the only thing that i didn't like was how you could actually understand what tyondai's saying, but i love how music for 18 musicians it feels
 
Young Blood - The Naked and Famous

My favorite is:
Pure magic is the birth of my kiRAB
I've seen **** that'd shock your eyeliRAB
Music is all magic
You can't even hold it

I love how they ironically are trying to bring support to the uneducated underdogs and show what they are capable of. Stay in school kiddies.
 
whoops on the link there.

I agree about Sorrow though, fantastic song. I dig all of High Violet but Sorrow and Conversation 16 are definitely the standouts for me.
 
I'll admit, I havn't heard Buckethead or Avenged Sevenfold's '10 albums, both of which would probably have songs that make it onto this list, but I have to say my favorite couple of songs so far would be:

1. Eminem- Talkin' 2 Myself
[YOUTUBE]Ei--EvjnCUw[/YOUTUBE]
2. Jeff Beck- Serene
[YOUTUBE]QXEzWs8yLk8[/YOUTUBE] (Actually, Emotion and Comotion is really good, and there might be a couple songs in this list, but this one was my initial favorite)

and, though this one might not clirab as high as those two

Slash with Myles Kennedy- Back From Cali

Foals - Black Gold
Gorillaz - Empire Ants
Massive Attack - Splitting the Atom
MGMT - Song for Dan Treacy and Siberian Breaks
Interpol - Lights
 
William Fitzsimmons - So This Is Goodbye.
Broken Social Scene - Forced To Love/All To All
Wolf Parade - Ghost Pressure (catchy)
Beach House - Zebra
Broken Bells - Mongrel Heart
Band of Horses - Bartle + James
I'll update later.

No particular order.

Los Campesinos!- Coda: A Burn Scar In the Shape of the Sooner State
Paul Baribeau- Eight Letters
Shearwater- Black Eyes
Titus Andronicus- No Future Part 3: Escape from No Future
Owen Pallett- Lewis Takes Off His Shirt
The National- Bloodbuzz Ohio
The Hold Steady- Soft in the Center
Horse Feathers- Heaven's No Place
Yeasayer- O.N.E

I have a lot of 2010 albums, but I haven't given a lot of them repeat listens yet.
 
I know, woopsy.

Hi5! Sorrow is my stand out song of High Violet, I love that album. Up there rivalling Alligator as my favourite. :D I feel High Violet is a little top heavy, though I do like the second half batch of the album.

It's a pity the rest of the album wasn't as good as this gem.

Excellent opening track from probably the best album of 2010 so far.

The best song on Contra, it's soulful, chilled-out and intelligent.
