Great to see Avril Lavigne's 'Bite Me' and P!nk's 'Irrelevant' on this list. You nail it every time you talk about Avril Lavigne and her music. You nailed it on the Love Sux album review video too.
My top song is also from Gang of Youths, though for me it's In The Wake of your Leave. That song never stopped blowing me away across the whole year. Thanks for introducing me to them. Excellent list as always.
Absolutely delighted to see Taylor twice in the Top 20, Mark! 😊 Looks like we have an early contender for your favourite hit song of 2023 already, haha. :)

Fantastic list, dude. I called your #1 haha that song is on my own best list. I liked it ALMOST as much as in the wake of your leave, and the album is one of my favorites this year - between it and the Deaf Havana one, it may be a tossup. I'm not as adept on 2022's releases as much as I've just dove into album adventures spanning decades, the best thing I heard this year was "The Way We Talk About a Song". I can't convince anyone else it's not boring commercial-core played ultimately safe. But I read between the lines, related it to me, and felt every moment in my soul.
Great to see some Orville Peck here! Bronco is one of my fave albums of 2022 for sure, I think my personal fave might be Let Me Drown (was listening to the album today and I just lay on the floor for that one, man it HIT lmao)
My top 20 songs of 2022: 20. Coheed and Cambria - A Disappearing Act 19. Beach House - Only You Know 18. Why Bonnie - Nowhere, LA 17. Nilüfer Yanya - The Mystic 16. CMAT - Every Bottle (Is My Boyfriend) 15. PLOSIVS - Pines 14. Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever - Blue Eye Lake 13. Yumi Zouma - In The Eyes Of Our Love 12. Shadowgraphs - Loss Prevention 11. Camp Cope - Running With The Hurricane 10. Momma - Lucky 9. AURORA - Blood In The Wine 8. Alvvays - Pharmacist 7. Flock Of Dimes - Pure Love 6. The Beths - 2am 5. Royel Otis - Bull Breed 4. Big Thief - Simulation Swarm 3. Hatchie - Lights On 2. Lou Roy - Uppercut 1. Ethel Cain - Sun Bleached Flies
I personally think that Deaf Havana's 'The Present Is A Foreign Land' is my best album of 2022, straight after I heard it and followed by Architects' 'The Classic Symptoms Of A Broken Spirit' in second and First Aid Kit's 'Palomino' in third place and some of their songs would hit my Best Of List from those albums.

I didn’t listen to a lot of different music this year, though I will get to adeem the artist and Ethel Cain eventually, but here are some songs that I heard and loved (including tracks from the year end) Sweet Nothing by Taylor Swift Numb Little Bug by Em Beihold Something In The Orange by Zach Bryan Circles Around This Town by Maren Morris Vigilante Shit by Taylor Swift Cassandra by Florence and the Machine Vegas by Doja Cat Out of Time by The Weeknd (surprised this didn’t make mark’s list) Midnight Rain by Taylor Swift Blur by Imagine Dragons (I know. But it was one of the only good songs on their album this year and I go back to it constantly, unlike anything from Mercury Act I.) Sirens by Imagine Dragons Daffodil by Florence and the Machine The 30th by Billie Eilish King by Florence and the Machine October Passed Me By by girl in red Boyfriend by Dove Cameron (the mashup with Breakfast from the VMAs is phenomenal) About Damn Time by Lizzo As It Was by Harry Styles (the bells on the final chorus really get it there for me) Carolina by Taylor Swift
one thing I wanna shout out on raydar is a small detail: when jid says "fuck a lighter, I can light on a stove", listen to the percussion. it's a fucking gas stove being lit. genius!

