According to Last.FM the all time list is

Weighted by a lot of things obviously.

The last 365 days looks like this:

By the way, this means that I’ve listened to the tracks on Kvelertak’s Splid more than I’ve listened to every track on every Depeche Mode album while I did

Let's review every Depeche Mode album in turn - Analysis on post 166

Yeah Depeche Mode. I don’t know anything about them. I can name two of their songs: Just Can’t Get Enough, which I was never much of a fan of, and Barrel of a Gun (? or maybe that’s the album in which case the lead single) which I recall liking but can’t actually remember the tune of. So let’s go through each album in turn and rate it out of five. Even better, I think, if you don’t know them at all.

[avocado]

Quite tickled by the fact that the band I love the most and the band that made the song I love the most share the same acronym despite their vast differences

[BMS1]

I haven’t heard Sarabeth Tucek mentioned in ages. I haven’t heard her in years either.

Loved her Luminaire gig many many years ago. I’ll re-listen to her eponymous album on the way to work tomorrow.

In order to reply to this thread I’ll need to think of who my ten fave bands or artists are and then type them out into a list

[barleysugar]

Got 3/4 of the way through mine and decided it was too embarrassing and that I’m an absolute joke of a man

[anon19035908]

What would be really funny is if you posted your list, and there were either 9 (1 too few) or 11 (1 too many) names on it.

[anon5266188]

That’s a good example of some of the mistakes I’d be hoping to avoid as a result of careful planning were I to contribute to this thread

[pervo]

We have 3 of the same LastFM top 6! (Swift, Magnetic Fields, Suede)

[tilty]

Oasis
Kaiser Chiefs
The La’s
Kasabian
Foo Fighters
Arctic Monkeys

James
