bicep another one that's elevated almost incalculably by the video

The Slowdive song was underwhelming for me (imago basically OTM) but the remix is something else. The Alvvays song was better post-shoegaze/dream-pop/w/e imo, though the album made my teeth hurt a little.

OK, I just got weirdly emotional at the rave memories in the Bicep video so I'm obviously just having a very overemotional day. 'Aura' is still better (this is good too).

yeah i prefer "aura" but i'm not mad at "glue" or anything, it does a lot with v little

remix of "sugar for the pill" is so, so, so wonderful upon revisit that now i wish i had voted for it even though it's sufficiently high
― flamenco drop (BradNelson), Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:16 (six years ago) link
the video to this really is a great match to the music

I'm inclined to feel the same way. By some distance, too.

even if the #1 ends up a massive anticlimax (which is more likely than not tbh)
― Simon H., Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:18 (six years ago) link
Yes (and yes)
― ♫ very clever with maracas.jpg ♫ (Le Bateau Ivre), Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:19 (six years ago) link
yeah it's been a really great list, looking forward to the top 10 being entirely kendrick and sza though! (actually not sure multiple tracks from either will place at this point)
hoping for akanamali as #1 though that's unlikely

yeah I'm revising my original guess to only 1 sza track
― Simon H., Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:19 (six years ago) link
eh this song's pretty annoying tbh, if you ask me they should melt bicep down for glue

"akanamali" getting this high is astonishing

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

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.

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
― ufo, Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:24 (six years ago) link
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.

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

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.

so T-Shirt is going to beat this huh
― rob, Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:29 (six years ago) link
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.)
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:29 (six years ago) link
voted very unstrategically this year and now getting sadly hopeful that Akanamali is going to win
― rob, Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:30 (six years ago) link
Oh, Charly Bliss's "Percolator" is pretty cool. I could have used a catchy uptempo pop-rock album last year; listening with interest.
― No purposes. Sounds. (Sund4r), Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:30 (six years ago) link

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)
― flamenco drop (BradNelson), Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:31 (six years ago) link
Album is all killer, no filler. You'll be pleased imo.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 25 January 2018 16:31 (six years ago) link
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
