Moments in Music 2012

1. bat for lashes - all my gold

2. purity ring - belispeak

3. gotye - somebody i used to know
This song haunted me for most of the year, and I spent the year avoiding it, walking out of bars and shops if it was on, literally covering my ears if I heard it because of what it represents to me.

4. grimes - genesis
one of those songs I over played this year. I believe this song helped me, chronically, through a long and tough part of my life. I put a lot of pressure on this song.

5. whitney houston - i will always love you
left on my playlist by someone who communicated me with songs

5. vive le fete - noir desir
J'ai un espirit trouble - a troubled song for a troubled boy

7. jane wiedlin - rush hour
I heard this song on the radio while in the IOW and remember it from somewhere and listened to it loads the weekend Aaron and I became 'official'

8. lana del rey - video games
heaven is a place on earth with you
i don't really like lana del rey but this song langurously lingered during the year giving a rose tinted false idea of summer and memories

9. beat connection - palace garden 4am
catchy song I heard at the hairdressers the day I ruined my hair. It cheered me up and I looked forward to getting up in the morning to play it loud while I was in the shower

10. ducksauce - big bad wolf
summer, pussy palace, going on all night and all day, to this ridiculous song. we used to dance around in the bar room to this.

11. foster the people - pumped up kicks

12. class actress - keep you

13. Louis Benton - weekend offender
this song reminds me of new friends I made this summer, chic, jackin house and feeling good in a crowded club

14. Hannah Wants - you want me

15. tamion 12 inch - camera
this is one of my favourite songs anyway, but this year while partying with my brother and hanging out at pussy palace, i found it on youtube, with this video made using photos of the duckface girl, showing how even with loads of the same photos show that this girl poses the same in every fucking picture, and on drugs, it's a really disturbing video.

16. beyonce - why don't you love me?
greg played this before our holiday

17. Maroon 5- moves like jagger 
i hate this song but it reminds me of my holiday and greg's parents were obsessed with it. seriously! so by the end of the holiday, i was so drunk i was happy to dance to it.

18. KD Lang miss chatelaine
The song I requested the most on holiday! It made me daydream of Santi sweeping me off my feet and taking me away

19. abba - waterloo
the song I performed a dance to for all my holiday friends

20. harry belafonte - day-o
another song I performed a dance to, this time, the dance form Beetlejuice, much to the delight of the people in the bar

21. summer camp = better off without you
Reunited with this song when the lyrics seemed to match my relationship with my ex - 'stop calling me late at night'

22. aska - love trance
the sunniness of this song seemed to make me remember of the sunlight streaming into my flat during a coke trance in the spring

23. sugarcubes/diana vikers - hit
was hit by this song, when i realised it was a bjork song also

24. rammstein - du riechst sehr gut
love the technoness of this song, played on the shop floor this year

25. The Irrepressibles - tears of a clown (rexrexrex remix)
one of the songs played by Mark, reminds me of Halloween and times with Mark! a happy sad song.

26. Peaches - Fuck the Pain Away (Tits n Clits remix)
stuck on repeat until i turned it off on holiday in IOW

27. Fleetwood Mac - Go Your Own Way
Cam's favourite

28. Desire - Under Your Spell
I used to listen to this endlessly, literally waiting for time to heal

29. College - Can I Kiss You First
name of my tumblr, favourite college song

30. Roisin Murphy - Tell Everybody
did it make it harder or easier, that spring and summer, with people walking past my shop, when this played?
i almost remember your face, but its fading, its fading fast

31. Crossover - Black Mess
G4 Man sinema sample in a song i would listen to while i stared at myself in the mirror stoned out my face... the dark sounds suit the dark end of this year

32. Crytal Castles - Telepath
ravey song from new album which will define end of 2012

33. The Waterboys - The Whole of the Moon
new  favourite song of all time, i feel helps describe my attitude to life from the point of view of someone else trying to keep up with me

34. Frankmusik - Done Done
a song that wrenched and weighed me down wondering what someone was doing now he was gone

35. Nightfoxxx - The Shape of things to Come
shape of things to come...

36. Mark Farina featuring Sean Hayes - Dream Machine
makes me excited to be done with this year

37. Dj Touche - waskeburt
party song of one of the last weekends of the year

38. the presets - down down down
indie shit

39. Temper Trap - where do we go from here?

40. Florence + the Machine - Remain Nameless
this made me think of someone during a time where i could only imagine his pain and there was nothing more I could do, it was just them on their own, and this song was like a message to them from me
