Also there were several non-album tracks included with the album on Grooveshark - their cover of I Can't Make You Love Me (which I think was a Bonnie Raitt hit in the early 90s, if I remember right) is atrocious. And mind you I didn't like the original, but their cover sounds like they wanted to be Bonnie Raitt. Bad karaoke. However, the next non-album track (I think Come Talk To Me) was phenomenal.
I'm trying to listen to the top 10 of Paste's top 50 for the year. I'm not impressed by the titles, but we'll see. Anyone else got some respected media top 10 lists for 2011 that they can link me to? |

I always love looking at this at the end of the year ^ and they update it almost daily.
Out of the nominees we have in this poll definitely Bon Iver (actually maybe my choice anyway) but I think it'll be super gross if Let England Shake becomes the most critically acclaimed of the year.

Treefight for Sunlight - Treefight for Sunlight is the best album of 2011.
I am abstaining from the vote because I am not a big fan of any on the list!

I still can get into Strange Mercy dammit and I want to! "Cruel" is such a kick ass song, i'm considering to put it on my #1 instead of "somebody that i used to know"  |
El Camino has been very good

Yeah, i liked it a lot and I think it will grow further in me, still I think I exagerated with my expectations, I really thought it was going to blow my mind.
