Top Ten (Well, Eleven) Tracks of 2011

Actually, the top tracks that I've listened to. Not necessarily from 2011, but within 2011.

All stats tracked via last.fm, which includes stats from my PC via Spotify and Amarok, and from my phone via Winamp and Spotify. I think I've tracked over 90% of what I listen to, so this is fairly accurate.

Coming in at number 9 are 3 tracks:

Cee Lo Green with (the clean version) "Forget You"



Brandi Carlile with "Caroline"



and an old favourite
Kula Shaker with "Hush"



Number 7 has 2 tracks:

Diane Birch with "Fools"



Toto Coelo with "Dracula's Tango" (possibly the greatest pop song ever!) (no apologies ;-) )



Coming in a No.6 is Portishead with "Roads"



Number 5 is Moby with "Extreme Ways (Bourne's Ultimatum)

No embedding allowed!


A three way tie at number 2:

Plain White T's with "Rhythm of Love"



Katy Perry with "Firework" (The top favourite of my daughter!)



Yeah Yeah Yeahs with "Zero"



and number 1 is...

Imelda May with "Mayhem"



Special mention should go to R.E.M. as their "Collapse into Now" album has notched up a track listening total of 133, and RJD2 for his "Deadringer" album amassing 74 track listenings like this one:



and finally, coming out of nowhere, the album "Rome" by Danger Mouse & Daniele Luppi. This album quickly went to the top of my playlists, and still sounds fresh even after 125 track listenings (This is the one album where the numbers should be higher. I listen to this a lot on the underground, so not all listenings are recorded due to lack of connection. Total plays are probably well over 200!). Featuring vocals from Jack White and Norah Jones, I cannot recommend this enough. I will leave you with this, "Black" featuring Norah Jones
