I'm not a big lover of "Mardy Bum" so my second favorite of that record is "When the Sun Goes Down" closely followed by "Fake Tales of San Francisco".

Want to refresh this now that Spotify does a "Your top songs of 20xx" (obviously this year it's 2018 but they had one last year too and will probably do it every year now). Listening to that playlist now so I guess it's my 10 top and not so random tracks of 2018....

1. Be More Kind - Frank Turner
2. The Modern Leper - Frightened Rabbits
3. This is America - Childish Gambino
4. Smiling at Strangers on Trains - Million Dead
5. Quiet Little Voices - We Were Promised Jetpacks
6. Mi Mi Mi - Serebro
7. Back to You - Selena Gomez
8. Malibu - Miley Cyrus
9. Shape of You - Ed Sheeran
10. Youngblood - Jem and the Holograms

In my defence for some of these tracks, I listened to Spotify more in the summer (listen to podcasts more than spotify now) and a lot of these songs are very summery to me LOL Definitely surprised on some that made it to my top 10.
My, how time flies....

Ahhhhahahahahhahahaha!  My list puts the "random" in "10 random tracks."

1. Adagio for Strings, Op. 11 - Samuel Barber, Leonard Bernstein, New York Philharmonic
2. My Life - Iris DeMent (I am sure I only listened to this once or twice, so I'm not sure how this made the list)
3. Mourning - Michael Brook, from the Brooklyn OST
4. Imagine - John Lennon
5. Enjoy Yourself (It's Later Than You Think) - Jools Holland
6. Fairytale of New York - The Pogues
7. Alpha Beta Parking Lot - Cake
8. Crimson and Clover - Tommy James, The Shondells
9. 7 o'Clock News / Silent Night - Simon & Garfunkel
10. Tequila - Pretenders

Thanks, Spotify!   ::)  This would not make a good playlist.

To be fair, though, most of the time, my husband plays DJ for us when we're listening to Spotify on his account.  I'd like to offer up the top ten from his phone/account.  I might get back to you on this if I remember when he gets home.  That would be a very different list than mine...

KoD, my list is much longer than 10 tracks... did you just stop at 10, or is that all yours had?  I can't think these are ranked in any order, I really don't believe that #2 on my list is the second-most played song on my Spotify.
9/1/2013 - "fiancée" (marriage) visa issued
4/6/2013 - married (certificate issued same-day)
5/6/2013 - FLR(M)#1 in person -- approved!
8/1/2016 - FLR(M)#2 by post -- approved!
8/5/2018 - ILR in person -- approved!
22/11/2018 - Citizenship (online, with NDRS+JCAP) -- approved!
14/12/2018 - I became a British citizen.  :)

I'm always amazed at how many song titles and artists I don't know.  There is so much music in the world, and I know next to none of it!

4/6/2013 - married (certificate issued same-day)
5/6/2013 - FLR(M)#1 in person -- approved!

What a cool idea!

Ours is a really interesting mix as Dave and I share his Spotify account - I refuse to use mine as it will reactivate my Facebook account, and we don't *really* have a need for one of the multi-user ones... Anyway, here we go!

1. ...Ready For It? - Taylor Swift
2. There Was a Time - Patent Pending
3. Just Outside of Austin - Lukas Nelson and Promise of the Real
4. The Oriental (Live in London 2016) - Status Quo
5. Summer Nights - Van Halen
6. The Logical Song - Scooter
7. Carry on Wayward Son - Kansas
8. Hell to Pay - Deep Purple
9. Party All Day - Steel Panther
10. Free Fallin' - Tom Petty

Can't say I'm surprised by the top song.  Rather horrified that Steel Panther made it up there, though - do NOT Google that one at work.

Exactly! I just thought the "Best of" would be a good reason to revive it :) but that doesn't mean people should only post their top songs of the year

Camoscato - I'm now really feeling an urge to listen to Thrice now...It's been SO long..

I wouldn't have any way of knowing what my top songs of the year are... by 'top' do you mean 'most played'?
