Think I had CRJ #1, SS #2 but it could easily have been the other way around. Great top 3

Ten Love Songs was among the 25 best-reviewed albums of the year (according to metacritic)
Well it helps that it only had 7 reviews counting towards its score.

whoa @ top 5 placements - lividity at dawn being so low sort of counterbalanced by susanne being so high (and thank fuck grimes got shut out from the top 3). i know how much ten love songs was loved but it got so little critical traction outside of ilm, and neither song that placed was in the top 10, so i thought it might just be as niche within the board.
ten love songs was also the same trailer different park of 2015 for me in that it was the album i found it easiest to convert others to

Some key people in the hype industry have failed when it comes to not bringing SS at least to a lot of year-end lists from publications, if not global success the likes Tove Lo got. I mean she's doing fine, touring europe and the us, but

I lazily did an unweighted ballot, Ten Love Songs should really have been my number 1. Glad those extra 24 points weren't decisive. Great year for the albums.

Re: Tinashe, I took for granted that it would make the list, but I guess too few actually listened. What a stupendous mixtape. A cornucopia of ideas, every song has something that could serve as a foundation for a full length album. At her most playful, inventive, confident, cocky.
