Title: Favorite albums of 2010
Post by: Sandy Lane on December 16, 2010, 01:05:37 am

Tis the time of year to think of our favorite new music of 2010.  My faves this year were:  Mumford and Sons Sigh no more, Arcade Fire -the Suburbs, Black Keys - Brothers, New Bruce Springsteen - The promise.  Also liked Florence and the Machine.

Probably forgetting a lot though...

I'll go for the suburbs by arcade fire.  Just gets better with every listen.  Stunning live.

Although not recorded this year, my favourite album of the year is Love, Ire and Song by Frank Turner.

I also rather unexpectedly enjoyed Brand New Eyes by Paramore, thanks to my daughter insisting we go to see them.

Donna Summer....I Feel Love. When she sings that live, it's like she's in a trance
