I always wanted to make a best list and see if I actually had the patience and motivation to do one. It never came but now since I have this blog I finally stopped being lazy and tried to put some form of list together. I didn’t start my blog until late July and didn’t realize I would need to track my songs. I didn’t do it by play count since I usually tend to overplay songs when they first come out, before concerts, with friends etc. If I based it on play count it would basically be Vampire Weekend, MGMT, Cut Copy, and The Last Shadow Puppets…That is not 2008. I limited the list to top 50. I felt some songs were quite excellent but just fell short of making the top 50. Here are songs that didn’t make it but deserve a mention.

Honorable Mentions (not in any particular order):

[mp3] : Born Ruffians – Barnacle Goose
