Best of 2009



I'm late, but I wanted to go ahead and post favorites albums / songs of 2010.

I think 2009 was a good year for music, but then again, I think there is great music made and released every single year, you just have to be open to it. As far as lists go...they're completely subjective, everyone has favorites and mine is no better (or worse) than anyone else's. So here they are in no particular order, but where I thought they fit best in a mix-a-lot form.

Oh, yes Happy 9 days in for 2010. (No big deal, but that totally rhymed).

Looking forward to an amazing year of life along with beautiful music and all other things inbetween.

Good good stuff. I'd say about 85% of the material is stuff I've danced to, drank to, taken my clothes off to, wondered if i'd ever fall in love again to, sang along to, killed many many many brain cells to, wished I wrote the song to, taken credit for opening the Bare to, etc.

2009 was a good year in music. The King of Pop might've died, but the music being created hasn't been negatively affected by it at all.

You may be onto something with W-A-C-M. I really dig this tune.
