    I'm so out of touch with music these days but I'll do my best:

    Song: The Cave - Mumford and Sons (is that a 2010 song, album is 2009 but think it was a single this year?), alternatively Kiss Your Lips - Allo Darlin', or anything off The Suburbs by Arcade Fire.

    Album: The Suburbs - Arcade Fire

    Live: Only went to 2 gigs this year, but I'll go for The Eels at the Birmingham O2 which I enjoyed marginally more than Arcade Fire at the LG in Birmingham (NEC) but both were great.

    BBCodeGig- Depeche mode at the O2 tour of the universe gig not everyones taste but still 1 of the best live bands this country has produced.

    Boogica... if not the best live band this country has ever produced. I have given up trying to sell this one but take much pleasure in the fact that I and others like you know this! Seen them so many times and they still make my life better!

    Anyway, best gig for me for sure is James at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver...600 or so people turned up in this real cool and small venue. James are still bloody amazing...their new stuff well worth a listen. The gig was brilliant, people dancing on stage, Tim Booth walking around in the audiance.

    I do like "the cave" by Mumford

    Get back to you on the album front but "morning after the night before" by James is a really good cd.

    Definitely this for me
    Album: probably Arcade Fire
    Gig: Supergrass farewell at Brixton, was probably more sentimental than anything else although the format they used was good for it.

    Plan B's album is by far the best album of the year. Impossible to believe the same foul-mouthed heap of vulgarity (a genuine work of genius) that was his first album was the made by the same beatifully soulful voice of the 2nd LP

    Green Day at Wembley were very good although they are not the same Green Day I saw set fire to a drum kit about 12 years ago
