1. If you check an artist you'll see their best songs and best albums. However songs don't have a chart but can be rated.
2. Some people don't just into a album, sometimes they listen to a few songs to test the waters. Which ones are the best? I know! Let's check some charts!
One would argue that the ratings on the songs are clearly the best that the artist has to offer, I say 99% of those songs are the singles and not the side tracks. Speaking of...
3. It would expose the newcomer to the other sides of the band. One thing that goes unnoticed with most listeners are the side-tracks. And there are some amazing side-tracks too! Electioneering-Radiohead, Lounge Act-Nirvana, Righteous and the wicket- Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Frankley, Mr Shankley-The Smiths. Just to name a few.
I'm actually surprised this isn't a thing on the site, songs are what make an album right? Boo hoo!

Yeah I used to support this idea. But no more. This is just not what music feels like anymore. You get the whole feeling of an album. You may like a few songs of the album and skip the others during your listen, but those tracks give you a specific mood, a specific atmosphere, a specific World. Looking and making charts for tracks is like judging and ranking Chapters of Books and not the whole book. The Best and most amusing chapter has a meaning when the others are there. And It has no meaning without the other chapters, no matter how bad they are.

New chart types of chart. A common request was for song charts, but artist and collaborative charts were also mentioned.

This site has the best layout as to categorise your favourite music. It makes sense to expand it to include artists and songs.

bestevermusic.com

?

I kind of wish they had a bestevermovies...bestevergames. Same template, different colours

I use Letterboxd for movies and typically don't play games, but it would be cool to have a site like those that is largely Chart based.
