2009 Singles of the Year

Top Singles of the Year

This is my favorite time of the year when all of the best of lists are bandied about. Of course, musical taste, or lack thereof, being subjective, it is interesting to me to see what others think of as good and/or bad. It also never fails to intrigue me how so much of the same music can appear on so many different lists. With that said, here is my list of my favorite tracks from the past year. I don't put together a finite list, I just kept listing them until I could list them no longer. Last year I typed up a little blurb about each single, however, due to time constraints, I have not done so this year, though it is quite possible I will get bored at some point over the holiday and revisit the list. So check back. I have included a video clip of each song though!
