I gave most of the Miike Snow points but that was only coz Lykke Li sang on it most probably.

Fitzpleasure also makes a low appearance despite it actually finishing 2nd in a UP contest that year. Otherwise not too many surprises.

Bloc Party and Ben Howard might be considered as being surprisingly low.

The owls are not what they seem Pronouns: He/him Joined: 11 July 2009 Posts: 37,128 User: 9,232	Fall 4 U/Take a Walk were some of my favourite BJSC discoveries from that year, nice to see them finishing decently.

Also in this batch are both Muse tracks and the first Crystal Castles track. Sadly also Spitfire is in this lot.

I Was Born Free Joined: 23 October 2006 Posts: 5,717 User: 1,751	I wanted Taro and Comeback Kid to come higher. Slightly mystified at the low showing from all 3 Alt-J tracks.
