Top 50 Music Albums of 2012 by Applerill

« View previous chartView next chart »
This year has been wonderful for pop,
Metal, jazz, and especially hip hop.
Every one of these records I really like,
At least there's a bit of psyche.

I gave 5 stars to the whole top eight,
I guess it's like Myspace, but actually great.

Many of the albums are free for download legally,
Copy-paste the link, and get it if you please.

Now, to tell you what from this year you should never, ever shelve,
I present to you the top 40 albums of 2012.
