now that the Listerine has cleared, I'd like to offer these, which are some of my fave trax I heard this year, but didn't all get properly 'released' during our ticking off of the latest 365-ish on Christian calendar:
 
 Bran Van 3000 'Drinking in LA'
 Gruff Rhys 'Gwin Mi Wn'
 The Magic Numbers 'Love Me Like You'
 Steve Earle 'Home to Houston'
 Prayers and Tears of Arthur Digby Sellers 'Concerning Lessons           Learned From the Aliens'
 Lou Barlow 'Ballad of Daykitty'
 Amadou Et Mariam 'C'est La Vie'
 Dirtbombs 'Kings Lead Hat'
 Sam Prekop 'Chicago People'

i was very into...
 
 "Girl" and "Go It Alone" by Beck
 "Catch My Disease" by Ben Lee
 "She's Hearing Voices," "Positive Tension," and "Helicopter" by Bloc Party
 "Low" and "Swallowed in the Sea" by Coldplay
 "Black and White Town" by Doves (this song really gets me pumped!)
 "Eleanor Put Your Boots Back On" by Franz (my favorite song on the album...)
 "Na Na Na Na Naa" by The Kaiser Chiefs
 "What I Say and What I Mean" by The Like
 "Pull Up The People," "Bucky Done Gun," "Fire, Fire," "Banana (Skit)," by M.I.A. (and of course, really, this whole album)
 "Helena" by Nickel Creek
 
 
 and i'm really too lazy to go through the rest of my itunes...

According to iTunes on my work computer, for me it�??s:
 
 100 Degrees �?? Shout Out Louds
 Tribulations �?? LCD Soundsystem
 Jerk it Out �?? Caesars
 Honeymoon Song �?? Banjo/Sullivan
 Let the Cool Goddess Rust Away �?? CYHSY
 The Coasts is Always Changing �?? Maximo Park
 Hollaback Girl �?? Gwen Stefani
 Fix You �?? Coldplay (live on SNL)
 E-Pro �?? Beck
 Captain Kelly�??s Kitchen - The Dropkick Murphy�??s
 Crooked Teeth �?? DCFC
 The Answer �?? Bloc Party
 Hide and Seek �?? Imogen Heap
 Unconditional �?? The Bravery
 Since You Been Gone �?? Kelly Clarkson
 Road to Joy �?? Bright Eyes
 Jumpers �?? Sleater-Kinney
 Total Eclipse of the Heart �?? The Dan Band
 Feel Good Inc. - Gorillaz
 Requiem of OMM2 �?? Of Montreal
 I hate the Way You love �?? The Kills
 The Way We Get By �?? Spoon
 
 Of course this is a skewed list because the longer the album is out the better chance a song has of making the top 25.
 
 I�??d imagine my home computer would be very different, because #1 at home is �??Song for Dennis Brown�?� by the Mountain Goats, but I don�??t have that CD on my office machine.  Same for Hard-Fi and �??The Infanta�?� by The Decemberists.  And Sony prevented anything from The Dead 60�??s from appearing on either of my lists.

I suggest Mountain Goats fans buy the dilaudid ep off of Itunes, or at least the collapsing stars track, may well be my favorite song of the year.

That would be a good thread. Post your top 25 most played songs on your itunes...
 
 forgive me if its been done already.
