I would have a tough time picking just 10 songs. So I will watch and listen.

I am too haunted by some dead bands to listen to a lot of current ones. Good 2009 albums which come to my mind are :
A woman a man walked by, PJ Harvey
À tout moment, Eiffel
Backspacer, Pearl Jam
A-Lex, Sepultura
And before even having tested it : IRM, Charlotte Gainsbourg. I know I'll like it since I like everything she does. Except that all the songs are duos with Beck. : pukingsmiley :
Note that I have not included The resistance in my list. I am improving !

Including the song Lemon Incest where she is rolling around in her panties in a bed with her dad? The video for that song disturbs me greatly. Maybe if I spoke French, it would not disturb me as much. Maybe it is about puppies and going to a ballet recital.

I found that album she did with Jarvis Cocker et all a bit dull. Couple of good tracks, but just a bit breathy and monotonous overall. However, I do think she is a sexy lady (especially in 'The Science of Sleep').
This year I liked Bill Callahan's return to being miserable!

I don't really listen to new music unless its given to me. I don't like to pay the excessively high prices for CDs, so... Mostly I just listen to XM and the CDs I collected through college.

Well, shit....
My speed-reading skills fail me again, as I thought this was a spin-off from Hooch's NME thread. BUT WAIT ! This could give a moderator true purpose and meaning to their life if they spun my posting into a separate thread for "Your Best Of 2000-2009".... just sayin'

No problem, take your time. Still a few weeks to go.
Just albums of 2009, please.
If you really can't come up with 10 albums, then reduce it to 5?
XMU is almost nothing but new music. You should spend some time there.
WARNING!!! most of the covers in this list are annoying!!!

Indie hipsters lately have been smitten with the Beach Boys. This band is no different, but I don't hold that against them.
Song I like:
4.
The xx - The xx
Make-out tape for shoegazers.
Song I like:
3.

2.
Micachu and the Shapes - Jewellery
Punk and hip-hop by a 20-something prodigy who makes her own instruments, even though she looks like a 13 year old boy that spends most of his time at the skate park and is considering becoming a vegetarian. But that just makes her more awesome.
Song I like:
1.
the Flaming Lips - Embryonic
Veteran hippy punk tripsters change direction. Again.
