Heaven Is For Easy Girls – I coulda sworn this was part of twee-core but no, they come to their tweeness the easy way -through Canada.
2. Punk Rock Dream Come True – Bratmobile – They wanted to be your Joey Ramone as well.
3. Growing Her Wings – Lauren Alaina Much, much better than creepy crawly McCreery. The entire album, especially the rockers, are pretty good. It's been a good year for female country singers as a whole and this is a fun coming of ager without an ounce of sentimentality.
4. Don't Cry Baby, Its Only A Movie – Television Personalities – Sounds like Belle And Debastian with a steadier back beat.
5. Finito – N.O.R.E.
6. Art Of Dying – George Harrison – The quiet one explains his thanatological fascination as a form of spiritual ecstacy.
7. Zing! Went The Stings Of My Heart – Judy Garland – From the Carnegie Hall Concert. A Great artist making great art.
8. Feed The Birds (Tuppence A Bag) – Julie Andrews – In current currency, that'd be around ten bucks.
9. Virus – Bjork – I wish she'd hire the Dirty Projectors to be her back up band for the rest of her life.
10. Hands Clean – Alanis Morrisette – Creepier than "You've gotta Know". Also better,.
