i know there's lots of threads in a similar vein to this one, but i didn't see one quite the same so i thought i'd start it. i decided to make a playlist of my favorite tracks from the releases of '07 that i have. i limited it to one track per album. it was a cool way to review the year's music for me, and thought other people might be interested to do the same. so here's mine:

the arcade fire - keep the car running
arctic monkeys - balaclava
band of horses - is there a ghost
ben harper & the innocent criminals - fool for a lonesome train

bruce springsteen - livin' in the future

kaiser chiefs - the angry mob
kid rock - blue jeans and a rosary
kings of leon - charmer
lcd soundsystem - all my friends
liars - sailing to byzantium
lucinda williams - fancy funeral
marilyn manson - if i was your vampire
modest mouse - parting of the sensory
my morning jacket - it makes no difference
neil young - ordinary people
the nightwatchman - one man revolution
nine inch nails - zero-sum
norah jones - sinkin' soon
pat monahan - always midnight
paul mccartney - dance tonight

ryan adams and the cardinals - if i am a stranger (live recording from 'follow the lights')

son volt - highways and cigarettes (recording session acoustic)
spoon - the underdog
velvet revolver - she builds quick machines

    Good call on "Once in Your Life". I forgot about that. "You and I Are Both Away" is also really good, but I agree with you that "Once" is the best song on the album.

    I would also add "Start a War" by The National to my list.
