Jas' 2016 Songs of the Year (or something)
So, since everyone's freaking out and doing their year end lists now, I figured I'd join in. However, I will not be doing my AOTY list until the actual end of the year.. go figure, yeah? So instead, here's a bunch of songs that have been on repeat/stuck in my fucking head all year, or just in general stuck out to me or were the wow moment that got me hooked on a record this year. |
