Is Fiona Apple winning really a done deal? Maybe I'm overreacting to the song results, but I wouldn't be shocked to see Punisher win. As someone who ranked "I Know the End" and "Kyoto" as #1 and 2, Punisher is still only my #3 album for the year. This could easily be a case where the big hits outsh...

Haha, I voted for Aries, Ode to the Mets, Anything, Describe, Heavy Balloon, and had Kerosene! at 6 and Levitating at 4, so you're welcome for all the surprises! Also didn't vote for Murder Most Foul, so I contributed to almost every surprise that's been voiced on this thread. Bad Decisions somehow ...

My policy re: Don't Start Now and other songs that placed in the 2019 poll is that I'll still tally the results as if they were eligible for the spreadsheet, but I won't include them in the final rollout. Substantially easier on my end to do it that way than the ask everyone to edit their lists. I ...

What don't people like about the Jessie Ware album? Even if you disagree that it's one of the best albums of the year, it's hard for me to picture anyone outright hating it. I found it really uneven. Spotlight is arguably the song of the year, Remember Where You Are is fantastic, there are a couple...

Thanks for running this, Holden!

What's so polarizing about Thunder Road??

Funny that I come across as a Dylan hater here. He's my No. 7 artist of all time! It's just that 5 of the 6 I like more are also here.

Do you guys not at least enjoy the guitar solo? I love that song. I understand the hate for Imagine's lyrics, but the hate for Hotel California is a mystery to me. The only sense I can make of it is that it was incredibly popular and overplayed, and people resent it for that... And also that the res...

I'm thankful for the Get Low error, because it allowed Come Dancing by The Kinks to slip into the top 10,000. Not sure if I would have discovered it otherwise. Great tune, and this line is pretty funny. In the hallway, in anticipation He didn't know the night would end up in frustration He'd end up ...

Since I listened to the full top 10,000 from the previous update, doubtful I have a streak unless ten new songs somehow entered all in a row.

FYI I updated my post from December 7 several times as I was going through, as I found missing songs in the history section. I finished now. There are likely more year discrepancies too, but I probably won't revisit those for awhile.

Solid list! Curious how you factor in lists that come out while players are still active. For instance, many of these came out before LeBron added another title this year, which would cause some to rank him higher now.

”Little Lion Man” is on the ”Love Your Ground” EP from 2008, but maybe that’s a different version? Ah. I see RYM lists it being a little longer, but I can't find a different version, so 2008 seems right. What about How I Got Over? Also, I just noticed in the history section that there is no #7220. ...

Well one other definite theme is the critics sleeping on Pink Floyd, which has always seemed odd to me given how revered they are on all other corners of the musical internet.

I'd like to vote but I don't have excel and don't know how to use it anyway. Wait a minute. You want us to rank every song that was nominated? That's too much for me with these songs.
