Tracks of the Year 2017

Over the past twelve months Spotify informs me that I have listened to over 7000 songs.  I have selected 240 tracks on my monthly playlists and now is time for the cull.  It's a Darwinian survival of the fittest to arrive with the annual top 40.  In keeping with the Top 40 Chart Countdowns of old I am reversing the order and saving the best until last.  My only essential criteria being a 2017 release date and being awesome.
