The Top 500 Songs Of 2012 - Part 17 of 50, #340-#331
#340 Point Reyes - "Golden" from "Blalock's Indie Rock Playlist" - I'm sure there's a link on youtube, but all my youtube searches focused on the actual Point Reyes, rather than the band.
#339 Purity Ring - "Obedear" from "Shrines" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETbGpGJNVLM
#338 Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - "Only In My Dreams" from "Mature Themes" - For a modern band, APHG often has a sound that seems to be straight out of the late 60's or early 70's. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta46M5rksBk
#337 Alanis Morissette - "Numb" from "Havoc And Bright Lights" - She's still around, making one or two great songs per album. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wB3ahfKQJc
#336 Aerosmith - "Luv XXX" from "Music From Another Dimension" - A huge improvement over previous efforts this past decade, as the band seems to be getting a little of their bad-ass attitude back. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2R4S8r3gBr4
#335 Benjamin Gibbard - "Teardrop Windows" from "Former Lives" - No Death Cab album this year, but the Gibbard solo project is a solid substitute. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90ocplIH7I4
#334 Amanda Palmer And The Grand Theft Orchestra - "Melody Dean" from "Theatre Is Evil" - This song should have been much higher. The chorus alone merits consideration for the top 100. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4G6duM-54mc
#333 Jimmy Fallon - "Tebowie" from "Blow Your Pants Off" - Oddly enough, I'm posting this ranking (for a song originally recorded years ago, but only released on an album now) a few days after Tebow's NFL career basically ended when the Patriots cut him. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09T8AUspQN0
#332 Todd Snider - "In The Beginning" from "Agnostic Hymns And Stoner Fables" - An athiest songwriter known for his sense of humor explains his take on the origin of organized religion. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HK7b1FL5yE8
#331 Stephen Lynch - "Tennessee" from "Lion" - I think this is the top song on the countdown that could be described as purely comedic, as Stephen Lynch uses his sincere-adjacent style to rip the holy hell out of a state that he seems to hate with a fiery passion. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Nl3iT_lRjw
#339 Purity Ring - "Obedear" from "Shrines" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETbGpGJNVLM

The Top 500 Songs Of 2012 - Part 16 of 50, #350-#341
#350 Jack White - "Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy" from "Blunderbuss" - How awesome is it that Jack White and Flight Of The Conchords share the same pun in their song titles? - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glNP2N74ih0
#349 Mumford And Sons - "Below My Feet" from "Babel" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHnGJvYmQKg
#348 Bob Dylan - "Duquesne Whistle" from "Tempest" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mns9VeRguys
#347 Phillip Phillips - "Drive Me" from "The World From The Side Of The Moon" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tufkbvbEVHY
#346 Amanda Palmer And The Grand Theft Orchestra - "The Killing Type" from "Theatre Is Evil" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhFsKCF56xU
#345 Donald Fagen - "Weather In My Head" from "Sunken Condos" - The lead singer of Steely Dan's 2013 album could easily have been the latest album by the legendary band, as proven by this classic. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxvcTxdC1xw
#344 Shooter Jennings - "Manifesto No. 4" from "Family Man" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdggUGLp-QM
#343 Serj Tankian - "Occupied Tears" from "Harikari" - Tankian's solo music is rock solid, but I and many other heavy metal fans are still holding out for a new System Of A Down album, as Serj Tankian and Daron Malakian have released a number of solo projects, but definitely need each other to achieve greatness. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Qtyw84F5DM
#342 The Enemy - "Like A Dancer" from "Streets In The Sky" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeU2eRPmbMI
#341 Bahamas - "I Got You Babe" from "Blalock's Indie Rock Playlist" - Not a cover of the Sonny And Cher classic, but an excellent original song on it's own. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prkVYD4Whg0
#349 Mumford And Sons - "Below My Feet" from "Babel" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHnGJvYmQKg
