I did not think I would make a year end list this year.
There have been far too many albums I’ve loved, and the task to pick 10 great ones seemed impossible. Another reason is that every year, I’ve used far too much time on the lists, and I don’t have that much time to spend on these things this year. It’s always frustrating to sit there for a long time and choose if this one’s better than that one, and to me it is a waste of time. But…. Our writer Sarah Wynona came up with a brilliant personal list yesterday, and suddenly I felt inspired.
I did not want to make a top10, but a list of ALBUMS I’VE LOVED IN 2007. Some of them may not be considered great or best of the year seen from a comparable quality viewpoint, but to me these albums are the ones that has meant most to me this year. It’s a long long long list, and I’m sorry that I haven’t commented or added albumart or links, but I’m sure you understand why I haven’t
.
Please comment if you see something you like or dislike here!
And… I did not want to rank any albums, but I’ve put the absolutely most loved ones in one list, and the very much loved ones in another list. Enjoy! (?)

uuh, den er indie! kender de fleste af navnene fra hypemaskinen, men må indrømme kun at have lyttet til halvdelen. men det ser fint ud med de navne, jeg kender.
ville også kort kvittere, og sige tak og i lige måde for en fin blog.
fortsæt med at køre god stil oppe i det norske!

indiepige » Takk for kommentaren! Jeg er selv en ivrig leser av Emodreng & Indiepige, og må takke dere for mange gode anbefalinger. Listen min er nok litt “indie”, ja, men det meste av musikken tror jeg er veldig lett tilgjengelig på alle måter. Ett dansk album rager blant årets aller beste for meg, – Efterklang. Fantastisk cd.
