10 (and 20) Things We Rate About... 

Before we take a look ahead at what 2007 has in store, let's take one final look back at 2006 in the shape of our top ten albums and top twenty singles of the year, as compiled for Sweeping the Nation and Stylus Magazine respectively:-

The Top Ten Albums
  1. The Pipettes - We Are the Pipettes
  2. The Research - Breaking Up
  3. Long Blondes - Someone to Drive You Home
  4. Luke Haines - Off My Rocker at the Art School Bop
  5. My Latest Novel - Wolves
  6. Pet Shop Boys - Fundamental
  7. Sparks - Hello Young Lovers
  8. Muse - Black Holes and Revelations
  9. Jarvis - The Jarvis Cocker Record
  10. Be Your Own Pet - Be Your Own Pet
The Top Twenty Singles
  1. The Pipettes - Pull Shapes
  2. The Research - Lonely Hearts Still Beat The Same
  3. Wigwam - Wigwam
  4. Girls Aloud - Something Kinda Ooooh

  17. Jamie T - Sheila
  18. Nelly Furtado - Maneater
  19. Hot Chip - Boy From School
  20. The Blood Arm - Suspicious Character
As always, our general incompetence means there's some glaring omissions - most notably Love is All from the albums and Muse's Supermassive Black Hole from the singles - but even so, going out and purchasing everything mentioned above is guaranteed to make your life immeasurably culturally richer, albeit poorer in the slightly more real and tangible financial sense.
