For instance, I don't remember "Teenage Dream" or "Only Girl (In The World)" being ranked high on any year-end list by them, yet they ranked high on the "so far, decade" thing.
I don't know why people take them so seriously. But it's mainly an Internet forum thing, based on my observation.

They gave The Elusive Chanteuse a 7.7
I mean, the album is great but the sudden praise 20+ years into her career does not seem genuine to me.