Everything Everything had a ridiculous year. HEX was also awesome from that record, but Cut UP! is my favorite song of the year overall, let alone my favorite on the album. Crazy work from the band. I will say, I find myself humming My Computer regularly though. It’s so catchy.
Yearly tradition, some nice surprises on this list, but here are some of my favorites in no particular order: ‘Something In The Orange’ (Z&E Version) - Zach Bryan ‘Walkin’ - Denzel Curry ‘Surround Sound’ - J.I.D ft. 21 Savage & Baby Tate ‘FALLING OFF’ - Duke Deuce ft. Rico Nasty ‘Swamp Bitches’ - Doechii & Rico Nasty ‘emo girl’ - Machine Gun Kelly ft. WILLOW ‘Forever’ - Rod Wave ‘By Your Side’ - Rod Wave ‘When You’re Gone’ - Shawn Mendes ‘She Had Me At Heads Carolina’ - Cole Swindell ‘Out Of Time’ - The Weeknd ‘MS. MURAL’ - Lupe Fiasco Some comments on your list: Surprised the followed missed the Top 100: ‘Forever’ - Rod Wave Any Rico Nasty ‘Walkin’ - Denzel Curry ‘Going, Going, Gone’ - Luke Combs More Zach Bryan Also, minor spoilers: #1 hit made the best songs list 3 years in a row!!! :)
I didn't listen to that many albums in 2022. But from what I did listen to: 1. Million Miles Away by Belle - English Version 2. Body Bag by I Prevail 3. Special by Lizzo 4. ABC by Polyphia 5. Hi De Ho by Jack White 6. Gales Of Song by Belle - English Version 7. Rumbaton by Daddy Yankee 8. Open A Window by Rex Orange County 9. Dawn FM by The Weeknd(Title Track) 10 Gold Rush Kid by George Ezra 11 Beautiful Losers by Coheed And Cambria 12. Let Em Go by The Interrupters 13 Stay Alive by Jungkook 14 Golden Hour by JVKE 15 Out Of Time by The Weeknd 16. L'Enfer by Stromae
Thanks for reminding me I wanted to check out "Preacher's Daughter" when it was released in April. Totally disturbing but astonishing, especially when taking into account it's her debut. That live Version on KEXP of "Thoroughfare" is just amazing.
The Words You Spoke Still Move Me by Ellevator from last year was pretty solid I think and I really liked their EP in 2018 their music sound more interesting from there than other pop music I've heard lately
Never really connected with the Ethel Cain album, but I do fully understand the hype. That being said, I am *FULLY* aboard for the Gang of Youths love this year. That album wowed me.
I had the joy of seeing them on tour for this record and goddamn was it special. Angel in Realtime is a masterpiece and the band made something near-perfect and so beautifully personal.
Damn, dude things took a dark turn with that cheerleader song. Also, some of your country picks make me think of Timmy the Teeth and Joshua James. If you haven’t listened to them, you should.
dropping my tops as requested: Said The Sky · Parachute · Will Anderson - Emotion Sickness Winnetka Bowling League · Demi Lovato - fiimy (fuck it, i miss you) Sebastián Yatra · Aitana - Las Dudas Said The Sky · ILLENIUM · Chelsea Cutler - Walk Me Home Avril Lavigne - F.U. Sigrid · Bring Me The Horizon - Bad Life The Wonder Years - The Paris of Nowhere Sueco - Loser State Champs - Eventually Musithical - Thorns Kody Kavitha - My Frankenstein (from the Netflix Series "Dead End: Paranormal Park") Rich Brian · Warren Hue - Getcho Mans The Midnight - Brooklyn. Friday. Love. Rina Sawayama - Phantom Vylet Pony - i've still got something to teach you Denzel Curry - Walkin ILLENIUM · Teddy Swims - All That Really Matters TALK - Run Away to Mars Conan Gray - Astronomy G Flip - GAY 4 ME (feat. Lauren Sanderson)
I'm not into bass music, but I heard a happy hardcore remix of Emotion Sickness (by B2A & Anklebreaker) just yesterday and it immediately became one of my favourites of 2022. Sadly no official release though :(
My favorite song of the year was "Spiritual Level of Gang Shit." I kinda forgot how the rest of the album sounds because of how much I replayed that one. My favorite song on the Father John Misty album was "The Next 20th Century."
I don't really listen to newer music but listening to this year end countdown list majority of this stuff sounds like alot of the older music I grew up listening too when I was a kid in the '80s and a teenager in the '90s I definitely got to check out some of these Artists and Bands thanks Obnoxious Canadian Guy P.S.( I'm kidding) lol.
Great list, but there were way too many repeat artists. I know you've said you prefer honesty over avoiding repeat artists, but there were just way too many of those this time around. I think it's better to give everyone a fair chance, really. NO DENZELLL WHYYY Walkin is personally my song of the year.
I'm surprised to see no Weyes Blood. ITDHA isn't as good as Titanic Rising, but God Turn Me Into A Flower is probably the best song of this year for me.
That Avril Lavigne Commentary was so spot on, got me nodding my head.
Great to see Avril Lavigne's 'Bite Me' and P!nk's 'Irrelevant' on this list.
You nail it every time you talk about Avril Lavigne and her music.
You nailed it on the Love Sux album review video too.
It's me, hi, on the thumbnail It's me

Clever
It’s me, hi, Aquilas father from the grave
10/10 comment here 😎
My top song is also from Gang of Youths, though for me it's In The Wake of your Leave. That song never stopped blowing me away across the whole year.

