Some swell songs you've got here

Take it there won't be many chart hits in your Top 100 songs then?

 

Sick Boy, when the party's over and TOOTIME are my favourite from your hits list though! There are some truly dreadful songs on there as well but let's ignore those :ph34r:

Hi mdh! Sick Boy, When The Party's Over & Mo Bamba are all great choices :music:

Billie Eilish, Childish Gambino, The 1975, Benny Blanco, George Ezra,

 

Love most of those chart hits :wub: Can live without Sick Boy, Mo Bamba, & 1999 though :P Excited to see what comes in your top 100 :o

Massive no at J. Cole being in your worst albums list. :(

 

Easily one of my favourites of the year, he manages to mix fun and serious songs perfectly.

 

 

I am loving This Is America, Praise The Lord (Da Shine) & Funky Friday especially from your 'Chart Hits Chart' though. :wub:

Not Tom Grennan! He's had so many amazing tunes this era. Agree entirely with your Top 2 though ;)

As usual I'm horrendous at listening to albums but I've heard quite a few from The 1975 purely from them entering the chart! I've liked most of them although It's Not Living (If It's Not With You) is a particular highlight, and I Always Wanna Die (Sometimes) is different in a good way as well!

Joy As An Act Of Resistance is a marvellous punk album.

Did you know that JPEGMAFIA have a song called I Might Vote 4 Donald Trump?
