It would have to be the best of you by foo fighters, for me

Top tune alright, also like the new Gorillaz/shaun ryder one

It would have to be Arcade Fire's Wake Up for me

My second favourite song off the album, my fav is Neighbourhood #1 Tunnels.

Excellent album.

Top song of the year for me though is Fix You by Coldplay. Just bigger, bolder, and better than any other song on that album or indeed *any* album I've heard this year

Fairly disappointed that Coldplay used a Kraftwerk sample as blatantly as they did on Talk.

Can't really think off my best song of the year but one that always seems to be in my head is Complicated Situation by BRMC.

Hmmm another 3.5 months of year left, I'll judge then, but so far, none of the usuals, anyone who played @ Oxegen has been flogged to death on Radio, I'd prob say Finding my old copy of Blue Monday last week, nothing this year has shook me up, maybe the Futureheads @ The Savoy but naaah. All teh indie @ the mo is too radio friendly, bring back the days of "Wtf you listenin to baaai?!"

Really :)

I forget at times what came out this year or last....So with that in mind and sorry if I mention last years tunes, my nominees for Best Song of the Year are:

Arcade Fire - Neighbourhood #3 (Power Out)
Antony and the Johnsons - Bird Gerhl
Bright Eyes - First Day of my Life
Futureheads - Decent Days and Nights
Kaiser Chiefs - I predict a riot
Chemical Brothers - Pick one off Push the Button

With new albums from Bellx1 and Turn and Josh Ritter due, things could change.

It's just not very creative for a alledged creative band Gussy.

It has to be that song from the Lucozade ad with all the zombies i dont know why they havent released it. But is this the way to amirillo comes a close second just for the plane home from Israel listening to the lads singing it even the football was better then the singing over there.

Have to add The Killers' "All These Things That I've Done" which was released this year I believe. I don't really like the album but that's a cracking tune.

Though the Stone Roses singles collection was re-released recently :eek:
