Tag happy new year
Inspired by Valerie, here’s my year in music. As you can see, the Mountain Goats have completely dominated my chart. They deserve all the plays they got. In other news: my annual chart features two great bands I’d never listened to before 2011: the New Pornographers and Lambchop! in addition, I grew to love some bands even more in 2011: Superchunk! the Hold Steady! Ted Leo! Bonnie Prince Billy! And all the rest are good too, but have maintained an expected position in my top 20. Especially the Mountain Goats.
Wisdom ascribe, and might, and praiseCharles Wesley’s New Year’s Hymns (1749)
To God, who lengthens out our days,
Who spares us yet another year,
And lets us see His goodness here;
Happy, and wise, the time redeem,
And live, my friends, and die to Him.
Happy new year!
