i very nearly voted for "Magic," if i thought anyone else was gonna i would've had your back :(

btw everyone should run out and listen to Lamb, Alcest, Gazelle Twin, Kate Boy, Kate Tempest and Basement Jaxx releases from last year immediately

Why is it do hard for people to follow the bolded tracks placed template?

Loving tpp's list. Mine would have been about 80% identical.

Xp, because adding bracket formatting on a tablet is a pain in the neck and everyone knows what placed?

for years, most people here have favored bolding things that didn't place in the poll, i.e. highlighting what was unique or unheralded from their list. doing it the other way around seems like a more recent development and frankly i don't even see the point in bothering in bolding the stuff that placed. and afaict there's no rule that it has to be done that way.

I'm surprised "Latch" has never placed before. 533rd in 2012, apparently.

monotony was my top neighbor, but j0rdan was his. I am no one's. :'(

My top genre is synthpop which is absolutely OTM. My closest neighbour is octobeard but I have no idea who that is.

loads of voters names i dont recognise after not posting for most of last year. Was there a big influx or just gradual?

Late to the party but 'Treasure' by Young Thug is just one of the best tracks ever. Shame it missed the top tracks.

at least it was one of the joke #1s right
