Since these sorts of lists can often wind up quite different than a "favorites" or "best" list (and sometimes can even help you shape your list), I thought it would be interesting to share our most listened to artists of the year.
If you have Last FM, this is quite simple to acquire this info with the "Last 12 months" tab for your artists or songs. If not, you can attempt it less scientifically with your music player's play counts or flat out guessing.
Here are my top 10 artists based on total listens:
(Very closely followed by Four Tet, Radiohead, Beach House, Vampire Weekend, and Okkervil River)
I may include songs later. Let's see everyone else's lists!
