Happy New Years Eve everyone. I figured it would only be fitting to share with you my Top Album of 2009 on this lovely band recommendation Thursday. Don’t worry there will be a band next week, but here are some CDs I think you should check out this week. Normally it is customary to list your top 10, but I don’t really like the number 10 so I am going to share with you my top 13 albums of 2009. How could one complain about 3 extra gems anyway?

10 of your 13 are some of my favorites of this year.
Favorite song of 2009 is Michele too cause…hello it’s written about you and your habit of eating wrapping paper. And the whole getting the song, the voicemails, the angst was really fun so it’s my favorite song of 2009. And it was the 1st song that I listened to in 2010.

Hearing Damage by Thom Yorke
Knocked Up, Lykke Li covering Kings of Leon
