Best Songs of 2007

While 2007 might not have been the best year for albums in the history of the world (more on that later this week), it was a very strong year for single tracks. Here are some of the songs I liked the most. There were some very difficult decisions, especially between multiple songs by the same artist, but I think it's a solid mix.

Nine of these tracks are from albums that aren't going to be on the year-end list later this week, either because they're on otherwise mediocre albums or are a part of an EP or single.

1. Spoon - The Underdog
