Wow, this is so tough I thought I would be much better prepared than last year but I've realised that my tastes differ so much depending on mood, time of day, weekday or weekend, whether the family are round me or when I'm alone, alcohol consumption, whether fish has been recently enjoyed , etc. etc.

I'm not as smart as Dave so the albums aren't ranked (you'll notice I cheated and went for alphabetical order ) but the ones in bold seem to have the highest play count. Here goes:

Duffy - Rockferry
K.D.Lang - Watershed
Laura Marling - Alas I cannot Swim
Lightspeed Champion - Falling Off The Lavender Bridge
Lonely Drifter Karen - Grass Is Singing
Sia - Some People Have Real Problems
The Indelicates - American Demo
Goldfrapp - Seventh Tree
Raconteurs - Consolers Of The Lonely
Kat Flint - Dirty Birds
The Mountain Goats - Heretic Pride

Al Green - Lay It Down
B52s - Funplex
Black Keys - Attack & Release
City & Colour - Bring Me You Love
Counting Crows - Saturday Nights and Sunday Mornings
Ida Maria - I Want You To Know That There Is Always Hope
Lenka - Lenka
Noah & The Whale - Peaceful, The World Lays Me Down
Queen & Paul Rodgers - The Cosmos Rocks
Seth Lakeman - Poor Man's Heaven
Sheerwater - Rook
The Last Shadow Puppets - The Age Of Understatement
The Notwist - The Devil, You & Me
The Verve - Forth
Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend

..... and because I'm a soft git my favourite Soundtrack is Juno (but that's largely because it's my favourite film of 2008)

Well sort of went for alphabetical in the bold section - not sure what went wrong there
