Welcome to WALLEY'S BEST OF 2014. This is my first year doing this on ATRL and hope everyone enjoys the choices I've made. I consider my taste in music to be broad, so this collection won't be limited to mainstream music, but will definitely include standout commercial albums and tracks.
I have compiled three lists: TOP 30 TRACKS, TOP 20 ALBUMS, & 10 WORST SONGS. I will reveal the collections in sequences, starting with the Tracks. The Worst list will be a bonus and will be revealed all at once after everything else is revealed.
 ELIGIBILITY:
TRACKS to be considered must have either been released as a single between December 31, 2013 and December 15th, 2014, or have been included on an album released during the same period. This means that songs included on albums released prior to 12/31/13 may be included as long as they were singles during the eligibility period.
ALBUMS to be considered must have been officially released between January 1st, 2014 and December 15th, 2014.

I wanted to do more but I don't really have the time and I want to keep the list focused. With too many songs/albums I wouldn't be able to judge them closely enough to choose their deserved position on the list.

I think I have a shirt with that print. 
How to Dress Well, yass!!! I hate PND but my brother plays this song far too often that I've really gotten into it, plus I can't say no to Drake.
