Well, it seems the thread didn't go far. I thought, well maybe I'd rank the number of mentions that all the songs here got and see at least what some of more common favorites are, but I guess I've decided not to bother.

But at the very least, I'm pleased to say that I found a couple of new songs for me that I like, which makes this all worthwhile:

Man, 2014 was awful
1.

19. The War on Drugs - Red Eyes (2014)
20. Spoon - Do You (2014)

2014 may have been an awful year for you, Teemu, but those 2 songs you listed I do like. Especially like the first, and from that I found:
The War on Drugs - "Under the Pressure",
which I like even more.

Thanks, Teemu.

And bedamned, The War on Drugs - "Under the Pressure" enters my top-20. I love this song. Another thanks goes out to Teemu, though I know he listed the other song I like by this band.

Haven't decided yet exactly what spot I'm putting it into, but likely somewhere between 6 and 15.

Makes this thread totally worth it.

And doesn't the lead singer's voice have a sort of remote resemblance to a much younger Bob Dylan? I mean, if anyone can possibly sound like Bob Dylan.
