Can you believe that list?! 2007 blew my mind right out of my skull!

This song has popped up in three different "Genius" playlists on my ipod this week. I think it's trying to tell me something... Well, Johnny's ipod... I got the message. You rock as much as 2007 did... Andrew Bird - Skin Is, My

P.S. The link to the song is for a live version, but it's still amazing.

Top 15 Albums of 2006

I think the world needs to know what albums I feel were the best releases in 2006. Later I will post 2007 and 2008, but we should start small. I've ordered them alphebetically because it was too difficult to order them in any other fashion.

1. Black Holes & Revelations, by Muse

2. The Crane Wife, by The Decemberists

3. Dog Problems, by The Format

4. Dying To Say This To You, by The Sounds

5. The Eraser, by Thom Yorke

6. Everything All The Time, by Band of Horses

7. First Impressions Of Earth, by The Strokes

8. A Lesson In Crime, by Tokyo Police Club

9. Light Grenades, by Incubus

10. Nighttiming, by Coconut Records

11. Sam's Town, by The Killers

12. Stadium Arcadium, by The Red Hot Chili Peppers

13. Stranger Than Fiction, Original Soundtrack

14. Under The Iron Sea, by Keane

15. We, The Vehicles, by Maritime

It's possible that I've forgotten some essential 2006 albums, but I think this is a pretty solid list. Feel free to leave your thoughts, suggestions, or complaints.

Music in 2006 was great and all, but you really need to check out this tune from 2009. You won't regret it!

Phoenix - Lisztomania
