Stick a P'Fork in 2009: Top 100 Singles

One of my favorite items of the year is PFork's singles list, because it's so loooooong -- and I like 'em long, yo (scroll down for playlist).

Topping the list is Animal Collective's "My Girls," a song that nearly could've made last year's list -- having leaked over a year ago. Other songs we knew were locks for the top 10 (and albums likely as well) are Dirty Projector's "Stillness is the Move" (#2), two from Phoenix ("1901" at #3, "Lisztomania" at #8), Grizzly Bear's "Two Weeks" (#5) and Girls' "Lust for Life" (#9). It was a good year for music -- probably the best since 2003 -- and it shows.
