Also Heavy Seas Of Love and Hollow Ponds are two very good tracks off Damon Albarn's new album to, I'd recommend a listen to both of them.
The Jungle one good too (SR not my cup of tea really but good for anyone who likes the latest Foals stuff I'd imagine)
Reservoir - Metronomy
Calm After The Storm - Common Linnets
What Is This Loneliness? - Deltron 3030 (ft. Damon Albarn)
Snap Out Of It - Arctic Monkeys
Happy Get Lucky - Pomplamoose
Best song I've heard for a long time.
Some fantastic, but haunting/disturbing lyrics within it...
And everywhere, I see a sea of empty pockets
Beautiful girls with eyes so dark within their sockets
Bombay Bicycle Club - Carry Me
Wild Beasts - Daughter
Arctic Monkeys - Arabella
East India Youth - Dripping Down
Metronomy - I'm Aquarius
Also Michael Jackson's love never felt so good! Is such a feel good song

Zombie - Jamie T
Noel Gallagher - in the heat of the moment
Off the top of my head, they're my favourites.
All about the base sounds like the little fatty singing it is singing 'bugger base' annoyingly catchy but not my thing
