To say I'm out of touch with a lot of modern music is an understatement. I've only heard of 4 of those songs. Majotiry of artists on that list I've never even heard of. I MUST be getting old.

lol

I'm guessing I'm a lot younger than you (:whistle:), but same for me as well. I'm not really into music of nowadays, apart from the odd song, so I couldn't tell you what any of those songs went like.

Never heard of 95 %of them. lol

Safe to say modern music isn't my thing.

No, it's Australian music - a lot of their stuff never makes it past the Barrier Reef. They also seem to listen to a lot more stuff that over here would be considered "alternative".

I know none of those songs :( I only know a couple of those bands!

Mumford and Sons, Kanye West, Muse, Arctic Monkeys, Florence and the Machine, Calvin Harris, M.I.A should have heard of at least. Jack White, Lana Del Rey, Two Door Cinema Club, Gaslight Anthem, Everything Everything, Black Keys, Frank Ocean, Ben Folds Five, The Temper Trap, Django Django, Skrillex, The XX and Bat For Lashes should be familiar to anyone with more than a passing interest in music.

I recognise quite a few others too, but probably about 20-30 I've never heard of there.

I would assume (oops) that some maybe Aussie bands who haven't had success outside of aussie land.

Was basically what I said 2 quotes earlier.

I turn 33 in April. I tend to stick to what i know. But I use Lastfm a lot and that gives me recommendations of similar musicians. I mainly like my rock and metal stuff but do like other genres too. Not a fan at all of hip hop/rap or what is classed as modern R&B.

Not the best year, i hate the #1 song. Also don't think any of the 10 songs i voted for made the top 100 which makes it annoying. But saying the i would of seen about 15 of those bands bands live this year.

Who'd you vote for?

2 Frank Ocean songs and not Pyramid? Ridic.

Also any 'Top' list with M*se in it is automatically tainted

Only voted for 10 but can't remember which of the below 12 I voted for. Think my shortlist was about 100 songs. Muse does down grade it but when you have 1.5mil votes there is bound to be some flogs with poor music taste.

Mystery Jets, Foals, Yesyou, Strange Talk, The Maccabees, Jinja Safari, Art of Sleeping, Jarkarta Criers. Miike Snow, Cast of Cheers, Reptar and Rufus.
