Back in the day, when I had time in my life to do things I enjoyed, I used to put together compilations of what I thought was the best collection of singles released that year.

I thought I'd try and revive that tradition this year, and this is the shortlist so far:

Camera Obscura - "French Navy"
Stornoway - 'Zorbing'
Arcade Fire - Ready to Start
The National- Bloodbuzz Ohio
Cherry Ghost - A Month Of Mornings
GREAT BRITAIN - dan le sac Vs Scroobius Pip
Two Door Cinema Club - Undercover Martyn
DELS - Shapeshift
The Heavy - How You Like Me Now?
I Am Kloot - Northern Skies
Foals - Spanish Sahara
Crystal Castles Celestica
!!! Chk Chk Chk - Jamie, My Intentions Are Bass
Massive Attack - Paradise Circus
Broken Record - A Darkness Rises Up
Kings of Leon - Radioactive

Any thoughts? Can you suggest anything I've missed, what would be your highlights in terms of singles (that have been released) this year?

Mark Ronson: Bang Bang Bang is glaring omission in the "Now this is what boyfold calls music" double cassette album.

I'd also add:

Gorillaz - Superfast Jellyfish http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4UtbrbsrjY
Groove Armada - Paper Romance http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74cQF2ebgOM
Vampire Weekend - White Sky (Basement Jaxx Remix) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUT1o3DLi6M&fea...
Delorean- Stay Close http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QngeN-5wGQ
Underworld - Scribble http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHs8LxPepKU

Couple of good ones there, I'll get reviewing them and add them to the shortlist! I like the name of the album though, I might just use it!

Also forgot these:
Simian Mobile Disco - Cruel Intentions (feat. Beth Ditto)

and

Hot Chip - I Feel Better
