The seasons are catching up with us. This 4th and final installment has various songs I liked from the
fall. Like the other sets, I'm only including songs that are
not part of my top 40 albums of 2009. Last bargain bin! Let's finish up the year!
Couldn't have had a better single. It's right up there with "Before He Cheats" as one of my favorite Carrie songs.
I didn't really get on board the
Crash Love bandwagon, but this AFI single was memorable nonetheless.
I can kinda appreciate that Rivers and Weezer are doing whatever the hell they want at this point. May as well!
Not really heard outside the gamer/WoW circles, but if you like Felicia Day, it's one hell of a guilty pleasure.
Not exactly a huge return to fame for Natalie Imbruglia, but still a pretty different electro-Euro-ish single for her.
Given my inexplicable emotional attachment to the city of New York, you can bet I really enjoyed this one.
The singles just kept coming from Beyoncé this year, and "Sweet Dreams" was by far the best if you ask me.
One of the most infectious alternative/electronic tracks I've heard all year; props to Gossip for making it.
The last of Black Eyed Peas, I promise. Come on Fergie, ditch those guys and make a rock album already.
Foo Fighters finally got their Greatest Hits album this year, and "Wheels" was a great companion track.
If you're a fan of The Postal Service, you might enjoy this blatant imitation. Did it win you over for a week, too?
I dunno what to make of this one. Leighton more-or-less talks the whole time, but it's terribly captivating.
Flyleaf would be one of the most boring bands on the planet if they didn't have Lacey. So, good job Lacey!
This fantastic collaboration produced one of the best videos of 2009. I can't wait for Charlotte's
IRM in 2010.
The album as a whole could use some work, but "Friday I'll Get Over U" is a decent first single for Allison.
Look, it's Paramore Jr.! I swear these kids look like they're 14, but hell if I didn't enjoy this infectious little song.
The Strokes' frontman recorded this wonderful cover of the hilariously great Christmas song from SNL.

Cover of the '80s benefit track. Andrew W.K., Tegan and Sara, David Cross, many more on this true gem.
That's it, the year's over! We're done! Time to celebrate! ... Wait, all this stuff was just bonus material? You mean I've still gotta do my entire top 40 albums now? Well then, guess I wasn't kidding about that "long road to #1" thing.
