AMF Favorite Albums/Songs of 2020 - LIST THREAD

Post by acroamor »

Hey everyone,

After I saw the Grammy nominations, I thought it would be worthwhile to start this thread for the 2020 EOY polls, even though it's fairly early. I ran the songs poll last year and would like to do it again, unless anyone has any objections?

Holden ran the albums poll last time around, and the position seems to be open for him as well.

Album Eligibility:

-Albums released within the 2020 calendar year.

-Any major re-release of a previously unacclaimed album

-Burial Clause: EPs count as albums.

Song Eligibility:

-Any song released within the calendar year either as a single or a track from an album.

-High-profile re-releases, provided the song did not make a previous countdown (e.g., "Blackstar", despite being on an album in 2016, made 2015's EOY and was ineligible during the 2016 poll)

-2019 singles from 2020 albums are fair game, provided they follow the above rule.

Deadline will be February 15th, but if you would like an extension just let me know, and I'll be as accommodating as possible!

For albums and songs, there will be a 10 album minimum and a 100 album maximum - you can post longer lists, but only the top 100 will be counted.

I’d love to run the albums poll again! If anyone has a strong desire in their heart to do it let me know but I’d absolutely love to run it again.

I will personally be waiting until the absolute end of the year but I must say I am very excited to be participating this way. Even though I have always listened to tons of albums, 2020 has been the first year where I have been paying attention and listening to new albums coming out each week. I have listed to a little over 100 new albums this year so far and I have been posting reviews pretty consistently on my YouTube channel, Edre Reviews. I thank this forum for inspiring me to dive even deeper into the music world and it is great to have an excellent community to talk music about!!!

Thanks acroamor and Holden! These are one of the yearly forum highlights.
My lists will probably be a bit shorter than usual, but I will definitely participate once the year is over.

Me too, I always wait until January.

On a side not, I hope it is alright if I format my list my own way. Their will likely be around 40 albums I think are worthy of the list (I rank things out of 10 so only the best of the 7/10s and everything up will be on my list) and I will make the top 20 bold and a larger font size, the remaining 8/10s will be bold, and the remaining 7/10s that made the cut will not be bold or large. I also plan on putting together an unranked list of the remaining 7/10s that didn't make the cut (sort of like a "bubbling under" feature) that shouldn't not be counted at all.

How long are the lists supposed to be?
I'll manage a Top 500 songs and probably a Top 150 albums.

I also plan on doing an Album Cover list, a Best Debut Album list and a Most Prolific Artist list.

I’d say 100 for albums is what I’m gonna put the limit at!

Considering I have listened to a little over a hundred albums this year I am not ranking all of them because many dont deserve a ranking at all lol

I've got a strictly preliminary, strictly personal list of 2020 song favorites. Based on previous experience, the lists I compile before December undergo a lot of changes, because in December I use other year-end lists (Rolling Stone, Pop Matters, Paste, Entertainment Weekly, American Songwriter, NPR, No Depression, Grammy nominations, Billboard, etc.) to catch up on songs that I had previously missed. In particular, I''m way behind on Billboard pop chart hits, which I generally ignore until year-end. So this is just a snapshot of my personal favorites that I've heard up to now:

First, my top eight faves of the year to date, alphabetical by artist:

Crawl Into the Promised Land (Oct. 20, 2020) - Rosanne Cash w/ John Leventhal
Uncivil War (June 19, 2020) - Shemekia Copeland (blues)
Sinking Ship (Sept. 3, 2020) - David Johansen
No Time to Cry (June 19, 2020) - James Maddock
I Remember Everything (June 12, 2020) – John Prine
Living in a Ghost Town (April 23, 2020) - Rolling Stones
Drive (August 2020) - Patty Smyth
Letter to You (Sept. 10, 2020) - Bruce Springsteen & E Street Band

Then, about 20 other personal favorites, also alphabetical:

