Here's the first draft of my list, in roughly alphabetical artist order:
Song for Obol (Arborea) Rolling In The Deep (Adele) Every Night My Teeth Are Falling Out (The Antlers) - "Try, try, try, try, try, try, try" really ought to become the indie kid's answer to "Bounce Bonce Bounce Bounce Bounce." Spellwork (Austra) Sleeping Children are Flying (Blue Sky Black Death) Something by BtMI! (BtMI!) Perth (Bon Iver) Representing Memphis (Booker T. Jones) Nothing by Bright Eyes Freaks and Geeks (Childish Gambino) Go Outside (Cults) Decemberists song Kaputt (Destroyer) That One Song by The Drums There Is A Light That Never Goes Out (Dum Dum Girls) Shaker Star (Eef Barzelay) Blue Spotted Tail (Fleet Foxes) - Proof of my theory that the only Fleet Foxes songs worth listening to all the way through are the ones with the word "blue" in the title. Strawberry Swing (Frank Ocean) Pumped Up Kicks (Foster the People) Girls song? Something by For A Minor Reflection Something by Grouplove - "sub-Kreayshawn rapping" Howth? Tree By The River (Iron & Wine) [NPR Tiny Desk version ONLY] The Wilhelm Scream (James Blake) - idawabbawah my DREE! Kanye/Jay-Z: Otis, Niggas, Church, Murder, Gotta Have It? Shit Cradle or Whirring (Joy Formidable) Yoό And I (Lady Gaga) Lil B - rapping over Dexter? Lonely Forest: Turn Off or We Sing In Time Japan (The Lonely Island) By Your Hand (Los Campesinos!) Try to Sleep (Low) All The Places (Made In Heights) High Hawk Season (The Mountain Goats) Holdin' On To Black Metal (My Morning Jacket) Exile Vilify (The National) Polish Girl (Neon Indian) Panda Bear song? Supercollider? Radiohead It's Real (Real Estate) Cruel (St. Vincent) Frank Ocean's bits from She/The rest of She (Tyler, The Creator) Ffunny Ffrends (Unknown Mortal Orchestra) I Wanna Meet Dave Grohl (Wavves) House of Balloons BUT NOT GLASS TABLE GIRLS (The Weeknd) We Bros (WU LYF) Whale [maybe Mary] (Yellow Ostrich) Montana (Young Lagoon)
Gonna hopefully eventually turn this into a top-50 or top-25 sort of review-piece, long-form and everything and all that.

The thing about Pickfork's list is that they always try to be representative with the top tracks. Like, did you really think the Fever Ray song from the Little Red Riding Hood soundtrack was that good?

Yes! M83's "Midnight City" named track of the year by Poochfuck. Finally something I agree with 100%. That damn song will go down as one of my top 5 favorite songs of all time.

They also named this as number 25 and I don't know what to think. On one hand, I'm happy to have this in my life because it's ridiculous. I don't think I mean that in a good way though...
