Top 10 Songs Of The Decade

before you disagree with everything that is about to be said spare a thought about how difficult it is to compile these god forsaken top 10s…it aint easy i can tell thee…if you like your music a bit raw then you may like this list…

the past decade is awash with the usual company led dreck that the music industry likes to inject us with…daily and anally…the kind of safe drivel your grandmother can tap her arthritis ridden feet to…but the good always prevails…not in the mainstream so much but its there…like my grandmother always said “I cant tap my arthritis ridden feet to Radioheads “Pyramid Song”…to which my reply was always the same “thats because its in 16/8 time Nan…no one can tap their feet to 16/8″

1. TV on the Radio — “Wolf Like Me”

much hype…and sometimes…just sometimes its true

2. The White Stripes — “Seven Nation Army”

even HardFi have covered this well worn song…remeber hardfi?…no?

3. The Strokes — “Last Nite”

ah yes…you know that pattern of guitar strum…it goes down, down, down, down, down, down…blame them not for the myriad shit bands who think this guitar pattern constitutes a style

4. Radiohead — “Pyramid Song”

come on Nan! on yer feet!

5. Alberta Cross – “ATX”

nice find towards end of year…damn fine album too called “Broken Side Of Time”

6. Queens of the Stone Age — “No One Knows”

ah that riff

7. Johnny Cash — “Hurt”

this dint hurt his bank account though *note to self: awful fucking joke..castigate with palm later

8. Arctic Monkeys — “I Bet You Look Good…”

theres that pattern again….

9. Arcade Fire — “Rebellion (Lies)”

nicely done…thought second album was meh

10. Fleet Foxes — “White Winter Hymnal”

and so young…the bastards

so concludes…next will be “Top 10 Worst…” because…you know…we love misery…and there was plenty of that going on
