#30: Your Favourite Song at This Time Last Year

I spent much of last spring listening to Beach House's then-new album, Teen Dream. Though it doesn't quite match Devotion for dreamy but nonchalant blissfulness, it's beautiful nontheless and songs like Silver Soul are absolutely inspired. This is the closing song, and it's lovely.

#29: A Song From Your Childhood

Fun fact: there is in existence home video footage of me dancing around the room to this at age seven. No, you do not get to see it. Ever.



The worst part? I thought I was SO badass because I liked these over Boyzone.

#28: A Song That Makes You Feel Guilty



Arguably a bit of an obvious one, but there was nothing else for it. It makes me feel horrendously guilty, and so it should. There is no ethical justification for eating animals; it's pure greed. I've been re-evaluating my relationship with meat a lot recently. I don't know if I could go full veggie (yet), but pesceterianism is definitely an option. One more play of this song might just push me over.

#25: A Song That Makes You Laugh

This C86 gem was a contender for my least favourite song 'til I listened to it again and realised that it's madly entertaining - in its way. It's great because it's so irredemably awful, which is surely as good a reason as any.
