[John Dule]

I had an insane upset #1 pick this year. Consistently, Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, Bob Dylan, and CCR jockey for my top slot-- but this year they were numbers 2-5. My number one? Mazzy Star. Just cannot get enough of Hope Sandoval's voice.

Top songs:

1) Blue Flower (Mazzy Star)
2) Can't Find My Way Home (Blind Faith)
3) Into the Mystic (Van Morrison)
4) Ride it On (Mazzy Star)
5) Sunshine Superman (Donovan)

Burlington VT is the closest city to my taste.

You'll be fine in general didn't show up much for me this year it looks like. Probably because I listened to it so much last year, Pilot had more novelty to me this year, and obviously Why Would I Watch? was completely new. Only songs from you'll be fine in my Top Songs playlist were BCKYRD, *equips sunglasses*, and SPS. Weird because it's probably my favorite of their 3 albums

It's the only album of theirs that I own on vinyl, but also ironically probably my most played on streaming, because if I'm listening to it and have to head out of the apartment I want to keep listening to it so I'll stream it on my phone into my car/headphones.

What's "Country road" and who is Garage Morning?

I have no idea what "country road" is, but I can only assume that has something to do with Tom Petty.

Garage Morning is a lesser-known alt/indie band from the Philippines. I thought I'd mentioned them one time and you approved.

It says I am most similar to Bozeman, MT due to being a fan of The Band, Alabama, and Bob Dylan.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

I'm surprised by the lack of rap considering how Atlas likes to finger wag at people who don't listen to it.
