So, 2005 is nearly over and, assuming that there will not be some surprise release in the next day, I have a pretty good sense at this point of what my favorite songs of the year are. Here’s a quick list:
- Draw Us Lines, by the Constantines
- The Music Next Door, by the Lucksmiths
- Reunion, by Stars
- My Doorbell, by the White Stripes
- Shine a Light, by Wolf Parade
- This Year, by the Mountain Goats
- Entertain, by Sleater-Kinney
- What A Wonderful Man, by My Morning Jacket
- Your Little Hoodrat Friend, by the Hold Steady
- Let the Cool Goddess Rust Away, by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
- Sing Me Spanish Techno, by the New Pornographers
- Concerning the UFO Sighting Near Highland, Il, by Sufjan Stevens
- The Bleeding Heart Show, by the New Pornographers
- Soon Enough, by the Constantines
- Eli, the Barrow Boy, by the Decemberists
- The Skin of My Yellow Country Teeth, by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
- The Earthquake of 73, by the Fruit Bats
- Banging Camp, by the Hold Steady
And of course, this should by no means be considered an exhaustive list…
