47 Albums That Made 2019 Seem Almost Bearable

"Eilish's debut album is a manifestation of her musical aplomb, which is clear from its widespread acclaim and ascent to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. From 'Bad Guy' to 'You Should See Me in a Crown' to 'Bury a Friend,' the singer stands firm in her maverick caliber, disinterested by conformity. And that's precisely why When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? resonates with so many people, myself included — we're giving limitations and normalities an emphatic middle finger." — Brea Cubit, celebrity and entertainment assistant editor
