Songs of the Year 2021

Oh, did you think I was done with year-end lists? There’s one more.

Earlier this week, Petal Motel released our favorite albums of the year. Now here’s a playlist of some of our favorite songs from the past year. I avoided picking songs from albums that I view as concepts as a whole, and instead focused on songs that stood out on their own (hence many songs from albums on the AOTY list not appearing here). Also, there were way too many great albums that came out this year. Ok, is this enough text for search engine optimization? I hope you had a good year and things are getting better. I really appreciate everyone who reads my blog and it boggles my mind when some stranger randomly posts about it and I’m like “wow, people read this?” It’s cool! Maybe in 2022 I’ll put out an album. Did you know I’m in a band now? I don’t write songs, I just play rhythm guitar, but it’s fun and I got paid for the first time so I guess technically I can count myself as a professional. I’m one of you now. OK thank you for listening and reading, buy music on Bandcamp! Support artists!
