Acclaimed Music Top 45 Songs from 2010 poll

It amuses me that the "most commercial" song/single from a triple album sounds like the McGarrigles going prog.
It puzzles me that a Platinum Blonde cover sung by the guy from the Cure is regarded as one of the best songs of the year 2010.

Glad to see this series come back to life. There are too many Arcade Fire songs on this list even if I like that album. I couldn't get past the first entry and Robyn will get this vote.

I think “Rill Rill” is decent enough but every other song on that album is better/more interesting

Yeah not too into that one but would prob vote Infinity Guitars if it were an option

Leaning toward shutterbug but there are 3 or 4 songs i haven't heard

christ what a horrible list. a handful of good songs drowning in a sea of shite

waka

i have peaked ahead and this years list is the worst of the decade, trying to say is that it will get better. regardless, still going to try and listen to all 45 songs before voting.

Oof I actually like most of these songs.

Or at least there’s not a single song here which I hate.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

All of these are good, some of them are great, many are songs I'll never go out of my way to listen to again

lots of garbage here. weirdly the yeasayer song still sounds great to me

finally decided on the biggest earworm of the year for me "Pumped Up Kicks." sort of a messed up story. when this song was big and everywhere i remember we had a mass shooting, don't know which one as the US has them all the time now. this song popped in my head and would not leave.

"All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run faster than my bullet"

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.
