ILM's Top 77 Tracks of 2017

here's hoping for some shockers :)

"akanamali" getting this high is astonishing

it's cool that 'hailing drums' made the ilx top 12

OMGGGGG

Not even top 10?! ILM you make me proud

Can't imagine putting this Kesha anywhere near a top 20, but it is ILM and at least we don't get Arcade Fire.

Oh, this is Black Madonna. This track did jump out for me sometimes from the electronic music playlist. It was more of the type of thing I enjoyed while it was playing without it ever registering really strongly with me.

Underwhelmed with the Slowdive.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

no offense to Cardi fans but I'm just so over this track

i was thinking this would surely have to show up soon enough, kinda surprised it got this high but there's been so little consensus this year

slowdive song is all about the avalon emerson remix. again

Charly Bliss song is fun enough. In the 90s, I would have probably scorned it as too sugary/fluffy but one takes what one can get in this brave new world.

brb gonna page deej

it's still a coldplay song with a nice bass drop :P

lol p much

damn cardi b placed appropriately. wonderful

it was cool that bodak yellow was a #1 hit but it feels so by the numbers it's hard to get too excited about

Bodak Yellow is:

actually, links to appropriate threads for these songs is a good idea. brb.

it was the response to that thread that made me think it could actually win this thing!

there's a Slowdive remix? original is kind of beautiful imo. first place vote = me.

feeling v good about my CRJ #1 prediction tbh

Predicting Charlie XCX as ilm soty now

there's a Slowdive remix? original is kind of beautiful imo. first place vote = me.

here you go geoff (pls don't embed pls don't embed) https://youtu.be/xchUUu6H3nY

xp :)

so T-Shirt is going to beat this huh

I like the original Sugar For The Pill just fine, but the Avalon Emerson treatment is phenomenal and otherworldly. (I voted for neither, but would've voted for 'Gilded Escalation' if I had.)

voted very unstrategically this year and now getting sadly hopeful that Akanamali is going to win

Oh, Charly Bliss's "Percolator" is pretty cool. I could have used a catchy uptempo pop-rock album last year; listening with interest.

"T-Shirt" would be the funniest possible 78 imo

This elicited mirthless laughter from me. Too relatable.

T-SHIRT SONG OF THE YEAR

if my ballot has anything to do with what's no. 1 then it's not crj or charli (but tbh i almost never have anything to do with what's no. 1)

Album is all killer, no filler. You'll be pleased imo.

idk if T-Shirt is even placing at this point, maybe if Humble doesn't? (very possible)

SZA probably got vote split too but I have no idea which of the singles will be the consensus

T-SHIRT SONG OF THE YEAR

Would be quite something for a song that wasn't a hit iirc

Annoyed by how much the "nipples are hard" line in Tove Lo is getting me turned on.

ok lock thread

no way in hell "Love Galore" isn't placing xps

love galore is the one imo

"T-Shirt" would be the funniest possible 78 imo

lol I didn't even consider that

would love to see Love Galore at #1

i voted drew barrymore, guess love galore is more likely though

best song I've heard today for the 1st time is the black madonna one. Still dont care much for the slowdive song or the remix

"mask off" and "t-shirt" placing is gonna be a real dull stretch for me but enjoy yourselves i guess

ooh, the imago household threw quite a few points at Drew Barrymore...

not sure I ever got all the way through "mask off" (I did vote for T-Shirt tho)

I just remembered "Bad and Boujee" only placed around 30 or something? so I'm really doubting "T-Shirt" at this point

B&B was #25.

pffft never underestimate this board's desire to stick it to deej
