#20 How To Dress Well - "Repeat Pleasure"

Welcome to the Top 20!!!! You are about to hear the best 20 songs that came out in 2014. A few things, first all 20 of these songs are awesome.  They all reached at least the top 5 in my weekly Top 100s, 12 of them reaching number 1.  This is also the first time since 2008 that the Top 20 was made up of 20 different artists. We also have 12 artists who are new to the year end Top 20.

With that, I give you one of those 12 artists with Chicago's Tom Krell, aka How To Dress Well. Singer/songwriter ambient electronic r&B aficionado has been popular in the indie world since 2009 but has not fared well on my lists. His 2014 LP "What Is This Heart" though is a real gem. 

How to Dress Well has placed 3 songs in the Top 500 and gets this one all the way up to Number 20! Also noteworthy, Rolling Stone magazine completely agrees with me that this is the number 20 song of 2014.
