ILM’s Top 77 Tracks of 2018

Please report any mistakes or oversights to me, so I can do the whole damn thing over again. Thank U, next!

I voted for Americans, but would definitely had put Screwed on there as well if I'd thought it had traction.

I thought 'Americans' was the best song on the album, and have a strict 1-song-per-artist rule, unless there's a good reason to have two songs on, such as Screwed having a shot at making it.

Ok, I get it, but based on the discussion here it seems the reason "Screwed" didn't have a shot at making it was because people who liked it thought it didn't have a shot at making it. So, a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Since your list seems to be based on country of origin and not residence, according to Resident Advisor Peach is a Canadian who lives in the UK.

i’ve never been in a starbucks and i’m not interested in the sort of music they may or may not play inside

Thanks, Tuomas. Yes, I went with country of origin and/or self-identification, more or less. DJs seem to be more elusive than most in this regard, or require a bit more googling at least. Hope I didn’t make too much of a shambles of it...

and I have to buy an industrial fan instead

walked through a downtown commuter tunnel that's about to be filled with concrete yesterday, with industrial fans thundering breathable air from the streets above, and thought of this

i give "boo'd up" extra points for sounding distinctly like a huge R&B hit circa 2005. i thought it was telling that mariah basically repaid the homage by getting dj mustard to produce the same sort of glassy R&B song for her own album. the emancipation of mimi influence snake eating its own tail.

the starbucks on 43rd and madison by my old office was always playing R&B from like 98-06 and "boo'd up" could definitely have gotten some burn in there

I dipped into this thread briefly a couple of days ago, but just getting around to fully catching up with it now - I can't believe 'Give Yourself a Try' placed and 'It's Not Living (If It's Not With You)' didn't. Can't fault the other 1975 tracks that placed.
