Here is my list of favorite songs of the year. As I always say every year, this is entirely subjective. These are just songs that caught me by surprise and stayed in my head for a majority of the year.
25. St. Vincent - "Cruel"
This album was consistently great, and tough to pick a favorite. But this just stood out.
24. Danger Mouse and Daniele Lupi - "Black (Feat. Norah Jones)"
Start keeping count -- this is song number one that I first heard on Breaking Bad.
23. Movits! - "Sammy Davis, Jr."
22. Nicki Minaj - "Super Bass"
Yes. I like Nicki Minaj. Shut up.
21. John Mark McMillan - "Seen a Darkness"
20. Over the Rhine - "Infamous Love Songs"
19. Shad - "The One in Front of the Garage"
18. James Vincent McMorrow - "If I Had a Boat"
17. Champion Leader - "Every Head Bowed and Every Eye Closed"
16. Alexander - "Truth"
Song number two from the past season of Breaking Bad.
15. Beyonce - "Countdown"
14. M83 - "Midnight City"
13. TV On The Radio - "New Cannonball Blues"
12. The Decemberists - "Calamity Song"
11. Ryan Adams - "Chains of Love"
10. Switchfoot - "Vice Verses"
9. The Civil Wars - "Barton Hollow"
There are a couple favorites on this album, but this one really stuck with me.
8. Madeon - "Pop Culture"
This probably shouldn't count, since it's just a remix of over 30 songs. But I just love it. It's fun, different, and another one that's been stuck in my head all year.
7. tUnE-YarDs - "Bizness"
Although typing out their name correctly, this band surprised me in many ways -- one of the biggest is that I actually quite enjoyed it.
6. Fleet Foxes - "Helplessness Blues"
5. Slow Club - "Two Cousins"
4. Typhoon - "The Honest Truth"
3. Feist - "The Bad in Each Other"
2. Bon Iver - "Holocene"
1. The National - "Exile Vilify"
