Favorite Songs of 2011

Not an exhaustive or complete list by any means given that these are the "Favorite Songs of 2011" as I'm recalling them on the last few days of the year, but it's at least fairly representative.

Where an artist had an entire album that could have been listed as a favorite, I tried to list an alternate song from ones I had previously posted earlier in the year.

Here's to doing a better job of documenting favorites in the New Year.  Cheers!
