Ready to be Surprised. I know I am.

No. 2 Ke$ha's Warrior

Sure she flopped left and right. But does that take away anything from Warrior? Absolutely not. I wish she would be given the chance she truly deserves. This album is everything I hope for in a pop album. It's fun,light and carefree. I can just bop to it without having to worry about anything else in the world.
Favorite Songs: Supernatural, Die Young, Last Goodbye,C'Mon.

And the Album of the Year goes to.....

No. 1 The xx's Coexist

Sure it was a let down from their debut but I thoroughly enjoyed it. A bit too much considering how I am staying away from it for a while now. I still remember when Angels leaked before my exam and I started shaking.
Seeing them live truly made me further assure that they are legends to be. Even if they don't become one, I'll at least have these albums to BOP like no other.
Favorite Tracks: Chained, Fiction, Try, Angels.

Oooh, wait, I like all of those! (Okay, sans Norah's and Ports of Morrow, I haven't heard those)

An Awesome Wave is so nice, really great album! Glad you liked alt-J that much!
Master of My Make Believe is good, too, but not as good as her debut.
Electra Heart was my second favourite album of 2012, I loved it!
Visions and Shrines are great, too, especially Shrines! Red and Beacon are cute.
(III) is perfect from start to finish, I would've put it even higher, but it's your list after all, whatever.
I loved Halcyon and enjoyed Unapologetic quite a lot, too!
I only really use Wild from Bloom and Pyramids from channel ORANGE. Same for Warrior, I only really like the title track, which is just flawless, tough.
Coexist is great, but I prefer xx. It's deserving of a Top 5 spot, though!

Great list overall!
