Top 100 Songs of 2012

The year 2012 was the year I was very obsessed with the indie rock albums of fun. and Foster The People. Expect all tracks from “Some Nights” and “Torches” in the list.

Another artist that I became a follower of that year was Adele Adkins. From releasing her live video album ‘Live At The Royal Albert Hall,’ to winning big in the GRAMMYs, to being the first female solo act to place 3 songs in the top 10 of Billboard Hot 100 concurrently, the English singer-songwriter was indeed the Artist of the Years 2011 to 2012. Expect some tracks from her as well.

Top 100 Songs of 2011

The time we listen to the Top 100 Songs of the year 2021 is here! But before that, I’ll take you back to 2016, 2011, 2006, and 2001. (Oh, and see also previous songs of the year here: 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, 2019, and 2020)

All I heard back in the year 2011 was “Nothing”! (pun intended) It was around that summer when I went to AstroVision (probably one of the last visits I had to a record store). They played the full Script’s sophomore album that made me a fan of the band.

I cannot believe it was already a decade ago. I remembered back in freshman college: “For The First Time,“ “Nothing,“ “If You Ever Come Back,“ and the album title track “Science And Faith” were always played in our drawing laboratory class.
