Re: 2021 EOY Song List Updates

Post by Future Critic »

I really appreciate everything that Ron and Holden do for us. Combining a ton of lists that typically have 50+ albums/songs listed is an enormous amount of work that I don’t envy.

I am curious though - doesn’t Excel allow shared workbooks? It seems like we could have a shared document and share the burden on some of this work. Everyone is willing to post the transcripts here, so I’m sure they’d also be willing to post the lists to the spreadsheet. Or it could just be shared by 5 people or so willing to help out. Just a thought!

Thank you again to Holden and Ron for all the great work again this year! It is appreciated!

32 (37) Danger Dan - Das ist alles von der Kunstfreiheit gedeckt

Kind of interesting that a German language song whose main appeal is also in it's lyrics is doing so well. I guess it is German sources that make it so. Good song, by the way.

Edit: Checking the longlist. All votes come indeed from Germany and most of the sources there put it at #1. It even makes it #5 in "The Rest of the World", which mostly proves how hilarious that category is.

""Sharon Van Etten and Angel Olsen - Like I Used To"" doesn't deserve to be no. 1 song of the year. I mean it's not bad but it's just very simple and bland
I wouldn't be that mad though. The world of music/cinema has been trash in recent years. I prefer listening to old 60s/80s music rather than today music.

Hello! I still can't promise anything, but I can confirm that the next update will be my last one (until next year's list, of course). Truthfully, the fact that the site itself isn't set to update for another couple years really lowered the sense of urgency I've felt regarding this sheet.

At last, the final update has arrived! Thank you all for your patience. For next year, I really do think we should have a serious discussion about how I can get this done sooner, or if someone else should take over.
