Compilation of 2008

And so we wheel out the picture of the best album of 2008 for one last time, as I bring you my Compilation of 2008 – a CD of (mostly) sheer joy which I have imposed on some of my less fortunate friends over Christmas. The order was chosen to mix them all nicely into one another (seriously) although the best is saved until last.

• Perfect Symmetry by Keane from Perfect Symmetry (05:12)
