It's Spotify Wrapped Day, and nothing is more fascinating than your past self-- last year my number one artist was Waxahatchee and four of my five top songs were from the Waxahatchee album St. Cloud . . . this year, though I would not have guessed this (because I've been listening to a lot of Afropop and jazz lately) I did this obsessive absurdity one better-- my top artist was once again Waxahatchee and all five of my top songs were from Katie Crutchfield's new album, Tiger's Blood . . . I guess I wore that album out last spring (and then we went to see her in the summer) although if you asked me to name my favorite song, I would say "Lone Star Lake" and that was not on the list (which consisted of Right Back to It, 3 Sisters, Evil Spawn, Ice Cold, and Bored) which is kind of strange-- and the other artists in my top five are Ty Segall, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, Ezra Collective, and The Smile . . . the first time in a while The Grateful Dead did not make my top five; in other Wrapped news, there was no genre breakdown in this year-- pretty annoying-- especially since I listened to over 39,000 minutes of music and 1,556 artists, so it would be nice to know the breakdown of all that-- perhaps they'll bring that feature back next year.
