    Of all the records on this list that I have now been listening to (that I previously missed), The xx has been my favorite.

    I keep hearing good things about The xx; I guess I'll have to check it out. I'm kinda surprised with Bird taking the No. 1 album. Not that I thought it was a bad album, just thought it was average.

    I was surprised by the Bird as well. It came out in January and must have had staying power. I do love that disc though and considering he makes music like no one else out there its deserving.
