Now, i could totally supply links to find free downloads to all the songs on this list, but i'm lazy, and i've had a bit too much to drink tonight, so you really should be able to find all of these on The Hype Machine.
Anyway, that's my list. I had to leave a lot of really good stuff off of there, but i stand by it. If you feel i have made any egregious errors, or that i've left off something that kicked you in the balls this year, let me know. I am open and ready for comments, suggestions, and ridicule.
