltdown in the Masseduction thread is more iconic than the whole Utopia thread

Even SWB's singles clicked for me immediately

The fact that 4 people have +1k posts in the Utopia thread

I'll consider redoing the list and moving it up a few spots if we surpass the LFL thread

She should have either go even further with it or gotten rid of a few songs but I'm satisfied with the album nonetheless

Omg right?  I used to call them the most boring band to exist but they really did THAT with SWB

I hope High Violet (my #1 favorite) and Boxer does the trick. Though, SWB had more going on electronically than those, so maybe that aspect was what helped appealed to you more. 

[Dilettante]

Yes to Pleasure and Melodrama
