What was your favourite tune in 2007? There are a few contenders, but 'Intervention' by AF rocked me all year long.

'Young Folks' and 'Reckoner' and 'Face of the Earth' (by Joel Plaskett) come oh so close.

One of my favs was Linkin Park's "The Little Things Give You Away". What a song and what a closer for their latest lp Minutes to Midnight.

Mesmerizing live in concert, I will be seeing them at MSG in February. Got floor seats already!!!

Keren Ann's "Lay Your Head Down" tops my list (so far). In second place- and only recently- is "Caroline & I" by a local band, Kentucky Nightmare (and no, they're not a Kentucky band).
