Favorite Music of 2017


My very late and incomplete list of my favorite music released in 2017.

  Edit: Updated list to add more music.

Artist: Various Artists
Album: Fifty Shades Darker Soundtrack
Highlights:  "What Is Love?" by Frances and "I Don't Wanna Live Forever" by Zayn and Taylor Swift
The only good thing about these movies are their soundtracks

Highlights: "Faux Suede Drifter" and "Systemagic"

Artist: Gorillaz

Highlights: "Momentz" and "Ticker Tape"

Artist: Imagine Dragons
Album: Evolve
Highlights: "Believer" and "Rise Up
I get the feeling that Imagine Dragons are going to end up like Nickelback.  They are wildly popular now, but in ten years they are going to be a punchline and everyone will deny they ever liked them.

"Road Head" is the saddest song about giving road head ever.
