To tide us over while we indulge in the holiday spirit gorging on stuffing and egg nog, we asked a bunch of musicians to tell us their thoughts on 2008. Some of them replied with lists of their favourite music, some told us their fondest memories and some came up with much more creative ways to commemorate this past year.
M83's Antony Gonzalez gave us his ten favourite albums of 2008:
1. Chairlift Does You Inspire You
2. MGMT Oracular Spectacular
3. Fleet Foxes Fleet Foxes
4. Vampire Weekend Vampire Weekend
5. Hercules and Love Affair Hercules and Love Affair
6. Cut Copy In Ghost Colours
7. No Age Nouns
8. Free Kitten Inherit
9. James Blunt All the Lost Souls
10. Sun Kil Moon April
