The Ten Best Songs I Found on Top Ten Lists of 2011*

Another year, another list, and another bunch of stuff I haven't heard of or didn't get a chance to listen to.

So here's my chance to reconcile some 2011 listening while there's still some 2011 left.

I tried this last year and had a lot of fun with it, so here we go again with:

  "The Ten Best Songs I Found on the Top 10 Lists of 2011" 

To make the list, the songs have to be ones I hadn't heard before and sources must be named to pay the discovery process forward.

Disclaimer: Not all the lists are Top 10 lists, but you get the idea.
