Final playlist update done. I didn't add anything that didn't have a round number. We finished up with 301 songs. :towelwave:

Trevor Lawrence with 54 pts after we're eliminated :rolleyes:

I'm glad everybody here still makes an effort to discover new music, whatever their process. I've spent most of my life chasing the little buzz that comes with hearing something special for the first time. I still enjoy that when it happens whatever Spotify thinks my listening age is.

I never listen to Release Radar or any of those daily mix things.

The FJM album came out in late 2024. I guess time makes fools of us all :rolleyes:

Some people in the audience acted like they were at a show and applauded at the end of songs (I didn't because the band couldn't hear us). There was one woman(?) behind us with a weird munchkin/troll voice who sang along to "In Between Days". Fortunately she didn't seem to know the words to...

The Cure movie was pretty good. They're not a particularly dynamic live act and their stage show is modest by modern standards but the film was visually interesting without the over-editing which often ruins full length concert movies. They started with their most recent album front to back...

Playlist is updated. I'll do one more sweep over the weekend to add any stragglers. We're currently at 292 songs which is 12 more than last year's year-ender and 89 more than 2023. I don't think I've inadvertently added any more albums. :oldunsure:

I had a different song from the album on my shortlist

I hear you. I'm reading Herman Wouk's The Winds of War, a book I read long ago when I was 19 or 20. Wouk's prose reads really well but the book is 890 some odd pages long. I read less these days because I don't fly or commute like I used to and there are more screens to distract me now. I...

This thread reappearing on page 1 gives me an opportunity to right a wrong from krista's original project. For some reason, I went with a one song per artist rule for either coverer or coveree. My only Springsteen entry was The Band's excellent cover of "Atlantic City" at #5 which left no room...