Liberia (March 27, 2020) - Lakecia Benjamin (jazz)
I Will Miss You (Sept. 2020) - Chelsea Berry
Gaslighter (Feb. 29, 2020) - The Chicks
I Believe (Everything Gonna Be Alright) (Apr. 2020) – Thornetta Davis (blues)
Hymn to Him (June 2020) - Dion with Patty Scialfa
Murder Most Foul (March 2020) - Bob Dylan
My Future (August 2020) - Billie Eilish
Don’t Worry About It (April 2020) - Joe Ely
From Paris With Love (August 2020) - Melody Gardot
Life in Quarantine (April 2020) - Ben Gibbard
Don’t Misunderstand (July 2020) - Jimmy Heath, vocal by Gregory Porter (jazz)
I Can’t Breathe (June 2020) - H.E.R.
Morning Comes Wearing Diamonds (June 2020) - Ray Lamontagne
I’m Here to Remind You (early 2020) - Jim Lauderdale
A Change is Gonna Come (June 2020) - Lost Coast/Gary Clark, Jr.
America Undefined (July 2020) - Pat Metheny (jazz)
Djoukourou (May 2020) - Omou Sangare (world music)
A World Lost (July 2020) - Maria Schneider Jazz Orchestra
All Out of Tears (July 22, 2020) - Walter Trout (blues)
History of Boogie Woogie (early 2020) - Victor Wainwright (blues/jazz)
Man Without a Soul (Feb. 2020) - Lucinda Williams

I'll post a more final personal list in about a month.

Decided to go through previous top EOY songs, since it seems as though this year's song EOY is going to be WAP, which I would be surprised to see win our list. I wanted to see if it might score the lowest of any winner, but then I saw 2015 and let's say I'd be surprised if it did that poorly.

So here are the previous EOY Critic's #1 Songs and their placement in our polls.
2008 | Hercules and Love Affair - Blind | 8
2009 | Animal Collective - My Girls | 2
2010 | CeeLo Green - Fuck You! | 3
2011 | M83 - Midnight City | 6
2012 | Frank Ocean - Pyramids | 1
2013 | Daft Punk - Get Lucky | 1
2014 | Future Islands - Seasons (Waiting on You) | 1
2015 | Drake - Hotline Bling | 41
2016 | Beyonce - Formation | 10
2017 | Kendrick Lamar - HUMBLE. | 1
2018 | Childish Gambino - This Is America | 2
2019 | Billie Eilish - Bad Guy | 2

I figure it’s obvious what our AOTY is going to be, but I’m pretty stumped when it comes to our SOTY. Maybe “Spotlight” if I had to guess.

It's cool that SOTY is so wide open this year! I'd guess Kyoto, People I've Been Sad, and Spotlight as our top three. I could see Fiona Apple getting 5 or 6 songs in the top 50 but none in the top 10.

And with that, I can finally start the songs spreadsheet. Excited to see what patterns form - I'll admit, I wouldn't be shocked if "Kyoto" retains its #2 spot from now until the rollout.

You can use this basic sample set for the example...

Love to see it! Unfortunate that it probably won't make it as high as it deserves in our list. Hopefully Top 30!

I will be counting Adrianne Lenker's songs and instrumentals as one album (or more considering instrumentals as a companion piece, I suppose, one slot either way), as is being done in the EOY spreadsheet, so don't give them separate slots in your list!

I said that I would wait until January to post my lists. But I'm impatient. If I change anything, I'll let you know.

I have also included "Blinding Lights" by The Weeknd on my songs list. It's getting a lot of attention on the EOY spreadsheet despite being a 2019 song, but it didn't make our 2019 list. So it should be eligible this time around.

Finally, I am copying notbrianeno's list layout style. It's a good style. It deserves copying.

With that being said...

Dua Lipa, my queen of 2020

Albums

I certainly won’t complain that 2020 was a substandard year for music, even though it was such an unprecedented year. There have been other years where it was less easy to come up with a list of 25 albums that I really enjoyed listening to.

Every year, despite my lists being dominated by North American and British music, I also search for music from around the world with traditional flavours that is culturally more exotic. This year my favourites were Sages comme des sauvages’ Luxe misère, a contemporary folk album that intermingles chanson with maloya, Greek folk music, and calypso, to name only a few genres (see the title track Luxe misère); Lina_Raül Refree’s self-titled album, which manages to be a haunting mix of fado and art pop with ominous ambient textures (see Cuidei que tinha morrido); and DakhaBrakha’s Alambari, which blends Ukrainian folk music with cabaret and jazz (see Lado).

