I relate to this listening patterns issue, mainly the waiting to long to get around to listen to something new I got. This applies to other things for me too.

A decade is a nice stretch of time, but my problem with these lists (a year, a month) is not just recency bias but just not knowing when anything came out anymore compared to when I've been listening to it.
