Top 500 Songs Of 2009 - #400-#376

#400 Nine Inch Nails - "Not So Pretty Now" from NINJA 2009 Tour Sampler - With the band's recent "break-up" the singles released on the Ninja Tour CD might be the last we hear from Nine Inch Nails. You know, until they re-unite in a couple of years.

#399 Cancel The Astronauts - "I Am The President Of Your Fanclub (And Last Night I Followed You Home)" from Blalock's Indie Rock Playlist

#398 Music Go Music - "Reach Out" from "Expressions"

#397 The Thermals - "How We Fade" from "Now We Can See"

#396 Dolores O'Riordan - "Apple Of My Eye" from "No Baggage"

#395 The Dave Matthews Band - "Funny The Way It Is" from "Big Whiskey And The GrooGrux King" - "GrooGrux" is the best DMB album in a decade and this is one of the best songs on that album.

#394 Bear In Heaven - "Lovesick Teenagers" from "Beast Rest Forth Mouth"

#393 Marie Digby - "Feel" from "Breathing Underwater"

#392 Animal Collective - "Summertime Clothes" from "Merriweather Post Pavilion"

#391 White Lies - "The Price Of Love" from "To Lose My Life"

#390 Thao With The Get Down Stay Down - "Know Better Learn Faster" from "Know Better Learn Faster"

#389 Jay-Z - "Off That" from "The Blueprint 3"

#388 Alicia Keys - "Empire State Of Mind (Part II) Broken Down" from "The Element Of Freedom" - The rap version of the song charts much higher on this list, but the soul version is outstanding as well.

#387 Green Day - "Horseshoes And Handgrenades" from "21st Century Breakdown"

#386 Kid Cudi - "Heart Of A Lion" from "Man On The Moon"

#385 Great Northern - "Houses" from "Remind Me Where The Light Is"

#384 Wintersleep - "Oblivion" from Blalock's Indie Rock Playlist

#383 Regina Spektor - "Human Of The Year" from "Far"

#382 Crystal Stilts - "Love Is A Wave" from Blalock's Indie Rock Playlist

#381 Mika - "Blame It On The Girls" from "The Boy Who Knew Too Much"

#380 La Roux - "As If By Magic" from "La Roux" - 2009 was a big year for the Blondie-esque band that not only released a great album, but put a song on the pop charts, the much higher-ranking "Bulletproof".

#379 The Roots - "How I Got Over" from "How I Got Over" - Technically, the album this song is on came out in 2010, but it's been frequently delayed and I first came across this song in 2009. It may show up on both lists at the end of the day, but it's a great tune.

#378 King Khan And The Shrines - "Welfare Bread" from "What Is"

#377 Lisa Mitchell - "Coin Laundry" from Blalock's Indie Rock Playlist - It's surprising to say this in a year that featured a Belle And Sebastian project (God Help The Girl), but this is definitely the best twee song of the year.

#376 30 Seconds To Mars - "Kings And Queens" from "This Is War"
