2016, in general, wasn’t a year for music, for me. For some reason, I have had a very few times of
immersing and drowning myself towards it, as I had to deal with some other things. But then, I think I was still able to squeeze out
some of the best juices out of the best releases for this year.
1. Alessandra de Rossi – Saan Man
2. Bayang Barrios, Cookie Chua & The Benjamins – Tinatangi. Basically, a very good track down the drain. I seriously do not understand how this track failed to notch the top spot on PhilPoop.

3. Panic!
At The Disco – Death of a Bachelor. A single about singleness.
4.
Lumineers – Cleopatra. Another reminder to all you dear ones, to always follow your heart's desires. Because you'll never know..
5. Adele – All I Ask. Gahd, Adele never fails..
6.
Mumford and Sons, Baaba Maal, The Very Best – There Will Be Time. There will be time.
7.
Hozier – Cherry Wine. Because Hozier always sings with social relevance.
9. TheJuans – Binibini sa MRT. I once tried to expound on this.. but
10. Sud– Sila. Loved this track since that Magpakailanman rape episode which featured Mark Herras and Thea Tolentino.
11.
Ebe Dancel - Bawat Daan. UPLB, ang dulo, gitna at simula.
13. Ang
Bandang Shirley – Umaapaw
14.
Barbie Almalbis – Ambon
15. Julianne
Tarroja – Minahal Kita
16.
