Future Nostalgia, of course that was going to be your #1! it's a great album on the whole though, she definitely proved herself as one of the A-list popstars this time.

another top 300 too, wow! I may have to expand from 250 next year. :P looking forward to it.

Glad that you like my album of the year!

It should've been no surprise, that this would've been my #1 album of the year!

My year-end list of the 300 singles will start soon.

The top 300 countdown this year starts with one of the songs from the sadly cancelled Eurovision Song Contest 2020, the first being from Azerbaijan, "Cleopatra" by Efendi at #300. Fontaines D.C. were one of the many new acts discovered this year with "Liberty Belle" at #299. Liam Payne makes it to the Year-End list with "Stack It Up", which originally charted in November last year, but made the Year-End list at #298 and peaked this year. The Scotts, a collaboration project by Travis Scott & Kid Cudi released a single with the same name at #297. And Usher returns to the year-end lists with his single "Bad Habits" landing at #296.

Excellent to see Dua top the albums, Serge! :cheer:

 

Stack It Up my favourite of those songs too, definitely one of the best Liam's released (although that's not saying much :kink:)!

Glad that you like Dua at the top of my album chart, of course she was going to take it!

Also nice that you like "Stack It Up" as the favourite of the first 5 songs!

Thank you for your comment!

Personal Recommendation

Edited January 2, 20214 yr by Sergej

Hi Sergej :) Good start to the rundown, top album of the year for now and for all eternity, the Sound of Lockdown, is Dua Lipa, no question. Harry Styles and Tame Impala would be my other choices, all 3 are chock a block full of great tracks. The Weeknd I'll prob like if I ever get to hear it :lol:

 

5 in a row good choices of singles there too, George Michael topped my chart, with Jax, Max, Brooce & Puth (what a great band name that would be) all tracks I bought. :lol:

Cleopatra was a decent song from the cancelled Eurovision, I can still remember the chorus/drop but it wasn't one of my standout songs. Good to see i miss u here as well, shame it was slightly drowned out by the early Christmas influx!

The Scotts is my fave of that first section, I do enjoy the bleeps in the production and Travis sounds quite good on it too.

I also enjoyed I Miss U although perhaps not half as much as I wanted to, it was one of the weaker Jax single releases for me so far.

I also think "I Miss U" is the weakest from Jax Jones's singles workm still good though.

Giving Cheyenne a listen now, sounding decent although when looking at the thumbnail I was expecting something a bit more dance-pop-y! Could be a grower anyway.

Personal Recommendation

Hey Sergej! Loving Break Up Song, Wonder, Ain't It Different, Kings & Queens and i miss u from the last few sections :D can't wait to see what else is to come!

Break Up Song was one of my faves of Little Mix in recent years, a great effort from them. Ain't It Different is great too, one of the better British rap hits we've had.

I briefly charted Savage Love but it grew off me fast, Lighter I also didn't like as much as I wanted to.
