Media of the Year

[vovat]

Okay, back by popular demand [1], here are my lists of the media in which I partook in 2007.


Albums of 2007:
1. Erin McKeown - Sing You Sinners
2. Carolyn Mark - Nothing Is Free
3. They Might Be Giants - The Else
4. Rasputina - Oh Perilous World
5. Tori Amos - American Doll Posse
6. Black Francis - Bluefinger
7. Rufus Wainwright - Release the Stars
8. Rilo Kiley - Under the Blacklight
9. The New Pornographers - Challengers
10. Erin McKeown - Lafayette

And while I didn't think it quite fair to rank these with the regular music albums, I'm also giving honorable mention to these three:

The Simpsons - Testify
Michael Ian Black - I Am a Wonderful Man
Michael Showalter - Sandwiches and Cats

Albums from previous years that I first heard in 2007:

4. Stephin Merritt - Showtunes
5. Spice Girls - Spiceworld
