One of these Songs is Song of the Year

At least it’ll the song of the year for me. This is based on the number of listens and this year I’m going to factor in other criteria such as gut instinct and do I still love listening to it after dozens of plays.

Metric – Black Sheep
I think this is an older song but it was used in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (but sung by actress Brie Larson) and definitely sounds great to my ears that love new wave and new wave-influenced bands.

Neon Trees – Animal
I’m really hoping these guys are not “one hit wonders” though I can’t say I am enamored with anything else on their album. This sounds like the kind of song that you’d use a decade from to say “what did things sound like in 2010.”

Infant Sorrow – I am Jesus
From Get Him to the Greek. This song wasn’t really used in the movie much but I really dig it and the sort-of send-up of U2.

So, which song is your favorite?
