Please pick one song/your favorite song of '05. The song that would turn anyone on to that particular band. This might be many songs BUT please only one song off your favorite album of '05.

Hm, my fav album is Frances the Mute, but that hardly has any real songs on it.

I'll go with

The best song for me has no real contest. "A Nervous Tic Motion Of The Head To The Left" by Andrew Bird, imo, gives no chances, it's just an amazing song. The lyrics, the melody, the whistle, the pace.. I mean, everything about it seems perfect and it's EXTREMLY catchy.

Runners-up: "Music To A Nurse" by Oceansize and "John Wayne Gacy Jr." by Sufjan Stevens come to mind.

I'll say Wolf Parade - I'll Believe In Anything, I don't know if it would draw anybody else to Apologies To The Queen Mary, but it got me to buy the album.

sadly, while being good, the rest of the album doesn't live up to this song...

Probably going to agree with you. I'm just getting into Andrew Bird, but that song is fantastic.

I'll go with something nobody else has listened to, "Anjalee" by Lucero. I would agree with sloppy echo, though, on "A Nervous Tic Motion of the Head to the Left." It's extremely catchy.
