I’m back again with some of my favorite songs of 2016. I should warn that a good third of these weren’t even released in 2016, but I just really, really liked them this year. Also, most year end music lists tend to be a list of 10, but this is a list of 20 because, yes I do have commitment issues when it comes to music, and no it doesn’t need to be addressed because it’s just fine. 🙂

Devil Like Me // Rainbow Kitten Surprise (Jan. in FL is weird and kinda sad, but still good)

Harry Dean // SWMRS (The scream in the beginning !! I still love Cole Becker)

Brazil // Declan McKenna (I listened to this song exclusively for like a week straight lol)

17 // Youth Lagoon (YL is so important to me and it meant the world to see them live before their end. Thanks you Trevor Powers, for everything).

Murmurs // Hundred Waters (New favs after seeing them at Okeechobee, so dreamy-beautiful; the whole dang performance)

Harvard // Diet Cig (Good one for scream-singing in the car. Alex and Noah are the cutest ever, also I have Alex’s phone number 😉 )

Told Ya So // Adult Mom (June, where do we go from here?)

Good As Hell // Lizzo (what a ‘gettin ready’ ANTHEM!)

Glasgow // Catfish and The Bottlemen (Still waiting to hear this one live…)

Lover’s Carvings // Bibio (4th of July, running down the streets holding hands like its a damn music video, happy)

Pleasure Shrug // The Florists (July, Christy, mosh pits, yoga on a parking ramp, MPLS)

Real Love Baby // Father John Misty (“what more can I ask for!?”)

Deja Vu // Beach Bunny (the literal last day in FL, a bittersweet goodbye, more tears than expected)

Diamond Mine // Hop Along (Monday mornings in the art studio that I will miss.)

A Living Human Girl // The Regrettes (Rookie Mag, my love)

Cannon // Kitten Forever (Hawaiian Teeth Something Something. First time live :’) )

Joanie // The Front Bottoms (twice in one year, so good :’) )

On Hold // The XX (an ode to sad, 15 year old me and the month I listened to nothing but The XX)

Monsoon // Hippo Campus (“Damn. Those boys just keep getting better and better.”)
