| 2005. Bjork's Drawing Restraint 9 was weird. Green Day's When September Ends was played everywhere. So was Madonna's Hung Up song, which featured a total rip from an ABBA song. However, concert highlights for me this year included Alice Cooper (awesome), Moby (again), and Breaking Benjamin! Not bad at all. |

| 2005 TOP 10 ALBUMS |
| |
| |
 | Remember The Name, Right Now, and Kenji are my favorites. A great album to blast when I'm out driving in my car!
|
|
| |
 | What an amazing album! It's hard to pick a favorite because every song is amazing. I particularly like the last song called The Passage. Boy Hits Car at their finest. Their first two albums were so good.
|
|
| |
 | Classic Moby. Play will always be his best, but his Hotel days are just as good.
|
|
| |
 | The National can do no wrong! Hard to pick a favorite - they're all so good.
|
|
| |
 | Back when their website had ripple animations that were so cool to play with! I loved that design. The Art Of Breaking, Move, Hand Grenade, and Breathe You In are their best on this album.
|
|
| |
 | This whole album is really good but my favorite track is When I. It's really mellow and relaxing to listen to.
|
|
| |
 | A bit folk, but very enjoyable.
|
|
| |
 | I would listen to this album a ton getting out of yoga class, it's that relaxing!
|
|
| |
 | Loved By You and The Best Thing are great tracks. What a fun, silly band! Reminds me of a female version of the Bloodhound Gang. They've toured with Marilyn Manson, too.
|
|
| |
 | Wonders Never Cease and Ten Men are great! The rest of the album is pretty good too!
|
|
| |
| 2005 HONORABLE MENTIONS |
| |
| |
 | The decline of Alice Cooper, Dirty Diamonds was just okay.
|
|
| |
 | My Doorbell is a great song!
|
|
| |
 | Beverly Hills was played a lot on the radio! But this album's just okay. Weezer's earlier albums were way better.
|
|
| |
 | The Last Living Souls is a cool track.
|
|
| |
 | No Surprise, Santa Monica, Quiver, Better Off, and Me And My Girl are my favorite tracks! These guys toured with Breaking Benjamin which was fun to see!
|
|
| |
 | My favorite songs include Hold Your Head Up, City Don't Sleep, and of course the Bush Song. A great collection of fun, often humorous hip hop tracks!
|
|
| |
 | Roisin Murphy of Moloko fame is amazing, but this album was just eh. Overpowered was way better!
|
|
| |
 | Why Do You Love Me was played so much this year! Bad Boyfriend was played a lot too. Overall a pretty decent album.
|
|
| |
 | Porn Sword Tobacco, a funny name for a DJ, but relaxing stuff to listen to indeed!
|
|
| |
 | Beck's Que Onda Guero is classic Beck. This album was pretty good overall.
|
|
| |
 | The Hand That Feeds was played a lot on the radio! The rest of the album was meh. Only is a great track, though.
|
|
| |
 | Jamiroquai's older stuff is the best, but this one was pretty good too!
|
|
| |
 | Probably my least favorite Clawfinger album, but hey, even the bad Clawfinger albums still kick ass!
|
|
| |
 | Maximo Park was so much fun to play on SSX On Tour on my PSP. The album is great too!
|
|
| |
 | Galvanize is an awesome track!
|
|
| |
 | A Baltimore-based band, I was happy to have seen them live open for They Might Be Giants. They were better!
|
|
| |
 | Fallen Angels is a great track. Their cover of Every Little Thing was just okay.

| |
 | Hide and Seek! Enough said…
