TBWHTO #'s 1-10

So we've finally reached the Top Ten and to tell you the truth I think all these songs should speak for themselves and so I'm offering them all up along with wishes for a relaxing weekend. I'm sure we'll be back next week with some more fun end-of-the-year news, notes and musings.

Oh, one thing I will add regarding # 5, The original LCD Soundsystem was very good. This version is better because "I got the Mothership over at my house" so kicks ass over "a tour bus and van at my house. I mean it's the MOTHERSHIP!" Also, I can't offer up #4 because I bought it on the iTunes and really, haven't you by now? Sea shantys are the shit! My other car is a fucking whale.
