50. "circle the drain" by Soccer Mommy (2020) (12 PTS)
releasing a song in Jan 2020 that captures the urge to regress to a more innocent time to hide from the horrors of where in time you are now, yet the horrors are still lurking at the edges of that song sure is some timing, huh

49. "Wet Dream" by Wet Leg (2021) (11 PTS)
As much as I do like "Chaise Longue," hearing this on the radio and realizing that Wet Leg were potentially not a one-off and could actually be a going concern for a while was a very delightful moment. It's panning out so far!

48. "Pumpkin Seeds" by Aesop Rock x Blockhead (ft.Lupe Fiasco) (2022)
In January '23 I spent a weekend in LA using public transit/walking, and the # of times I played this on loop while walking through DTLA means it gets a spot. As verbally labyrinthine as you'd expect from these two.

47. "Special Treat" by Hello Mary (2023)
botched the hashtag so here's a late repost of a "ah I just want to vote for this song even if it's just me voting for it" because I loved this song a lot. Spooky vocal harmonies! Singing in the round! Grunge guitar! All the stars are here!

46. "Good Luck, Babe!" by Chappell Roan (2024)
I haven't settled on the moment that makes this song an all-timer for me but it might be the sad little sympathy strings that come in on "and I cry/it's not fair." Kind of tongue-in-cheek without actually undercutting the mood. Real good!

44. "Holiday" by Confidence Man (2021)
I already voted for "Janet Planet does some schtick" ConMan, which is my favorite type, but I figure I should also throw a nod to "here's the single that's going to get snapped up for multiple soundtracks " ConMan which is also good.

43. "Brontosaurus" by They Might Be Giants (2021)
A jaunty tune that's either bittersweet reflections on a lifetime being a niche artist on the fringe of mainstream success, craving that validation even if you'd never change yourself to get it, or maybe it's about a literal dinosaur.

42. "Modjeska" by Nightjars (2021)
Pretty song! Another "this turned up in a Pop Poll and lost terribly and I became obsessed with it and put it in a bunch of playlists" pick. Be glad "They Can't Believe He's Risen Again" isn't eligible again for this, is all I have to say.

41. "Hysterical Us" by Magdalena Bay (2021)
I think maybe still my favorite Mag Bay song, even with how great the last album was top to bottom? I haven't listened to the two dozen singles they've put out in the last month, though...

Saw Ginger Root recently and they did a bit where the second half of the show was determined by spinning a wheel, and for the last song they just spun a little "Loretta"-only miniwheel because yeah that's not going anywhere. Nor should it!

39. "Paprika" by Japanese Breakfast (2021)
still have too many songs in my "maybe" pile and going through Choice Paralysis so let's get something from the "for sure" pile on my list. One of the best album openers of the decade! Thusfar! But probably still five years from now!

there's a great TikTok post about '00s fashion that includes the line "I think about how we really wore every accessory at the *same time,*" and that is this song, and that's why this song triumphs at the revivalism game it's playing. More. More!
