"Best Of '09"

Okay, so I've been looking at several "Best Of '09" lists that are posted on various websites, everyone makes one.  They're the popular thing to do at the end of any year, you know that.  It's very strange because, after seeing them, I've determined that I either...

A. Don't listen to any "good" music

B. Noticed that every list focuses on unknown hip "indie" stuff

C. Read bad "Best Of '09" lists

D. Need to expand my musical horizons

E. Am obviously the one who listens to good music, they just don't know it

...or a mix of several of those answers.  I read over these lists with a confused look on my face.  What is this stuff?  Some of the lists I've read are Amazon, Pitchfork, and Rolling Stone.  I'll show you some of my thoughts on each list.

Amazon

Out of all the albums I've heard 5 of them in their entirety.

Muse - The Resistance

Lily Allen - It's Not Me, It's You
Silversun Pickups - Swoon
Imogen Heap - Ellipse

Yeah Yeah Yeah's  - It's Blitz!

 

Not too impressive.  I've also heard bits and pieces from plenty of the others.

Song list score: 23 out of 100...
