The 2018's Songs I Played the Most.
In follow up to the previous post of the 2018's albums i prefer the most, below are the list of songs i played the most throughout the past year (regardless their release dates). These ten numbers are almost on the stereo in frequently equal. With particular order:
10. Deftones - Headup (Around The Fur, 1997).
My hero of ecclectic witcher. On one random day i was surfing my Spotify and it offered in my Daily Mix. I did click it and the rest was an adorable banging stuff i used to listen often than ever when i was in high school. Then i chose to do it again in 2018.
9. While She Sleeps - Hurricane (You Are We, 2017).
The strongest track on their greatest record so far, You Are We. I can't believe that i have been with it since out. A fine melodic riff, radio friendly hook, and punk rock ethic. What a mix.
8. As I Lay Dying - My Own Grave (Single, 2018).
A comeback after the sentence of the frontman, Tim Lambesis. And it blows like a flood. A fiery rage and fierceful riff deployed as saying hello again to those abandoned fans. I know whatever that comes up from them, it must be something.
7. Palaye Royale - Mr. Doctor Man (Boom Boom Room, 2017).
The craft i have been looking for all these times and so grateful from now on that rock music is keep blooming somewhere place in a world that despises it.
6. The Smith - Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now (Louder Than Bombs, 1987).
I have no idea nor ever digging out this album before. Better late than never since there are bunch of golds within the record. On a windy morning, this song remained at all the time of the year.
5. Rachael Yamagata - Worthless (Porch Songs, 2018).
She has always been in my radar for years and when Worthless out, it was an instant to get it. I mean, how can yo resist the things that have been constantly a feed to your feeling? This song is precious, delicate, and blissful.
4. Portishead - It's A Fire (Dummy, 1994).
Everytime i imagine a kid who had a trouble to fit his surroundings met this song, that should be a big day for him consider what power of this song can do. Because whenever it bursts, none of thing matters. Like i did as that kid.
3. Prince - I Would Die 4 U (Purple Rain, 1984).
What loss can comprehend his forever absence? A genius beautiful mind who sings in the window of your very soul. This song is beyond of what it could achieve in the mind of a man. Don't die without sleeping over this.
2. Depeche Mode - Personal Jesus (Violator, 1990).
A personal healing for me. Just as what Martin Gore told, "It's a song about being a Jesus for somebody else, someone to give you hope and care." It is true. The song i wish i made.
1. Ghost - Dance Macabre (Prequelle, 2018).
Ever since hearing that they would have the album to be released, i was doubtlessly engaged. And it turned out epic. I have never been so moved and never found anything as it is at least for this past decade. It is ultimately a creation of no human, to be clear.
