#80 Them Crooked Vultures - "Dead End Friends" from "Them Crooked Vultures"
#79 Band Of Skulls - "Light Of The Morning" from "Baby Darling Doll Face Honey" - Yes, it's the song from the car commercials and no, it's not a cover as far as I know.
#78 Cage The Elephant - "In One Ear" from "Cage The Elephant" - I saw these guys open for Stone Temple Pilots and they put on one hell of a show. This song hit #1 on the Modern Rock charts in 2010 and they're definitely a band on the rise.
#77 The Avett Brothers - "I And Love And You" from "I And Love And You"
#76 Mos Def - "Quiet Dog Bite Hard" from "The Ecstatic" - The best rap vocal of 2009, "Quiet Dog Bite Hard" is one of the best hip hop songs in recent history.
#75 Kid Cudi - "Pursuit Of Happiness" from "Man On The Moon" - Kid Cudi gets some help from MGMT on his best song.
#74 The Thermals - "I Called Out Your Name" from "Now We Can See"
#73 Muse - "Uprising" from "The Resistance" - One of the most popular songs of 2009 (who would think we could say that about Muse?), this song has been everywhere for the past 18 months, from soundtracks to television commercials.
#72 The Thermals - "When We Were Alive" from "Now We Can See"
#71 The Handsome Furs - "Talking Hotel Arbat Blues" from "Face Control" - It seems like every couple years there's an awesome song that sort of bites that John Cafferty song "Darkside". This year it's "Arbat", which is obscure, but still brilliant.
