30. Letter To Hermione (1969)
A heartfelt glimpse into Bowie’s personal life, before he adopted more theatrical personas. Great composition, tasteful arrangement.

Beatles baroque Bowie may not be my favourite DB era, but the songwriting skills he displays on this album are quite spectacular.

7. Big Black: Atomizer
Just realised it was released 1 January 1986, but I’ll post it anyway, to avoid a hole in the list 😅

1. Georgia Lee (1999)
The perfect showcase of Tom’s songwriting capabilities. Deceptively simple, tremendously beautiful. Thanks for organizing @top10nathan.bsky.social

2. Cold Cold Ground (1988)
A magical live performance that elevated an already superb song to even greater heights.

2. Depeche Mode: Enjoy The Silence (1990)
The song that shaped my taste in music more than any other, but on top of that it still sounds absolutely gorgeous!

3. Massive Attack: Three (1994)
Nicolette somehow manages to simultaneously express wonder and grief, and it’s the most wonderful thing I’ve heard from the world of trip hop.

4. Jeff Mills: Nepta (1996)
This energetic piece of psychotic tech drama is probably my favourite Detroit techno track of all time.

Lyrics, composition, arrangement and performance by a 23yo. A jaw-dropping achievement.

5. Theo Parrish: Electric Alleycat (1998)
I’ve never really understood what TP does to tweak his machines, but the result is so beyond funky it’s nearly unbelievable.

The competition is fierce, but of all the magnificent Tom Waits ballads, this one is my favourite.

7. Stars Of The Lid: Be Little With Me (1996)
I respond to music with a range of emotions, but it rarely makes me shed tears. However, this exceptional drone/ambient piece by Texas duo SOTL actually does.
