Best song(s) of 2013?

So I noticed there was a thread titled "worst songs of 2013" so I decided to make this one.

I was just wondering what you guys think the best song(s) of 2013 was/were? :smile:

AryaStark, I hope you don't mind :smile:

the gathering - areas, barenfels
deafheaven - vertigo
anneke van giersbergen - shooting for the stars, treat me like a lady, mental jungle, we live on
my bloody valentine - in another way, new you
voices - eyes become black
suffocation - cycles of suffering
satyricon - phoenix

a few that come to mind. Areas is the best IMO

The Mother We Share by Chvrches and My Song 5 by Haim are pretty stand out to me. The new Franz Ferdinand album was pretty nice too, I liked Treason! Animals. from that one. Woodkid's album was pretty special, the Great Escape and Run Boy Run were great. The Relient K album was disappointing but Collapsible Lung (the title song) was up there with their best stuff, I think.

2013 was such a good year for me, I didn't want it to end! You might not have heard of these songs so I thought I should include links. Arcade Fire was probably the most mainstream track I liked in the year, it would have looked odd to not include a link for it.

Likewise, I've got all of their albums: Up All Night; Take Me Home and Midnight Memories. :smile:

Including the relevant singles that have been released. :smile:

I would say that Best Song Ever was their best this year. One Way Or Another, and Story Of My Life are also very good. :smile:

I ahven't listened to the whole of Midnight Memories album yet, but the song Midnight Memories, is also very good and I have been listening to that recently. :smile:

Repped for presenting your post in this way (the best way) instead of just spamming by embedding a ton of videos into the page that nobody ever listens to like everyone does and ends up slowing the page down.

If people want to hear the tune they'll click the link which goes directly to Youtube anyway.

Ah thanks. I felt I had too many songs to embed so went for the linky approach. I hope people chose to click the links and find something they hadn't heard before :smile:
