Best Single: Kingdom Of Doom

Best Album Track: 80s Life

 

Green Fields:

 

This was never going to be as good as the Gorillaz, but whatever Damon Albarn touches, turns to gold imo. Sounds a bit like Blur when they were good.

Best Single: Relax (Take It Easy)

Best Album Track: Lollipop

Consistently good album from Mika, aside from the woam with a wedding dress and no eyes :angry: Toss up for best single between Relax and Happy Ending. I should mention Grace Kelly, but I have rather gone off it of late again.

Mark Ronson is almost a genius - he has twiddled with various songs and managed to make a few better than the originals - such as Valerie and the brilliant Apply Some Pressure.

Best Album Track: In My Arms

 

Wow:

 

I am so glad Kylie came back with a great album. In My Arms and The One (the ebst tracks on the album) had better be singles! Wow is released soon, and way better than 2 Hearts, so it is down as the best single :P

Interesting comparison, Mark - good to see you love the same two summer tracks - Groove Armarda and Robyn- that I do. Thanks for commenting.

I thought it was a single when I typed it, but I couldn't remember :( :lol: I must have charted it as well :unsure: I will change it to Russian Literature instead :P

Best Single: Once Upon A Time

Best Album Track: Photograph

 

Once Upon A Time:

 

Photograph:

 

 

I love Air - but most of you know that :lol: A new Air album is a bit of an event for me - and this is their best album since 2004's Talkie Walkie. Lead single Once Upon A Time went top 40, but Mer Du Japon, the follow up, sank without a trace. As beautiful as I have come to expect from Air :heart:

Best Single: Rehab

Best Album Track: Me And Mr Jones

 

Rehab:

 

Love Is A Losing Game:

 

Well, no real surprise, for many and various reasons this has been Amy's year. So many good tracks on the album, all of which have been singles. She looks so alive on the Rehab video - and by Love Is A Losing Game, she was too wasted to even make a video. Buck your ideas up, Wino.
