[Jackson]

Great songs list. Not sure why they cut it off at 20 given the albums list is 50.

[JohnnyBGoode]

They do have a longer playlist

It says "so far" in the description and doesn't match the order of the above list, so I'll only add the top 20.

[JohnnyBGoode]

Yeah I wasn't suggesting it should be included, just if anyone was interested checking it out. Seemed to be a running list i.e. not just half a year & still attached to their home page.

It's a running playlist they keep going throughout the year. They have one each year and it doesn't necessarily match their EOY list, but it is a good source to pick up on songs that slip through the cracks of more traditional critics.

[JohnnyBGoode]

Yeah it's probably my favourite song list along with NPR and Said the Gramophone which is a single contributor.
