In no particular order, I've selected the favorite tracks from 2017's playlists for our sixteenth annual Choice Cuts end-of-year mix. Here are the next six:
7. The Gold — Manchester Orchestra
A beautiful song, and it's all about that harmonic chorus one minute in.
8. Noise Pollution (Feat. Mary Elizabeth Winstead & Zoe Manville) — Portugal. The Man
Everyone was all about Portugal. The Man's "Feel It Still" this year, but "Noise Pollution" was the much more interesting song — especially the vocals by Zoe Manville and Mary Elizabeth Winstead. This song takes on all the lies and propaganda coming out in the new, polluted environment. A year later, it's only worse.
9. Silence — Marshmello feat. Khalid
Khalid boasts so much soul for a singer so young. Add in Marshmello's signature drops, and this is a killer track.
10. The System Only Dreams In Total Darkness — The National
The National: dad rock at its finest.
11. Good Woman — Jade Bird
Rock on, Jade Bird!
12. Hard to Say Goodbye — Washed Out
The perfect song to simultaneously groove out on and also tap into your inner ennui.
More tomorrow!