Fantastic list, dude. I called your #1 haha that song is on my own best list. I liked it ALMOST as much as in the wake of your leave, and the album is one of my favorites this year - between it and the Deaf Havana one, it may be a tossup.
I'm not as adept on 2022's releases as much as I've just dove into album adventures spanning decades, the best thing I heard this year was "The Way We Talk About a Song". I can't convince anyone else it's not boring commercial-core played ultimately safe. But I read between the lines, related it to me, and felt every moment in my soul.
Great to see some Orville Peck here! Bronco is one of my fave albums of 2022 for sure, I think my personal fave might be Let Me Drown (was listening to the album today and I just lay on the floor for that one, man it HIT lmao)
My top 20 songs of 2022:
20. Coheed and Cambria - A Disappearing Act
19. Beach House - Only You Know
18. Why Bonnie - Nowhere, LA
17. Nilüfer Yanya - The Mystic
16. CMAT - Every Bottle (Is My Boyfriend)
15. PLOSIVS - Pines
14. Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever - Blue Eye Lake
13. Yumi Zouma - In The Eyes Of Our Love
12. Shadowgraphs - Loss Prevention

10. Momma - Lucky
9. AURORA - Blood In The Wine
8. Alvvays - Pharmacist
7. Flock Of Dimes - Pure Love
6. The Beths - 2am
5. Royel Otis - Bull Breed
4. Big Thief - Simulation Swarm
3. Hatchie - Lights On
2. Lou Roy - Uppercut
1. Ethel Cain - Sun Bleached Flies
I personally think that Deaf Havana's 'The Present Is A Foreign Land' is my best album of 2022, straight after I heard it and followed by Architects' 'The Classic Symptoms Of A Broken Spirit' in second and First Aid Kit's 'Palomino' in third place and some of their songs would hit my Best Of List from those albums.

‘Walkin’ - Denzel Curry

Love Out of time
Hi-De-Ho is such a chaotic pick for the top 5 and I'm all here for it
@@elephantcubed4133 I mean, it's easily one of the most interesting and innovative modern rock songs.
JID might be one of my favorite rappers right now.
Everything Everything on a best list FINALLY
Thanks for reminding me I wanted to check out "Preacher's Daughter" when it was released in April. Totally disturbing but astonishing, especially when taking into account it's her debut.
That live Version on KEXP of "Thoroughfare" is just amazing.
I suspect everyone who heard Angel In Realtime has one or more of its songs at the top of their lists (for the record mine is You In Everything).
I have to share that my mom from Scottsboro, AL loved “Bonfire at Tina’s”
The Words You Spoke Still Move Me by Ellevator from last year was pretty solid I think and I really liked their EP in 2018 their music sound more interesting from there than other pop music I've heard lately
Never really connected with the Ethel Cain album, but I do fully understand the hype. That being said, I am *FULLY* aboard for the Gang of Youths love this year. That album wowed me.
I had the joy of seeing them on tour for this record and goddamn was it special. Angel in Realtime is a masterpiece and the band made something near-perfect and so beautifully personal.
Damn, dude things took a dark turn with that cheerleader song.
Also, some of your country picks make me think of Timmy the Teeth and Joshua James. If you haven’t listened to them, you should.

@Sonny Oliver Cortez dropped on an album in 2022
I'm not into bass music, but I heard a happy hardcore remix of Emotion Sickness (by B2A & Anklebreaker) just yesterday and it immediately became one of my favourites of 2022. Sadly no official release though :(
I didn’t expect a new Avantasia album so soon after Moonglow. It’s better then Moonglow but still nowhere close to Ghostlights.
25:32 bro as much as I love this song and am very happy u put it one here, it was released like mid 2021 ahaha
My favorite song of the year was "Spiritual Level of Gang Shit." I kinda forgot how the rest of the album sounds because of how much I replayed that one.
My favorite song on the Father John Misty album was "The Next 20th Century."
I don't really listen to newer music but listening to this year end countdown list majority of this stuff sounds like alot of the older music I grew up listening too when I was a kid in the '80s and a teenager in the '90s I definitely got to check out some of these Artists and Bands thanks Obnoxious Canadian Guy P.S.( I'm kidding) lol.
I have this thing where I like music, but just never critique it. I’m no Grondin and that’s a fact.
YES JID
Very brave of you to put Kid Rock and AJR at every spot
multiple appearances from ethel cain and taylor swift? love this
I liked every Deaf Havana clip here and I was about to go check them out but I cannot get emotionally invested in a band that’s breaking up again lol
Great list, but there were way too many repeat artists. I know you've said you prefer honesty over avoiding repeat artists, but there were just way too many of those this time around. I think it's better to give everyone a fair chance, really.
NO DENZELLL WHYYY
Walkin is personally my song of the year.
Same. I'm surprised that he's never been mentioned on many of the best lists that I've read
@@masterdriver132 I saw your message in the live chat and I'm with you. Denzel deserves to be on this list. Walkin is a hip hop rager for the ages.
Yayy Taylor Swift and JID!
Mark... please go to my comment, click replies and block the user that goes by the name "The One", I just... want his ass gone, we all do.
😂😂😂
Banning me won’t bring Aquilas dad back to to life lol
yeah but at least we won't see again this Walmart version of Youngbassking and GOOD RIDDANCE if it happens!
The new premiere intro is a bit lame isn’t?
Anything by swift or bey this year
No
No…
ohh metric!
I'm surprised to see no Weyes Blood. ITDHA isn't as good as Titanic Rising, but God Turn Me Into A Flower is probably the best song of this year for me.
