Okay I am a total listwhore
Maybe it’s because they tend to come out around Christmas and I tend to exhaust every list I come across and find lots of music that I really really like, that I get this whole Christmas-morning “let’s unwrap presents” sensation from any P4K song list. Anyway, I love lists and I know far too much about them.
I have P4K’s list from five years ago backed up! I’ve been mentally comparing placements on this list to the P4K 500 (i.e. funny that “Party Hard” never made the book…). I am literally worried by how high the Hold Steady will place, because they are awful. I am excited to see how 2009 shakes out on the list and how bands that really picked up steam in recent years (The National, Hot Chip, Deerhunter) fare. What about really old albums? Will we get different tracks because some have aged better? How about remixes?
But yeah, I have far too much fun with these. I don’t even really read the site anymore.
