Top Albums of 2007
The top two in this list were pretty close. I like The Shins’ album a lot, but I’ve been listening to The Go! Team much more even after seeing them live.

- Arcade Fire – Neon Bible
- Justice – †
- The Thrills – Teenager

Top (Free) Downloads From iTunes Store
I tried to limit myself this year in downloading from the iTunes store because I just had too much crap music that I downloaded “for free”. Maybe I missed some good tracks (I missed an Amy Winehouse single from the beginning of the year), but oh well.
- Justice – D.A.N.C.E. (found out about these guys on iTunes then bought their album)
- Sara Bareilles – Love Song (awesome song, album not so much)
- The Last Goodnight – Pictures of You (basic song, but catchy)
- CSS – Let’s Make Love And Listen From Death From Above (first time I heard of these guys)
- The Tender Box – Mister Sister
- Pacha Massive – Don’t Let Go (I think the only time I downloaded a Latino freebie)
- Metro Station – Shake It
- Bruce Springsteen – Radio Nowhere
This year, I only spent $173.54 on 17 CDs, buying only 6 used CDs. This is continuing the downward trend from 2006, although I spent more going to concerts this year (maybe I should keep track of those numbers for next year).
