New Post! 2019 Year End Countdown

2019 comes to a close and, as usual, we are counting down the top charting songs of the year. Pay no attention to the fact that it's March. We're getting there! I love Year End Countdowns and this one is a very good one, with more than a couple of surprised in store for you! Enjoy!

New Countdown!: September 2019!

Well the first thing that we have to take care of is the fact that I skipped August's Artist of the Month. So we do a little backtracking on that front, but then we have a bunch of new songs and one BIG Grammy winner! Enjoy!

New Countdown: July 2019!

Matt Maeson

Well, if anything, we could say that July was pretty Sublime. Eh? Eh? But seriously, this is an excellent and fairly quick episode. It's chock full of excellent tunes. Some old, some new, and some new covers of old stuff. Enjoy!

New Countdown!: May 2019

Hey hey hey! I haven't quite let NaNoWriMo defeat me yet! Sure, I'm very behind, but I'm still trucking along and I hope you're still along for the ride with me! This is a short one, but a very fun one :)

New Countdown!: April 2019

Taking Back Sunday

NaNoWriMo continues this weekend! Saturday's episode is all about the songs that were on the Top Ten in April of 2019 and an especially NON-Saturday Artist of the Month. It's a good episode with some new ones as well as some old favorites.

New Countdown: March 2019!

Cage the Elephant

I'm now worried that I spent a lot of this episode referring to it as the February 2019 list. Hopefully not, because NaNoWriMo MARCHES on! (See what I did there?). It's really fun to have given myself a requirement to do these countdowns. I love them a lot. And I hope you do too!

New Countdown!: January 2019

Imagine Dragons

Well here it is! The first month of 2019 covered! Haha I think I have things semi-sorted now and I'm hoping (i know i say this all the time, but whatever lol) to start getting these out with more of a quickness, so that we can wrap the year in a caught-up sort of place.

Enjoy!

2018 Year End Countdown!!

Portugal. The Man

It's a little late (only.......8 or so months late...) but here it is. The Year-End Countdown for 2018. It's fun to look back at the songs that were hitting the chart hard in 2018 and this was a lot of fun to do! Enjoy!

New Countdown: Well, Not "New" In All the Ways, But Certainly in Some of the Ways

Muse

Hey. Here is a countdown of the songs that were on the Alternative Songs Top 10 in December 2018. Relevant? Probably not. But it's a batch of good, fun tunes and I think you might enjoy them a lot! Hit play and see if I'm right!

Top Ten Tuesday: Taylor Swift featuring Brendan Urie (of Panic! At the Disco) - ME!

It's always nice when I don't even have to watch the video for this post because I've seen it several times already. I watched it once on my own, watched it twice with my kids, probably watched it again on my own, saw a making-of video. This has been a big deal and the fact that Old Town Road is holding this one from #1 speaks volumes. I love this song and I'm excited for the album

New Countdown (November 2018): Quote Unquote

lovelytheband

We're doing some more catch up this episode and this time it's November 2018! Good songs, an artist of the month I know very little about and hopefully the establishment of a momentum to keep these things coming!

New Countdown (October 2018): Eyes on the Prize

twentyonepilots. I just realized how appropriate this is for October

Hey. So the last time you heard me on this show, I was talking about switching up the format a little bit to catch up. Well this is the first episode of that and I think it went fairly well. I'm hoping to get these out with a fair amount of regularity, then get back to doing week-by-week. But holding this format in my back pocket if I might need it. Enjoy!

New Countdown: Two Different Armstrongs!

Imagine Dragons

And so we reach the end of September 2018. But fear not, we're going to be switching things up for the next couple of episodes and I'm very excited about it. Here's a fun thing, I didn't come up with this new plan until a couple of days before I recorded the intro for lovelytheband, so when you listen to me before that on the show, you know something that I don't. And then stay tuned to the last intro to hear what the plan actually is.

Top Ten Tuesday Two-fer: Halsey "Without Me" and Panic! At the Disco "High Hopes"

So last week, I had it all set up to post about this Halsey song, but I never got around to it, so here that is. This song is very good and I like the nod to Justin Timberlake's "Cry Me a River". The video is very compelling too!

And then here is a song by Panic! At the Disco which is on the Top Ten, which listeners to the podcast can expect to hear a lot of in the coming weeks! A LOT OF.

New Countdown: Countdown? More like GET Down!

Foster the People

I feel like there are a lot of songs (and bonus songs) on this week's countdown that are designed to get you moving! So take this one out on the dance floor and cut a rug! Then take those rug pieces and give them to someone who collects things cut in half! They'll love it! And you'll love making it!
