Let's hear another record.

By way of Lots of Co. and Web Goddess, Pitchfork lists its Top 100 Singles of the Decade's First Half. (Strangely enough, I also received in the mail today a similarly themed mix-CD from a friend of mine in the program, and most of his choices also made the Pitchfork count.) At any rate, while I might quibble with the order here in certain places -- I haven't heard all of these by far, but I'd put 94, 82, 79, 63, 41, 18, 17 and, yes, 5 higher -- this list includes most of my favorites in recent years...and it's nice to see a countdown that doesn't sacrifice hip-hop and electronica at the altar of indie-rock cred.
