Top 3 songs of the year

[Spencer]

In order, #1 being your favorite. Doesn't have to be a song released this year, just one you havent heard until this year. No runners up or "this almost made the list"'s.

1) Atreyu - The Remeberence Ballad - This entire album (The Curse) fills me with that inspired rage and anger that makes you remember what good emotional music is like. This song is probably the most powerful to me, and it helps to motivate me and my new direction in life. It's not for everyone, but it's certainly for me.

2) Modest Mouse - Bukowski - Lyrical Genius. Pure and and Simple.

3) The Decemberists - The Bachelor and The Bride - "No, I, I will box your ears, and take your tears, and leave you, leave you here...stripped bare."

1) Big D and the Kids Table - LAX (Its always fun to listen to a 4 minute tirade about how much LA sucks. And seeing this song performed live anywhere on the East Coast is like a religious experience. "we're built up from nothing")
2)Mannequin - Oh Well (So catchy and so rocking at the same time. Its like the perfect kind of music for me.)
3) Pig Destroyer - Pretty in Casts (It summed up a lot of my feelings about love and need that I had floating around. "maybe she'll snap her wrists doing cartwheels or her ankle dancing drunken at some rave maybe she'll go through a windshield and have twinkling bits of glass stuck in her face she's so pretty in her casts damaged so perfectly she's so pretty in her casts the prettiest thing I've ever seen I only get to hold her when she's injured I only get to kiss her where she's sore")

1) The Postal Service - Such Great Hights
One of those songs I just cant stop listening to, over and over. The lyrics both inspire me and helps my mood (which is needed quite bad at the moment). Get number one since its the one that has the biggest effect on me right now.

2)José Gonzàlez - Love Will Tear Us Apart
Think most of you know of this song in its original form by Joy Division. I acctaully heard the cover first and fell in love with it. Simple version of it that I can help singing along to. If you can find this one give it a try!

3)I am Kloot - Proof
Another song that works like number one. Nr 2 mood improver right now (and will be for quite a while I think).

And I want to add another song so bad. SO bad but I will try to follow the restrictions even how much it hurts
