This is a really strong 2000s chart. I love Funeral (I know everyone does, but how could I justify leaving it off over moving it down, given how awesome it is?), Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, Sound of Silver, and Illinois especially. I have to confess that I haven't really listened much to Since I Left You, so that's probably a major gap in my own 2000s list--this gives me an occasion to check it out again!
