THE SINGLES OF 2011.

We’re knee deep in list season, and with our Sound of 2012 list hitting the streets last week, it’s time to take one final look back at 2011 before diving headfirst into the new year. Singles have always been our preferred music format, so as is tradition, we present to you our Top Singles of 2011 list. As per usual, only requirements are that they had to have been released in 2011 (either as a single or on an album) and that they can’t have been released through Neon Gold (a heartbreaker given “Manners” and “Dreamers” alone accounted for probably 50% of our iTunes plays this year, but the show must go on). Streams and downloads (where permitted) available via Soundcloud.
