Songs in the key of 2001

<p>A few episodes back we had an episode about albums released in the year David Hepworth considers to be the <em>annus mirabilis</em> of music: 1971.</p><p><br></p><p>That, coincidentally, was the year in which the music journalist turned 21. So it got me thinking: might the music released in the year <em>I</em> turned 21 be significant enough to put together an argument that actually 2001 was the best year for music ever?</p><p><br></p><p>Listen to the podcast and you can judge for yourself.</p><p><br></p><p>Once you're done listening to this, head over to <a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5ekWCFYdG2x5Zx9hlUWx79?si=420a7a98b3d643d3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a> to hear the songs in full.</p>
