So that oft promised entry-of-real-substance is still proving quite elusive. However until that mythical beast materializes I've put together, for your listening enjoyment/torture my very own Best of 2009 compilation. It differs dramatically from the Top 20 Songs I posted on Facebook, mostly because quite a few of those songs were super obvious and/or songs everyone's heard fifty quadrillion times (I'm pretty sure most people are sick of "1901" by now) and also because they were really freaking hard to make work as a compilation. I mean some are still here, but after I came up with that list on Le Livre De Visage, I thought of a few more that were more indicative of what I listened to most throughout 2009.
So...lacking any further unnecessary ado (I maintain a staunch anti-ado stance,) here ya go;
Orko's Creatively Titled "Best Of 2009"! Here's the tracklist as I arranged it, but feel free to arrange them to your liking.
1. Morrissey - Something Is Squeezing My Skull
2. The Pains of Being Pure At Heart - A Teenager In Love
3. Phoenix - Lisztomania
4. The Raveonettes - Breaking Into Cars
5. Muse - Undisclosed Desires
6. Lily Allen - The Fear
7. Bat For Lashes - Pearl's Dream
8. jj - Ecstasy
9. Washed Out - Feel It All Around
10. Lady GaGa - So Happy I Could Die
11. Sally Shapiro - Moonlight Dance
12. Zoot Woman - More Than Ever
13. Pet Shop Boys - Pandemonium
14. IAMX - You Can Be Happy
15. Junior Boys - Hazel
16. Tiesto (with Tegan & Sara) - Feel It In My Bones
17. Royksopp (with Robyn) - The Girl & The Robot
18. The Big Pink - At War With The Sun
19. The Sound Of Arrows - Into The Clouds
20. Metric - Stadium Love
It should just fit onto a standard 80 minute CD, should you choose to burn it. If not, well, I guess just leave the Lady GaGa song off since it seems like 50% of the population has arbitrarily chosen to hate her without listening to her music anyway lol.
