2009 was quite the year for music; we saw comebacks from grunge giants Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains, the emergence of glam-pop prima donna Lady Gaga, and we watched auto-tune slowly take over top 40 radio. It also brought an end to the decade that many called 'the downfall of music as we know it'; a statement that's downright foolish for anyone with a computer to say. While I must admit that there was an influx of shoddy mainstream rock bands who put more of a focus on image than music, it was an incredible decade for pop music, both independent and commercial. Without further ado, I present to you, my reader(s), my top 5 singles of 2009 (keep in mind that these are singles, not just any arbitrary album cuts).
5. Lady Gaga - Poker Face
4. Girls - Lust for Life
3. Animal Collective - Brother Sport
2. Jay-Z - Empire State of Mind (feat. Alicia Keys)
1. Phoenix - Lisztomania
About Me
- Luke Dowker
- I like to write a lot. I like grape flavored drinks. I'm fairly uninteresting. We can probably be good friends.
