14. Kali Uchis - Tomorrow
Average: 14 SD: 4.0824
Another artist where I have a tough time deciding which single to include, even from this album.

13. Cibo Matto - Sugar Water
Average: 13.28571 SD: 5.765
This and Beef Jerky were big listens last year. I swear I would've thrown Birthday Cake on here.

12. yeule - ghosts
Average: 12.857 SD: 7.403
Among my new favorite modern musicians. Of course dazies is among the best songs of the year, but I wanted to give recognition to this one in an RD.

11. Little Simz - 101 FM
Average: 10.4298 SD: 5.061
Like I said, I'd get into Little Simz more, and I did find more great tracks. Gorilla is another of last year's best songs, but this stuck with me from her 2019 album.

10. Mos Def - Brooklyn
Average: 10 SD: 6.879922
I've been stanning this album for years on the site, and throwing tracks on RDs plenty. Wanted to give another spot to this, as there are so many damn great things about it, from the opening Under The Bridge interpolation, to the beat changes.

9. Japanese Breakfast - Kokomo, IN
Average: 9.587 SD: 5.459
Took a bit longer for this to be my favorite from them.

Another apology to the fact I called her
8. Tomoko Aran - Midnight Pretenders
Average: 8.857 SD: 7.081
Last year was the song that sampled it, and this year it's the OG.

7. The Specials - Ghost Town
Average: 8.7142 SD: 7.341
Another among the "greatest of all time" that grew on me. Bizarrely, think that was from Wendell & Wild.

8. Tomoko Aran - Midnight Pretenders
Last year was the song that sampled it, and this year it's the OG.
Aside from The Weeknd's song, I thought I had heard this song used before for vaporwave music.

Double combo loss this time.
4. The The - This is the Day
Average: 7.5714 SD: 5.968
This one I was into way before it was announced for the Guardians Vol 3. soundtrack. I remember it as earliest from an M&Ms commercial and yeah, it kicks so much ass.

3. R.E.M. - Radio Free Europe
Average: 6.571 SD: 5.442
This was such a tight top 5, I had no idea what would've won.

Regardless of what Coldplay puts out nowadays, Don't Panic holds up as a classic and is one of the most beautiful 2 minute songs I've ever heard.
