Music 2007

Before I complete my collection of (some) new and interesting music from 2007, I thought I would solicit nominations from the 13D crew.

Feel free to make suggestions in the comments or in your own post...

Cheers,
D

Some of the songs which seem inevitable in remembering 2007:

Hey There Delilah -- Plain White T's
Chasing Cars -- Snow Patrol
Thnks Fr Th Mmrs -- Fall Out Boy (let's all ignore "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race")
Through The Glass -- Stone Sour
What I've Done --- Linkin Park


and Apologies for including:
Crank That --- Solja Boy Tell 'Em
Grace Kelly -- Mika

Classics which returned to my playlist:

Mr. Blue Sky -- Electric Light Orchestra
Amusement Park -- 50 Cent
Brother Can You Spare a Dime -- Bing Crosby
Take a Bow -- Madonna
Mississippi Goddamn -- Nina Simone
Goodbye Stranger --- Supertramp
Pay to Cum -- Bad Brains



Still Listening To (from 2006):
Waiting on the World to Change -- John Mayer
Cheated Hearts -- Yeah Yeah Yeahs


All in all, though, I enjoyed hearing music that I would listen to only 1-3 times, and then forget, more than songs I would return to (like above) again and again. In other words, sorted by the number of times I listen to them, I get more total enjoyment from unmemorable songs and bands than iconic or heavily marketed ones.
