Favorite Releases Discussion 2019 (Includes the 4th Quarter, the Full Year, and the Decade!)

[u/alleybetwixt]

Welcome to the 2nd curated favorite releases post!

These discussions happen on a quarterly basis every year to give the community a chance to gush over their favorite recent releases.

You are free to discuss your favorite songs, albums, music videos, and performances from the previous three months or since the start of the calendar year. Your choice! You can list, link, discuss, and generally celebrate the releases you've loved the most however you wish, just don't be mean about anyone else's taste! We highly recommend listing your Top 10 for 2019 at least!

Since this is the end of the year and the end of the decade, you are welcome to go all out and discuss your favorites from all of the 2010s as well!

Many like to make special year-end playlists, blog posts, or other media that cover these things. Usually we wouldn’t allow straight-up links like these as self-promotion, but we will make an exception for this post. Feel free to link out to where you may have already written elaborate posts or made YouTube vlogs or podcasts, but please also add your general thoughts here rather than just dropping links on us!

Keep in mind that Reddit might automatically remove any comment with a link it doesn't like (like shortened urls), so that could mean your comment won't show until a mod manually approves it.

So, r/kpop, what have you loved?

Although during the course of the year, I felt most of the songs were lacklustre, looking back its a very SOLID year for kpop (musically). Standout months would be March, May, October and November. Most albums this year were also amazing, with Golden Child's "REBOOT" being one of my absolute favourite kpop albums of all time.

Also loving the resurgence of club beats and psytrance into kpop: e.g Silent night, Side effects, Sunset, Badster - Hyo

Overall, really good year, and hope that 2020 builds on this foundation!

[u/delusionalzodiacguy]

Okay so first of all I’m really appreciative of this year for finally helping me expand my KPop tastes to a couple of boy groups. I’m a full on girl group Stan but I’m slowly starting to open up my ears to great male acts.

However I don’t listen to enough boy groups to truly make lists for them. But shoutout to EXO and GOT7 for making me a new fan! Also special shoutout to Chen and Jinyoung my biases for those groups.

Top Songs in my opinion for 2019:

1. Fancy - Twice

2. Psycho - Red Velvet

3. Gotta Go - Chung Ha

4. Zimzalabim - Red Velvet

5. Icy - Itzy

6. Adios - Everglow

7. Violeta - IZ*ONE

9. As You Wish - WJSN

10. Fever - GFriend

Best B sides in no particular order:

15. I Wanna Be - Key

Special Mention: Come On and No One Else by GOT7, both came out in 2018 but stayed in my top 5 for the entire year.

[u/Kivipallur]

I started listening to K-POP in 2019 summer. Keep in mind that songs get really boring for me really fast. Because If I find a song I only listen to that nonstop (thats why KTL isnt here). So If you see a song in this list that is older than 3months it means I really really like that.

So here are my favorite songs at the moment:

1. BLACKPINK - Really ┃ honestly 0 idea why i like this song that much but I always find myself listening to this

2. EVERGLOW - Adios ┃ best drop in kpop ever.

3. BLACKPINK - Kick it ┃can I kick iiiit

4. MAMAMOO - HIP ┃Bestt vocals in the game + moonbyuls rap

5. BLACKPINK - DDU DU DDU DU ┃jennies rap part

6. TWICE - Feel special ┃ josh gfs line feel speciarrrr

7. ITZY - Icy ┃ summer favorite, also it was one of the first songs that came out when I started listening

8. SUNMI - Gashina ┃just found this song and cant stop listening to it

9. Momoland - Thumbs up ┃Its a bop, actually like this more than baam, as good as Bboom bboom and Im so hot
