#379 Crystal Bowersox - "Kiss Ya" from "Farmer's Daughter" - As usual, the wrong person won American Idol. If you're wondering, there won't be any Lee DeWyze music on the countdown, but there are a couple Bowersox songs, including this Etheridge-esque country rock song.

#378 Bruno Mars - "Runaway Baby" from "Doo Wops And Hooligans" - Bruno Mars continues his march through the countdown with another great R&B infused pop song.

#377 Titus Andronicus - "Titus Andronicus Forever" from "The Monitor" - It's amazing how good this song is considering it's basically one line repeated over and over, but that's Titus Andronicus for you.

#376 Los Campesinos! - "We've Got Your Back" from "Romance Is Boring" - Another day, another brilliant Los Campesinos! song that 99.999% of the world has never heard before makes the countdown.

#375 Brandon Flowers - "Only The Young" from "Flamingo" - "Only The Young" has a relatively slow build, but once it hits the chorus, Flowers nails down one of the better slow songs of his career.

#374 Parlovr - "Hell, Heaven" from "Blalock's Indie Rock Playlist" - Yet another great song that I never would have heard if not for Blalock's IRP. "Hell, Heaven" has a great guitar line and solid lyrics building to a great chorus.

#373 Surfer Blood - "Floating Vibes" from "Astro Coast" - An excellent lo-fi indie pop song with surf rock undertones.

#372 Kanye West - "Devil In A New Dress" from "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" - It's not as "in-your-face" as the other hits off of the album, but it's a great rap ballad with great lyrics.

#371 JP, Chrissie And The Fairground Boys - "Fairground Luck" from "Fidelity!" - JP and Chrissie trade lines on a ballad that would have done The Pretenders proud.
