This is a really good question! I think with so many people at home - working, doing remote school, whatever - that I've listened to *less* music than I usually would, and quieter (I'm not a headphones guy). Meanwhile, the kids have been listening to *more* music than usual and screwing up the household algorithms, so when I try to see what I've listened to the most it's this total jumble. Harry Styles, Taylor Swift, Low, Springsteen, Dua Lipa, Encanto soundtrack, Roxy Music, Olivia Rodrigo, Isaac Hayes ...

I'm totally the opposite. Working from home free of office distractions, especially with wife at work and kid back at school during the day, I listen to way more than I ever did. Tons of old jazz, blues and 70s rock mostly, but there's no one album I listened to most.

Microphones in 2020 and Cassandra Jenkins An Overview on Phenomenal Nature, I'd reckon.
And some (home made) Tindersticks compilations specifically sequenced for drinking.

The Vulgar Boatmen, You and Your Sister
Though in the early days of lockdown, when everything still felt apocalyptic in a meaningful way, it would have been Dylan's Love and Theft, and then Rough and Rowdy Ways once that came out. You and Your Sister was what I listened to most in the middle part of the pandemic, the tedious blurry part where all the days faded into each other.

Singing Saw would be high up on my list too...but someway off The Beths' Future Me Hates Me and Prefab's Jordan/Swoon.

It's probably something from my bedtime headphone rotation, which for most of the pandemic has been either Tetsu Inoue's Inland, Eliane Radigue's Adnos I-III or Roland Kayn's Tektra, depending on which flavor of cosmic vista I'm in the mood for.

i have had the same music on my ipod shuffle since early 2020 and i listen to it while walking, so probably 5+ hours/week. Can, Shirley Collins, Fela Kuti, Felt, Feelies, Horse Lords, a collection of Colombian cumbia, lots of other random things but a very "me" mixture
It really helped me develop some kind of continuity during a time in my life that everything was in upheaval. I have listened to other music but the stuff on my shuffle has been repeated countless times

Going back to adolescence. This was a revelation for me. It still sounds great four decades later.

I don't have an answer to this thread. My listening habits have been affected by covid but if anything I abandon albums faster now rather than dwell on particular ones

Ah, easily Cocteau Twins' Heaven or Las Vegas !I knew about them and had heard some of their 80s stuff as a kid since my sister was into all the new wavy/goth scene then but I never particularly cared.Then last year, during the first lockdown in France (March/May) I really discovered them (thanks to an ILM thread actually !) and have totally fallen in love with the band.I remember my Spotify end of year data showing that I listened to them far more than anything else last year.
pretty much same here, and probably related to the same thread, ha! cocteau fever was in the air in 2020/21. that pair of musicians, that deadly duo, so good!
