Best songs of 2021

[Geoff]

I was going to do a top 10 list but it was too weighted towards one band (The Broken View), so instead I decided to post my favourite songs of the year, with the one condition that only one song from each artist could feature. No point putting them in order, as it's not an accurate list, but here's more of less my favourite songs, per artist, from 2021-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Midnite City     -    Darkest Before the Dawn (can't believe there's no clip on youtube for this one)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pretty killer playlist to summarise 2021, if I do say so myself.

Limiting myself to 1 track from each album from my top 5 (omitting the album that is yet to be guessed)

 

 

 

And far and away my # 1 song of 2021... a definite grower and ear worm:

Some of Geoffrey's were also my favourites, but here's a few more:

"Where the Ocean Greets the Sky" is my favourite track from the latest Arion album, but it's technically not a song, so...

 

I'll have to think of others. Much like 2020, it has been difficult to remember what occurred in 2021.

I Prophecise would also be in my top 10 songs of 2021 and is probably the best song on that amazing album just edging out the title track

It was actually by far my favourite song on the album, but every single time 'Allow' came onto my 2022 playlist I was all like, wow, this is utterly superb.

I'd be curious to know which ones in my playlist were in yours, as I am nosey.

the album will be in heavy rotation for many moons to come. it's basically everything I want to hear in modern melodic rock. Such a shame the band imploded

Yeah, I agree that you both meant 'Frequency of love' (lol, it's such a dreadful title for such an awesome song).

4. Loveless - Haunting Me

5. Midnite City - Fire Inside(No video on YouTube) 

6. The Motion Epic - You're Not Ready

7. The Maine - Dirty, Pretty, Beautiful (for me the catchiest tune of the year) 

8. Grayscale - Dirty Bombs

9. At 1980 - Caroline

10. Station - Do You Really Want To Fall In Love Again

11. Chez Kane - Better Than Love

12. W.E.T. - One Final Kiss

13. Nitrate - Big City Lights

Man that Osukaru track is sensational! Wasn't aware of it throughout last year. Will check out the album tonight. 

[auslander]

I could post other songs I have loved this year, and there are many, but this one track stands above all others. It is phenomenal.  Tremonti- If Not For You.

I still remember hearing that for the first time last year... Kinda like listening to Harem Scarem for the first time. Killer pure melodic rock cut.

QFT.

just one of many sensational cuts on that album. 

Also the production on this album puts most others to shame. Michael Baskette is a genius imo
