I hope everyone had a good Christmas (or whatever holiday you celebrate). I got a blue iPod Nano for Christmas. I actually haven't had an iPod for a while and usually just use my computer to listen to music, but it will be nice to have an iPod because I can use it while working out or traveling.
Since the new year is approaching this week, I thought I'd do a post of the best music of 2009/the decade. I made a "Best of Decade" mixtape for another group so I thought I'd post that. It was hard to narrow down because most of the music I'm in to is from this past decade anyway. I tried to choose 2 of my favorite songs from each year (2000-2009) and to not use any artists twice.

What do you think the top 10 albums (or songs) of the year were? What about the decade? What are your most anticipated albums for next year? Post your lists in the replies.
