Top Twenty Two of 2007

I meant to do this at the end of 2007, or at least within the first few days of 2008, but I've been busy and I got sick, so it's belated, but still valid. Here, in no particular order, are my twenty two favorite songs of 2007.

Why twenty two? Solely because I'm a big fan of alliteration. Why no particular order? Because I'm way too lazy/busy to argue with myself over which ones I like more - they're all awesome.

Oh, and check it - I even put together a nifty little playlist for you, so you can't be all "Oh man, that's a great list, but I'm way too lazy to go hunt down the songs on my own to listen to them." Now you have no excuses!



1. Silversun Pickups - Lazy Eye
2. Peter, Bjorn & John - Young Folks
3. The Shins - Phantom Limb
4. Arcade Fire - Intervention
5. Modest Mouse - Dashboard
6. Blonde Redhead - Spring and by Summer Fall

This video is too awesome to not include with the song list.

Note: The people that know me well are probably confused that they reached 22 without a mention of John Mayer, but he didn't release anything in 2007, so nothing counts! Actually, that's not true, he released an acoustic EP of songs off his full length album, which I really like, but my favorite songs on the EP don't trump my favorite other songs of 2007 - plus, I couldn't find the acoustic versions for my playlist, so out they went.
