Stick a Pitchfork in the year: Singles of 2005

Play it: Pitchfork top 50 singles of 2005

Pitchfork's annual list pre-empts my album list (I swear it's done... just finishing up the writing and html formatting bits.) This one runs down a crazy array of indie pop and indie rock, radio hits, B-sides and remixes, compilation and mixtape highlights, white label releases, and mind-blowing multi-part one-man soap operas (R. Kelly.) Leading the pack is Antony & the Johnson's "Hope There's Someone."

Tomorrow sees the highly anticipated (at least for me!) album list.

Mother of all year-end lists
