2009 Mixtape

Forgot all about making a best of list for 2009 music...so a little late, but here goes (note: looked at some song lengths, and this probably isn't fitting on one cd...but it's my cd, and I can always split it into two.)

1. Lucero--"Hey Darlin' Do You Gamble?" (I could have picked at least seven songs from this album)
2. Muse--"Resistance"
3. Bruce Springsteen--"The Wrestler"
4. Green Day--"Horshoes and Handgrenades"
5. Modest Mouse--"Guilty Cocker Spaniels" (Probably shouldn't count because it's from an EP, but whatever)
6. mewithoutYou--"Every Thought a Thought of You"
7. Neko Case--"People Got a Lot of Nerve"
8. Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band--"Roosevelt Room" (Best political song in 5 years)
9. Switchfoot--"Hello Hurricane"
10. Yeasayer--"Tightrope" (From a compilation, not an album...and O.N.E. will be on the 2010 list, I'm sure)
11. Meat Puppets--"Sewn Together" (I'm surprised too that they're back)
12. Monsters of Folk--"Dear God"
13. Phoenix--"1901" (Nowhere near as good as the hype they get, but I like this song)
14. Camera Obscura--"Honey in the Sun"
15. Eels--"Beginner's Luck"
16. A.C. Newman--"The Changeling"
17. Better Than Ezra--"Absolutely Still"
18. Metric--"Gimme Sympathy"
19. The Decemberists--"The Hazards of Love 4" (Train wreck of an album, but this is the one great song)
