My year 2019 in music

Happy New Decade, folks!

It's the most wonderful time for stats. And here I go looking at 9180 scrobbles of 2019.

My scrobbling peak was in August - with 1004 tracks.

Artists

1. Madonna (361 plays)
2. Bear's Den (275 plays)
3. BTS (208 plays)
4. Roosevelt (144 plays)
5. Normandie (142 plays)
6. ONE OK ROCK (117 plays)
7. Lea Porcelain (96 plays)
8. MONSTA X (88 plays)
9. Sheryl Crow (74 plays)
10. H.GichT (73 plays)

Thoughts:

• Welcome to my favs, ONE OK ROCK, Lea Porcelain and MONSTA X.
• That H.GichT play count surprises me. It's my most scrobbled German language act.
• I've seen seven of my top ten acts live already.

• And hello to machineheart, whose 2019 album was really something to listen to in 2019 - from an album-related point of view.
• Among my top German language albums of 2019 are also Juju's "Bling Bling" and "Das muss eine Demokratie aushalten können" by Waving The Guns.

• Caravan Palace's "Miracle" is such an ace bop! Three words: check it out!
• Hello Bec Sandridge, you've contributed my favorite party track of 2019.
• And hello White Lies. Their album "FIVE" made me love them.
• And Big Hit's next best thing - TXT - had a very successful debut, too.
• I'm a bit sad, that the new Céline Dion songs are not all as catchy as the pre-single "Flying On My Own".

 So that's it - my year 2019 in music.
