1. 12 songs - Neil Diamond. masterpiece. Even better than Cash's comeback under Rubin.
2. Fireworks on TV - Bill Janovitz and Crown Victoria. (released in 04 but discovered beauty in 05
)
3. Digital Ash In A Digital Urn - Bright Eyes (slightly more fascinating as time goes by, then wide awake...)
4. If You Didn't Laugh You'd Cry - Marah (thanks Sharon, it's a beauty.)
5. Eels - Blinking lights And Other Revelations (endless beauty in simplicity, takes awhile, though..)
ok, because 2. maybe does not count:
6. Arcade Fire - Funeral
