Listening To This Week Playlist 19 January

  


We are obviously celebrating the past, being half way through our Top 100 albums of 2025. So let's go 2026 until tonight's continuation with a corking 28 songs on this week's LTTW playlist. I made the bold assumption that last week's playlist was one of the best ever.

Well this is at least its equal. The last as great as the first and it opens with the opening single from an upcoming album that may be the best thing that you will hear this year You know the drill. Returning favourites and new to us and you that provides a heady mix of musical delight.

The weekly playlist is largely for submissions, not just the usual stuff that we dig out ourselves. The song order is not about song preference, but how the playlist flows.  All embeds open in new windows to aid scrolling. Links to the artists will also appear on I Don't Hear A Single Social Media sites over the next 24 hours. This will help you to discover more about the artists who appear here.

I Don't Hear A Single Best 100 Albums Of 2025 : 61- 70


 

Today we reach Numbers 61-70 in our Best Albums Of 2025. It has been really pleasing to see followers visit the albums thus far. 2025 was a great year for the type of music we cover and it is very competitive for the remaining 60 albums in the countdown.

With it being our 10th year we thought that we could back to the old images that were posted as a bit of fun with the Audio Extravaganzas. A reminder of the old, much quieter, days for us and hopefully a bit of fun for newcomers.
