In celebration of its 10th anniversary, NPR Music has looked back over its first decade, year by year, with a list that highlights the moments that still stand out to those of us who make the site. Though we started NPR Music at a time when technology was rapidly changing how music was bought, sold, carried, listened to and understood, we’ve kept our eyes on what matters: the way a great song can link old friends and make new connections. And plenty of music from the last decade has stuck with us.
Included in our highly personal, not-at-all comprehensive list of the essential moments of the last 10 years are songs, albums, trends and events like:
The very first Tiny Desk Concert
Radiohead’s pay-what-you-want album In Rainbows
The deaths of Prince, David Bowie, George Jones, Luciano Pavarotti and more
Paradigm-changing albums released by Adele and Beyoncé
Technological innovations that put hundreds of cameras in every concert audience and brought about the end of record collecting
The former national security adviser is becoming a central figure in the special counsel's probe of Russian election interference and any possible connections between Russia and the Trump campaign.
