My Top 100 2010s Albums

[Ryusei 59,929]

Welcome to the list of my top 100 albums released in this decade. This list’s ranking was determined by my personal enjoyment only, I’m not claiming “These are the best albums released in those years”

To further give a personal touch to this list, I listed my 3 favorite songs of each album in tracklist order. (At least I tried... some were incredibly hard to choose only 3 from  ) I also added the cover.

Albums with a * are not available on streaming services

Welp, I can't say that I agree with your list, (to begin with because I don't care about Japanes or Korean music and it's half of it ) but I loved seeing some things like Born To Die on the top 10 or the fact you gave the attention that "Your Type" deserves. I wished that Joanne and ARTPOP were higher  well, this is your list based on your cryteria therefore I should say I would rank them a lot higher.

But hey I loved reading the list

[Ryusei 59,929]

On a general note: I'm sorry if this takes a while to load but once it works it works, also the spoilers help with that it's not to build suspense  

[GaGaAst 12,852]

It's taking too much time to load. Nevertheless finished it but more than half are k pop and Japanese. 

I liked your no 1 because one of my favourite albums ever.
