The Opening Acts’ Obligatory Songs Of The Year Post: Part Two
Part One can be found here.
One thing of note: My favorite song of the year can be found within the over-falsettoed mess that is “The Night, The Night” by Chet. As outlined in this prior post, there is a 70-second stretch of pure beauty that begins at around the 1:38 mark. Though I’m indifferent towards the rest of the song, those 70 seconds got stuck in my head like nothing else this year.
If you like what you hear, go out and purchase the albums which contain these songs. If you don’t like what you hear, then you’re a disgrace to society (although I guess it’s okay if you don’t like the parts of the Chet song that I don’t care for – we’ll call truce on that one).
Enjoy.
1) Chet – The Night, The Night
2) Amy Millan – Old Perfume
3) The Rosie Taylor Project – Lovers Or Something Like It
4) Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Skeletons (Acoustic)
5) Múm – Hullaballabalú
6) Yo La Tengo – More Stars Than There Are In Heaven
