This is interesting. Didn't know this site until now. Also not sure about it's eligibility. Can someone look for alexa stats, cause I don't know how it goes? I couldn't find any reviews on the site, but wikipedia says, they do some. I hope this site eligible. Why ? Look on the list. No Despacito, no Selena Gomez, Charli XCX, Cardi B.

The Alexa rank is 695,898.

They do do reviews: if you look at the "Sounds" section on their website, they make a post for multiple albums each week, with 2-paragraph long reviews. That seems like it should be enough for eligibility.

There's a Spotify playlist that brings the song total up to 75. I suppose those should be added as well.

Will we treat it as a ranked list or should we Number 41-75 as an unranked list. Something like honorable mentions?

I actually sent an email about the situation, and got this response:
actually only the first 50 ones are correctly listed, so the 40 ones from the article as well as the first ten from the places below (Feist to Depeche Mode). the other 25 are more or less honorable mentions by our writers which didn't made the official cut. Hope that helps.
So that clears up some confusion. But I still wan't confirmation on how I should enter the 51-75 honorable mentions.

Should I put them at 51 (one below) or at 63 (the "average" position).

What number should I put at the top of the column for how many songs are on the list?

Or should I just ignore the honorable mentions and only enter the top 50?
