[...] Adrian (me): Candie Payne – All I Need to Hear (mp3) (buy) I’m going through various 2007 albums in preparation of to make my top albums of 2007 list. I was immediately intrigued by Candie Payne’s album but I hadn’t listened through it in a while. After I listened to it again this week, I was finding myself not pressing repeat on this song, as is often the case when I’m obsessed with a song, but playing/ singing it through in my head. Not even the whole thing, really, just the refrain: “just one little white lie/ just one little white lie/ is all I need to hear/ what harm can it do?”. There’s something more than just the words, melody and orchestration in those moments. There’s some desperation, some need coming through in her voice. [...]

Well, a few I did not see there (unless I did not look closely enough) that are sure to be in my top ten would be The Good the Bad and the Queen, MIA, and Of Montreal.

Dan, I’ll definitely add the Low album. I’ve heard some of the Mirah but either of the other two, which means I should check them out but they probably won’t be in consideration for the list.

Hi,

Not sure whether these are ‘obvious’, but if I were making I list, I would consider:

31 Knots “the days and nights of everything everywhere”
Low “Drums and Guns”
Mirah and Spectratone International “Share this Place”
Possible Selves S/T (may be 2006???)
