My Favorite Songs of 2011

December 18, 2011 at 10:26 pm

Here are some of my favorite songs of the year. I decided to just pick ten and put them in alphabetical order. There was far too much great music this year to try and pick one song for the entire year. However, with that having been said, here are ten of my favorites (plus an honorable mention not in alphabetical order):

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Honorable Mention) David Ramirez: “Fires”


Adele: “Rolling In The Deep”


Alabama Shakes: “Hold On”

(By the way, if I had to pick a favorite song of the year, which I don’t), this would probably be it. Definitely a band to watch in 2012:


Chris Bathgate: “Big Ghost”


Bon Iver: “Holocene”


Cass McCombs: “County Line”


m83: “Midnight City”


Josh T. Pearson: “Country Dumb”


Seryn: “So Within”


Shabazz Palaces: “Swerve . . . the reeping of all that is worthwhile (Noir notwithstanding)


Shabazz Palaces – Swerve… by subpop

tUnE-yArDs: “Bizness”
