Easily one of the best songs of all time.

"You're so talented
I'm in love
let's make love
and listen to Death from Above"

Röyksopp: The Girl and the Robot [ft. Robyn] [Astralwerks]

Even girls and robots have their problems. I love Robyn, she is made of charm.

Mos Def: Casa Bey

Mos Def recapturing the Greatness. Worry less about acting, keep doing this.

Lily Allen: Not Fair [Capitol]

Singing a topical song over a random upbeat country-western track may seem like a "Whose Line is it Anyway?" routine, but yet again she has co-written a very catchy song.

Future of the Left: The Hope That House Built [4AD]

Future of the Left continues and expands on McLusky's job of contributing the most biting and funny titles and lyrics in rock. "The Hope that House Built" continues in this proud tradition. I don't even need a song, just that title.

Dinosaur Jr.: Over It

Dinosaur is awesome and cannot stop. They do not have the ability to stop being awesome.

Major Lazer: Zumbi

Who's my favorite survivor of the secret zombie wars with lasers for hands? Major Lazer.

Dirty Projectors: Stillness is the Move

Still one of the biggest surprises (to me anyway) of 2009. It's kinda like growing up on Mariah Carey and being in an indie rock band suddenly merged. A beautiful child of mixed parentage.

Major Lazer: Hold the Line

With Santigold and Mr. Lex. Exactly how I imagined it would be.

Wavves: No Hope Kids

Ah Wavves. Lots of talent which he uses to make lo-fi pop and terrible over-drugged live performances (leading to silly indie rock scandal). He's like a kid who gets in trouble at an expensive private school. All smoking in his school uniform where the headmistress can't see.

SOnic Youth: ADD: Antenna

Sonic Youth on one of Pitchfork.tv's shows, ADD. Good stuff.
