Yes folks, it’s end of the year list time. Why do people like lists so much? Nobody knows (psychologists, please prove me wrong), but the Beehive is happy to jump on the gravy train.
So without further ado here are my playlists of the best songs I’ve heard this year. It’s cleverly entitled Bart’s Big Beats 2010. Feel free to judge me.
The first is new songs and the second is songs from the past that I really should have loved before now. I’ve included links to Beehive City’s Spotify account for your listening pleasure.
(Disclaimer: I’m well aware that some or all of these songs may not float your boat. But that’s why lists made by other people are usually rubbish. If you feel very strongly that I’ve failed please enjoy making your own compilation. And don’t forget to tell us about it.)
