What's your top 10 look like?


As the music mags frequently prove, any fool can assemble a top ten best songs list. I think that we, the enthusiasts, can do better than the critics. After all, we're the ones who dwell on every detail, no matter how minute.
I would like to see what other audiophiles listen to. The music is, after all, the most important part of any system, right?
I don't want this to be a contest of whose tastes are the most obscure. I also know that it's difficult to choose just ten songs, so I have decided to simply list the top ten most played tracks in my iTunes library:

1) "9 Crimes" by Damien Rice, from the album 9
2) "Your Hand in Mine" by Explosions in the Sky, from the Friday Night Lights Soundtrack
3) "Empty Room" by Frogpond, from Safe Ride Home
4) "Amie" by Damien Rice, from O
5) "Did I Say" by Teenage Fanclub, from Four Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty-Six Seconds
6) "Devil's Waitin'" by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, from Howl
7) "What If You" by Joshua Radin, from We Were Here
8) "Blue in Green" by Miles Davis, from Kind of Blue
9) "The Longer I Lay Here" by Pedro the Lion, from It's Hard to Find a Friend
10) "I Might be Wrong" by radiohead, from Amnesiac

What do you all have?
