1. Drown Soda – Hole – As we hunker down for the end of the world, perhaps this is as good a time as any to write something nice about Love. Her vocal performance is ravished and terrified and cried. "Just you wait till everyone is hooked…

2. What The Water gave Me – Florence + The Machine – More water, why are chick singers obsessed with their placentas.

3. Skinny Love – Birdy – I prefer female falsettoes so maybe that's why I prefer this to the original.

4. Baby – Justin Bieber – I gotta tell ya, that Swift duet turned me around on this.

5. Layin' Up With Linda – The Lemonheads – Cool, murderous song, it's like a country death song as a strumalong.

6. Are You That Someone – Aaliyah

7. I'm Gonna Love You Through It – Martina McBride – This is such bullshit. A cancer song? I'm throwing up in my mouth.

8. She Will – Lil Wayne – This is Weezy's first major disappoint this year. Fucking Drake.

9. Bad As Me – Tom Waits – OK, this one is a grower. And, ps, I didn't say I hated him, I said his beacon show was iffy.

10. TV Luv Song – Wavves – This is the opposite of Waits. I loved Waits but he was only OK at the Beacon, I liked didn't love Wavves but they blew me away at the Beacon and now can do no wrong.
