Here are a few that DO make the list 1. Imogen Heap - Speak for Yourself (more than worth it's $9.99 price tag!) 2. Gemma Hayes - The Roads Don't Love You 3. Sarah Harmer - I'm A Mountain (finally got it sent from the North) 4. Kathleen Edwards - Back to Me (only slightly disappointing) 5. I've no doubt that Nellie McKay's release (Dec. 27) will be on this list Some albums I enjoyed listening to in 2005 (though they weren't released this year): Ray Lamontagne - Trouble Richard Buckner - Dents and Shells The Disappointments: 1. Death Cab for Cutie - Plans 2. Esthero - Wikked Lil' Grrrls gretchen - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: "Michael Keast" To: headline-girl@smoe.org Subject: RE: best of 2005 Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2005 13:34:20 -0500 >Nice to see this list picking up a little, things have been pretty quiet lately! I always look forward to this thread, it's fun to check other peoples' lists for good albums I may have missed during the year. Here are my picks for my favourite albums of 2005: > >1. Protest The Hero - Kezia > >2. Dangerdoom - The Mouse and the Mask > >3. Ash - Meltdown (I may be cheating a little on this one, but I'm pretty sure it didn't get released in North America until 2005. BTW, I have Emm's cover of "Shining Light" to thank for making me an Ash fan - thanks Emm!) > >4. Coldplay - X&Y > >5. Sarah Harmer - I'm a Mountain > >6. Blueprint - 1988 > >7. Common - Be > >8.
