Song of the year 009

[Careface]

Hi, music thread! Strictly 2009 songs.

Just wondering what your favourite 2 or 3 or 4 songs are from this year, after a healthy debate at work where I pretty much shouted at everyone for liking Susan Boyle thought I'd bring it up here.

And yeah I just expect 2-3 people to post in here, but I'm making a thread anyway. (Plus Gink can catch up on some music he's missed while being away )

Mine are (in no particular order)


Animal collective - Summertime clothes (was going to pick brother sport but not on youtube). Merriweather Post Pavilion by these is my album of the year, I've decided.

The Antlers - Epilogue. Its perfect. Closes the albums so fucking well.

Is that the one you kept threatening to play on vent?

 

[Mista]

Wilco, one of the greatest american bands of the last two decades and they did it again with their latest album.
The whole thing is rock solid, but the song also called "wilco" is prolly my favourite.
sadly no video, just the tune.

 

[Tyche]

Is that the one you kept threatening to play on vent?

I really liked Grizzly Bear

For a bit of variety I'll do my indie hip hop list!

Everyones favourite blind albino rapper, puts a smile on my lips every time I hear it
Brother Ali - Us

Keeping the Old School alive!
People Under The Stairs - Carried Away
[youtube:13cyst72]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_s6otv5meA[/youtube:13cyst72]

Most interesting album of the year goes to E&A. Really hard to pick a track tho, it's more the album as a whole is awesome/interesting.
Eyedea & Abilites - Spin Cycle
[youtube:13cyst72]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVR17FPNv9I[/youtube:13cyst72]

And to add something Swedish I'll give you this track. It was actually released in december '08 in Sweden. But since I didnt hear it until this year I'll ignore that and point to the US release date of '09!
Movits - Fel Del Av Gården

Brother Ali sounds like Ice Cube.
And I've been working constantly with swedes for the last 2 years, I actually understand the lyrics in the last song Oo

 

[Gink]

It's actually from 2008, but I heard it for the first time in 2009, and it's the coolest tune I've heard for the first time in 2009 (that I can think of right now), so screw you and your rules.
