It’s that time of year again! Now that there’s been enough time for songs to settle, I’m ready for another Bias List Legendary Songs Inauguration Ceremony.
I inaugurated a ton of songs last year (maybe too many?), so this year’s ceremony is far smaller and only covers songs released in 2024. As usual, only material released since The Bias List‘s inception (Jan 1st, 2016) is eligible for this feature. Songs released earlier than that are periodically featured as special reviews.
As you know by now, I hardly ever award a 10-out-of-10 rating on release day because I believe songs need time to reach that lofty honor. Sometimes it takes months. Sometimes it takes years. Sometimes the ascent is rather quick (moving from a 9.25 to a 10, for example) and other times a song takes steady hold and gradually makes its way to the top. We’ve got a couple of those this year.
With that in mind, let’s celebrate these amazing songs and hope that more are soon on their way!