Over the past few years, I’ve noticed that albums by singer-songwriters and folk and country artists appear more and more prominently on my lists. I don’t think it’s because I’m getting older – they are more laid-back, rootsy genres of music I’ve always liked, and I guess I appreciate their more uncomplicated sound amid increasingly overproduced music (much of which I like too).

On the country / alt-country side of things, it’s nice to see Waxahatchee, Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit, and Margo Price getting some recognition from the critics. But there are a couple of country albums which stood out to me that received very few mentions on year-end lists: Sturgill Simpson’s Cuttin' Grass Vol. 1: The Butcher Shoppe Sessions, on which he captures the heart and soul of bluegrass and surrounds himself with some of the genre’s best musicians (see All the Pretty Colors), and Honey Harper’s Starmaker, with its melancholic songs that sound like they are floating in space and performed by someone who doesn’t care much about traditional gender roles in country music (see Something Relative).

01 | Dua Lipa | Future Nostalgia
02 | Fiona Apple | Fetch the Bolt Cutters
03 | Sturgill Simpson | Cuttin' Grass Vol. 1: The Butcher Shoppe Sessions
04 | Laura Marling | Song for Our Daughter
05 | Sages comme des sauvages | Luxe misère 
06 | Run the Jewels | RTJ4
07 | Adrianne Lenker | songs
08 | Jessie Ware | What's Your Pleasure?
09 | Rufus Wainwright | Unfollow the Rules
10 | Sault | Untitled (Rise)
11 | Bruce Springsteen | Letter to You
12 | Perfume Genius | Set My Heart on Fire Immediately
13 | Bob Dylan | Rough and Rowdy Ways
14 | Waxahatchee | Saint Cloud
15 | Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit | Reunions
16 | Haim | Women In Music Pt. III
17 | Honey Harper | Starmaker 
18 | Margo Price | That's How Rumors Get Started
19 | The James Hunter Six | Nick of Time
20 | Lina_Raül Refree | Lina_Raül Refree
21 | ДахаБраха [DakhaBrakha] | Alambari
22 | The Avalanches | We Will Always Love You
23 | Laura Veirs | My Echo
24 | Phoebe Bridgers | Punisher 
25 | Róisín Murphy | Róisín Machine 

Songs

Although there’s not a strong correlation between my songs list and the critics’ year-end list, like the critics’ list it has its fair share of poptimism. At the top of my list, there are a few songs that have been favourites for a large part of the year: Dua Lipa’s energetic dance-pop gems “Physical” and “Levitating”; Perfume Genius’s “On the Floor”, with its sunny guitar sound seemingly filtered through steel wool to give it just the right kind of unusual, arty feel; and The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights”, with its rich, 80s synth-pop production.

Róisín Murphy’s “Jealousy” has been around since 2015, but the 2020 album version has recently really connected with me. Its glittering disco groove keeps exciting me more and more, so I’ve added it to my list of 2020 songs.

And “Soul Control” has recently overtaken other songs as my favourite Jessie Ware track of 2020. It took me a little while to appreciate it for the funktronica classic it will become, but I got there in the end.

01 | Dua Lipa | Physical
02 | Róisín Murphy | Jealousy
03 | Perfume Genius | On the Floor
04 | Dua Lipa | Levitating
05 | The Weeknd | Blinding Lights
06 | Jessie Ware | Soul Control
07 | Sault | Wildfires
08 | Raye | Natalie Don't
09 | RMR | Rascal
10 | Sturgill Simpson | All the Pretty Colors
11 | Declan McKenna | The Key to Life on Earth
12 | Fiona Apple | I Want You to Love Me
13 | John Prine | I Remember Everything
14 | Lina_Raül Refree | Cuidei que tinha morrido
15 | Miley Cyrus | Midnight Sky
16 | Romy | Lifetime
17 | Doja Cat | Say So
18 | Blimes and Gab | Shellys (It’s Chill)
19 | Rufus Wainwright | Hatred
20 | Fiona Apple | Cosmonauts
21 | Waxahatchee | Can’t Do Much
22 | Phoebe Bridgers | Garden Song
23 | Adrianne Lenker | Anything
24 | Jessie Ware | Remember Where You Are
25 | Honey Harper | Something Relative

...will keep us together.
