I’ve listened to so much great music over the last year that it would be impossible to compile a complete list of great earworms, but here are a few that I thought are also noteworthy:
Conservative Christian from Todd Snider’s latest studio release East Nashville Skyline. No matter how many times I hear this song I have to laugh at the lyrics. What an immensely talented songwriter Todd is.
Dark and Weary World from the South Austin Jug Band is the title track to their latest album which would be on my favorite album’s of 2005 list if I had one. I saw these guys at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival after they won the band competition there and have been a huge fan ever since.
Who Will Save Us From the Saved? off of David Gans’ new album Solo Electric is a well written song with a great message that any critically thinking, freedom loving, rational person can appreciate.
The Grid from the new Michael Gordon and Leo Kottke colaboration, Sixty Six Steps is such a cool song with wonderful lyrics and melody. What a great combination of talent. I hope they keep playing and performing together for a long time.
What are your favorite songs from 2005?
