Because something utterly shite *cough* Westlife *cough* will undoubtedly win the "official" Record of The Year vote, what have your top singles of the year been?

Mine, as usual is a mixed bag.

1) The Killers - Somebody Told Me
2)Coldplay - Speed of Sound
3)Moby - Lift Me Up
4)Uniting Nations - You & Me
5)Mariah Carey - We Belong Together (never thought I'd be saying that a year ago)

    Juicebox is a wicked tune.

    Also - I hate James Blunt. He makes me want to hurt him.

    There was a good joke on Never Mind The Buzzcocks from Mark Lamarr the other night

    it went something along the lines of this

    "James Blunt is a one hit wonder; in that, I wonder if one hit will knock him out"

    1. Seth Lakeman - Kitty Jay
    2. The Arcade Fire - Rebellion (Lies)
    3. Bodyrockers - I like the way you move
    4. Seth Lakeman - The Bold Knight
    5. Kaiser Chiefs - Every Day I love you less and less

    My dream for the year is putting James Blunt and Antony and the Johnsons in a big rocket, and detonating it up Tony Blair's arse.

    Umm. that's about all I can remember without repeating songs by the same bands. I've been a little disconnected from concurrent culture since I've been out here.

    Good choice. Although he did fuck it up by putting drums, bass, piano on the single version. The LP version is much better.

    1. Juicebox - Strokes
    2. Albion - Babyshambles
    3. Somewhere Else - Razorlight (although the B-side is much better)
    4. That single by Arcade Fire
    5. First Day of My Life - Bright Eyes (not sure if it's even a single)

    Isn't I Predict a Riot a re-release? Shouldn't be allowed really if it is.

    Rebillion (Lies)?

    Yes it is. As is nearly every single of theirs and Somebody Told Me.

    In no paticular order my top five would have to include..

    The Futureheads - Decent days and nights.
    Editors - Munich.
    Kaiser Chiefs - I Predict a riot.
    Maximo Park - Apply some pressure.
    The Rakes - 22 Grand job/Strasbourg.

    I think that Razorlight - Somewhere else, Bloc Party - Two more years, The Kooks - Sofa song, Yeti - Never lose your sense of wonder and Wolfman ft. Pete doherty - For lovers would have to feature in my top ten too. Been quite a good year music wise really. Strange to think a year ago i hadn't heard of most of these bands...

    Me too, some good choices in there.

    I must say I'm dissapointed with the number of people who have put songs from 2004 in there though!!!!!!!!!!!
