I like this thread. There were some amazing songs by artists that didn't necessarily put out great albums. I'll put something together within the next day or two.

Exactly! Like the song "Stop" by Chain Gang of 1974 - terrible album, but such a banger

You've provided me a neat way to talk shit to you. Thanks.
I've listened to most of these, but I probably couldn't make a top 15 songs of 2011 list. I'll pick and choose what songs stand out to me, and disagree (most likely) with you.
First up, you have "Lemonade" by the Braids listed near the top of your list. "Glass Deers" is easily the best song on the album, so I'm glad you at least included it near the bottom of your list.

You have three songs listed from Let England Shake, but the best is "Written On The Forehead," not listed here.

"One Sunday Morning" is a rad song, I agree, but the best on Wilco's latest is by far "Art Of Almost."

Maybe I'm just kicking the can around on some of these, but I strongly feel "County Line" by Cass McCombs is shit compared to "A Knock Upon The Door," which would probably make my top ten.
