Album of the Year 2018 Update

Hope you're enjoying this week's feature album from Trophy Eyes, Triple J featured the record last week and you can see their fantastic feature HERE.

In the meantime Boxing Day 2018 is just around the corner. Well maybe Labor Day long weekend, Halloween, another round of school holidays, Trump's impeachment will come first but hey, let's check out where the three nominated records are now.

First up Amy Shark. So currently Amy is all loved up and getting heaps of radio play. At a brief YouTube search the song is already attracting some cover versions. Well done Amy. In other Shark related news I Said Hi is honestly still one of the biggest songs for 2018, will it reach number one in my annual top 200 songs of the year poll? Time will tell, I will post that, January 1st, 2019.

Next up, his dance has the world almost dying with excitement and Kiki's all around the world are now famous, Drake's Scorpion record is a monster. I would say this is way bigger than More Life and getting so much love. Nonstop is still one of my favourite jams but In My Feelings, well it's huge, it's maybe Drake's biggest worldwide hit since One Dance.

Now to Mr Joy, Vance Joy has enjoyed a massive spike in radio play with his new singe One of These Days. Were Coming Home (Like Shark's I Said Hi) is also one of 2018's biggest local (and international for that matter) tracks. His album continues to chart well and the track is full to the brim of catchy pop songs.

Who will take out the 2018 Album of the Year? Time will tell....
