although naming the top albums of 2007 is a lot of fun...naming my top songs of 2007 is even more fun....so here we go. it is a wide variety of genres (no country sorry)...
many ask throughout the year...but it is with much anticipation and celebration that i offer my top 10 albums of 2007. take some time to check out the albums:
10. marla hansen- wedding day 9. the acorn- glory hope mountain 8. matthew good- hospital music 7. st. vincent- marry me
6. beirut- the flying club cup 5. iron and wine- the shepherds dog 4. sigur ros- hvarf-heim 3. william fitzsimmons- goodnight 2. will stratton- what the night said 1. arcade fire- neon bible
no sense of waiting till the end of the year to post songs that i love. if you are of the downloading persuasion...here are some of my favorite sufjan stevens songs that you might check out... in order of importance.
1. sufjan stevens- the transfiguration
2. sufjan stevens- upper peninsula
3. sufjan stevens- pittsfield
4. sufjan stevens- the predatory wasp of the palisades is out to get us!
5. sufjan stevens- casimir pulaski days
6. sufjan stevens- concerning the ufo sighting over highland, illinois
7. sufjan stevens- all the trees of the fields will clap their hands
well...it is time for the best albums of the year...and i have to admit...i wasn't too impressed this year. last year there were so many great albums...but this year seemed to just drag. so much so...i only have four albums that i highly recommend. yeah...there are probably some that i missed...because i didn't buy the album...like Weird Al's new one...haha. if you have others that i should have included...or that i just completely blew...let me know. also...threw in my favorite songs of '06.
my favorite 4 albums of 2006:
1. Rosie Thomas- These Friends of Mine
2. Sufjan Stevens- The Avalanche (all b-sides of his best album of 2005...but still mind blowing)
