What a magnificent/innovative/predictable/dull year it's been for music! (We thought we would give you the option of ringing your preferred adjective to describe music in 2007, seeing as many of our readers are disagreeing with the results of their own music poll as we write.)
For us, since you ask, it's been pretty magnificent. GU Music has bantered with Bat for Lashes, fumed with Foals and laughed with LCD Soundsystem and Les Savy Fav. Sorry, we'll stop all the awful alliteration now.
So, to round off our first 12 months of podcasting, we've stitched together a show consisting of all the best bits of the year past. It's a bit like those episodes of Friends where they all go around "remembering things" about when they first met etc etc.
We have clips from past shows with Billy Bragg, the Cribs, Tom Findlay from Groove Armada, Jose Gonzalez, the Black Lips and more. There's also a round up of Rosie's favourite singles of the year which includes Dan Deacon and Robyn (whose profanity laden interview features in the show too).
Last, but under no circumstances whatsoever should you think about applying the word 'least', Malcolm Middleton - friend of the show and a v popular guest back in the summer - returns to the pod to give us an acoustic blast of his Xmas number one contender, the euphoric We're All Going To Die.
If we've missed your favourite show, we're sorry, but why don't you tell us what we missed and why you loved/hated it? And what singles stuck in your head throughout 2007?
