The best songs of 2008

Katy Perry and Duffy may have topped the charts, but the daring and witty Estelle, Dido, MGMT and co made 2008's best tracks

 

 

2 GRAFTON STREET — Dido

 

No more coffee-table music for Dido. Her album Safe Trip Home was a giant step forward, and Grafton Street — a song about the death of her father — was its sad but beautiful core. Empathetic keyboards by Brian Eno and an unlikely recorder solo frame the acceptance of loss: “Nothing’s left that’s safe here now, / Nothing will bring you home, / Nothing can bring us the peace / We had in Grafton Street.”

 

not bad eh?
