Top Tunes 2009!

[wendy]

Its that time of year again...so what were everyone's top 10 tunes of 2009? and what was the ultimate gig you have been to this year?

Unfortunately my music taste has gone sideways since i've started exercising a lot so unless its got a thumping baseline its off the radar but hey that is life and i'm sure i'll be back on track once another Texas album hits the shelves

in no particular order...

1. Simian Mobile Disco – Audacity of Huge
2. Simian Mobile Disco - Hustler
3. Gossip – Heavy Cross
4. Ian Carey Project - Get Shaky
5. Prodigy – Warriors Dance
6. Kasabian – Fire
7. Prodigy – Invaders must die
8. Kings of Leon – Be Somebody
9. Ian Brown – Illegal attacks
10. Black Eyed Peas – I Gotta Feeling

and the best gig was probably Kasabian although this year has been a pretty gigtastic time... looking forward to catching up with you all in 2010 x

This is something I really don't manage to do ... cause I always remember the songs from the end of the year ... but for sure .. there would be :

- Pink : So what
- Kings of Leon
- Lily Allen - * you
- Paramore : Decode
- Mylene Farmer (sorry ... french singer )
- Jason Mraz ft Colbie Caillat : Lucky
- Little Boots - Remedy

I don't say that these songs are the best ... these are some of the songs that were special for me during this year.
I must miss some for sure ...

And the best gig ... without any doubt this time ... P!NK ! That's why I decided to see her again and again and again

I'm a little bit late with this posting
I'm obviously working too hard! Anyway 2009

In no particular order (sorry I really can't stick to just 10 - that's impossible)

Jim White - Bluebird
Wanda Jackson - Fujiyama Mama
Joan Baez - Diamonds and Rust
Muse - The Resistance
Elkie Brooks - Don't Cry Out Loud (sung v loudly in car on the way to work )
Imelda May - Meet You At The Moon
Georgie Fame - Getaway
Ella Fitzgerald - It's only a Paper Moon
Jolie Holland - Old Fashioned Morphine
Melanie Safka - Ruby Tuesday *possibly the finest cover of Ruby Tuesday you'll ever hear
Tift Merrit - Another Country
Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars (sung v loudly in car on the way to work)
Brandi Carlile - The Story (sung v loudly in car on the way to work)
The Statler Brothers - Flowers On The Wall (sung v loudly in car on the way home from work)
Rufus Thomas - Carry Me Back To Old Virginny

Bit of a mixed bag there (mostly oldies).

Best gig..... awww that's even harder... mmmm ...but probably a close call between Jools Holland and Wanda Jackson and of course not forgetting Sharleen in Feb!

Am late too, Chez, don't worry: you won't be the last!

Let me think...

1) Pink - Bad Influence
2) The Gossip - Heavy Cross
3) Lily Allen - The Fear
4) Paolo Nutini - Pencil Full Of Lead
5) Pink - So What
6) Dolores O'Riordan - The Journey
7) Pink - Funhouse
8) Röyksopp Ft Robyn - The Girl And The Robot
9) Paolo Nutini - Candy
10) Lily Allen - 22

Quite frankly, I think 2009 was a bit dull, apart from four or five artists.
