Amazon Music Year In Review

Amazon Music has shared stats for my listening this year.
Eric and I share a paid premium account, and I will say he really skewed my results, but Amazon tells me I (okay, we) spent 19,831 minutes listening to music this past year! That's more than 14 days. 

 
My most played song of 2024 is “Watch The World Burn” by Falling in Reverse.  This makes sense since it is the first track on my main running playlist. 

I (we) listened to 207 different artists over the year. The most played band was Beartooth and that is 98% from Eric.

My most listened to Glam artists and songs surprised me. I listened to Tesla and Winger the most of our beloved classics and Richie Kotzen from the newer breed. “What You Give” (Tesla) and “Headed for a Heartbreak” (Winger) got the most plays when it comes to Glam – and I think Eric skewed that Winger track, too. Tesla’s “Modern Day Cowboy” also made the list.

My most listened-to genres of music were rock, metalcore, metal and post-hardcore. No kidding. My most-played non-rock track of 2024 was “Majesty” by Apashe. One more band on my list you’ve probably never heard of but should know? Stray View.

The song I’ve never heard ever and thus 100% belongs to Eric? That would be “Holiday” by Boys Like Girls.

Did Steely Dan make the list? Of course! They show up three times, and all songs are from my beloved The Royal Scam, natch.

Fun stuff.

Bring Back Glam! Favorite Albums Of 2023

Now that 2023 is officially over and behind us, I wanted to share some of my favorite releases of the past year.

These are in no particular order – just stuff I really enjoyed and kept coming back to, time after time. An asterisk means I bought the vinyl version, too!   

  • Conquer Divide, Slow Burn*
  • Dirty Honey, Can’t Find The Brakes
  • Beartooth, The Surface
  • I See Stars, D4MAGE DONE
  • Stray View (Dave Escamilla new project), “What’s Done Is Done” (just a song but I hope the future album is just as good!)
  • Asking Alexandria, Where Do We Go From Here?
  • Steel Panther, On The Prowl
  • Attack Attack! Dark Waves*
  • Winger, Seven
  • Def Leppard with the Royal Philharmonic, Drastic Symphonies *
  • Falling In Reverse, Neon Zombie (well, really the track “Watch The World Burn”)
  • The Rolling Stones, Hackney Diamonds

The video for "Watch The World Burn" has to be the best music clip of the year, by far:

ShipRocked 2023 Bands Announced

The next ShipRocked cruise will take place at the end of January 2023. A first round of bands was released today, including Falling In Reverse as one of the headliner acts. Lots of cabins are already booked but there are some left, so if this lineup interests you, I would move on it. The cruise sails to Half Moon Cay, Amber Cove and Grand Turk.
