1. Coldplay: Viva La Vida

2. Oasis: I'm Outta Time

3. The Raconteurs: Carolina Drama

Nope

 

 

Coldplay: Violet Hill

O.A.R.: Shattered (Turn the Car Around)

Radiohead: Jigsaw Falling Into Place (album was released Jan 1st 08)

Black Burning Heart-Keane

Lovers In Japan-Coldplay

Talons-Bloc Party

Says who

No matter where you put it I'm Outta Time deserves to be up there. I considered it at #1 if it wasnt for Coldplay this year.

Well I'd say:

Coldplay - Strawberry Swing

Radiohead - House of Cards

Keane - Perfect Symmetry

Coldplay - Viva la Vida

The Killers - Spaceman

Radiohead - House of Cards

Narrowing down the choice to 3 is hard enough, but to put them into order is harder, but...

 

1 - Elbow - Grounds for Divorce

2 - Snow Patrol -The Lightning Strike

3 - The Myraid - A clean shot

Volcano-Beck

The Rip-Portishead

White Winter Hymnal-Fleet Foxes

 

 

i consider In Rainbows to be a 2007 album

Good list. Not the usual Coldplay and Oasis choices haha.

 

Mine would be:

 

1. Bon Iver - For Emma

2. Elbow - Grounds For Divorce

3. Hey Rosetta! - There's An Arc

 

But this list could change by tomorrow.

My list would be:

 

1. Coldplay- Viva La Vida

 

2. Coldplay - Violet Hill

 

3. Coldplay - 42

Coldplay - Viva La Vida

MGMT - Time To Pretend

Elbow - The Bones Of You

 

It was difficult to pick one song from Seldom Seen Kid from this album couldve gone with Grounds For Divorce, Mirrorball, On A Day Like This or Weather To Fly. I like them and The Bones Of You equally.

Only 3? No way, there have been FAR too many good songs released this year.

1. Frightened Rabbit, "The Modern Leper"

2. Vampire Weekend, "A-Punk"

3. Coldplay, "Viva La Vida"

 

Subject to change ten times in the next week

1.Verve - Columbo

2.Exit Calm - We're On Our Own

3.Radiohead - All I Need

Coldplay - Viva La Vida

MGMT - Time To Pretend

Elbow - The Bones Of You

Excellent choice, Sir!

 

1) Coldplay - Violet Hill (just because it surprised me so much the first time I heard it - really I could spend days choosing between half the songs off VLAODAAHF)

 

2) Elbow - One Day Like This

 

3) Vampire Weekend - Campus

 

(Was hard to pick between Vampire Weekend & MGMT, but I think the fact I saw VW recently swayed me. Both groups made phenomenal albums this year)

1. Snow Patrol - The Lightning Strike

2. Situationists - Fireworks

3. Strawberry Swing (what did you expect? :P)

No matter where you put it I'm Outta Time deserves to be up there. I considered it at #1 if it wasnt for Coldplay this year.

 

Why?

 

I found it wore thin very quickly.

 

The Lennon bit is a nice touch tho. But its just another Oasis ballad. Theres nothing that wrong with it, but its pretty much just another fine song on a fine album.

 

 

 

For me Coldplay's Yes/Chinese Sleep Chant has to get there. Along with that R.E.M song Man Sized Wreath. Nothing else I think is all that brilliant after that, so I'd go with Fires by Feeder.

Only 3? No way, there have been FAR too many good songs released this year.

Its tough to make any kind of definitive list, I agree. But, If you have made one... What would the top 3 be?

1. Death and all his friends - Coldplay

 

2. Grounds for Divorce - Elbow

 

3. I Daresay Glass of Water - Coldplay could be well fucking up there!!!!

1 or 2: Coldplay: Viva La Vida (even though right now i dont like listening to it cause its been overplayed)

1 or 2: The Killers: Ive only heard previews, but there will defs be one song from Day and Age in this list, I just havnt chosen yet :)

3: Either another Day&Age song or something off of Propekt's.

 

I am so indecisive

1. Viva La Vida - Coldplay

2. I'm Outta Time - Oasis

3. So What - Pink (yes... I like this song... hehehe)

1. Cemeteries of London -Coldplay

2. It's Not My Time- 3 Doors Down

3. Say- John Mayer
