Cant say it's been an amazing year.
Tove Lo, Tinashe and BANKS have made it more interesting for me.
Wish there were more interesting male artistes making interesting music though.

Right!? I downloaded it literally the minute it came out and bought the physical CD too All Hands On Deck, Bated Breath, Bet and Pretend are my favourites at the moment but I've been obsessed with just about every song at one point, even the interludes haha which are great!

Only Paloma's and Sam's!

I'm so happy to see Paloma so high though. Her album really is absolutely brilliant, saw her live too and her voice is unmatched by most today!

zero. Though i'll probably buy the Arctic Monkeys' album one day. A quarter of that list are 'heritage' acts, the polite term for old fossils!

25 ROCK OR BUST AC/DC

And that's it.

I get 95% of my music from Bandcamp these days. Not much chance of most of the music I buy making it into the charts.

None. I've got some fantastic albums this year but none of those will ever trouble the charts

Yet you managed to purchase the 2 worst albums from that list. I only purchased London Grammar from that list.

Only Taylor Swift. I'm exceptionally fussy with music, almost never buy albums. I also listen to a lot of old music (don't get excited: I mean I listen to 5ive's Greatest Hits very regularly)

All Hands On Deck is so immediate and addictive, also Far Side Of The Moon. I'm using this time to grow my appreciation for the other understated gems haha. 2 On goes without saying. Pretty obsessed with Bet I must admit! The interludes actually fit well which is a big plus!

I LOVE the fact that Dolly is so high Paloma has done magnificently too.

Also, whilst i'm not a fan of hers. It's impressive see an artist like Barbra Streisand so high on the list despite doing practically no promotion for it. That is the sign of a true legend!

I'm fussy with albums. I'll buy 3 or 4 tracks from an album but if I don't like almost all of the tracks then I won't buy it. I've never bought an album without listening to it first. I may do that for the first time when Rihanna's new album comes out as I've loved every album of hers so far.

I thought about buying the Royal Blood one.
None of the others. Used to like The Foo Fighters but have become bored of them. Pink Floyd despite being their last is mostly instrumental, so no to that as well.

The rest, wouldn't have them if I was given them. 0.
