Now You Can Start to Sweat a Little

You’ve had two doses of this series already and you might be starting to get a little nervous. You may be asking yourself:

“Is she purposefully excluding my favorite records?”

Or perhaps,

“Why are there as many albums in her top 10 as in her top 50?”

And critically,

“Is she confused?”

I am confused, reader. Truly. But I have also devised a very stupid system for tracking the best albums of the year, I’m sticking to that system stubbornly, and these are the results we’re all going to have to accept now.

Just remind yourself that you can find a standard Top 10/50/100/etc. literally anywhere else. Right? Right. Onwards and upwards.
