MIA is the only good pick for #1 on all of those lists

Ummm, because you are one of the few people that likes music for music. You have an opinion about almost every artist and seem to have taken the time listen to music that you don't even like. I would assume that this is to broaden your exposure, but it might just be so you can credibly talk shit about other peoples taste. I don't think any post goes unread here because you seem to check every one. Even if you are an ass, you have a valid opinion about most music and thats what music banter is about.

By the way, I think your taste in music sucks goat balls.

Goat Balls >>>>>>> Dragonforce. And Goat Balls is a band I formed just now that includes me and a fold-up chair in my closet.

Paper Planes is an okay song, summary of her career.

Predator

Dragonforce>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>A nything that ever existed. Don't be jealous that you aren't awesome enough to ......... well, I don't know, but Dragonforce is almost as awesome as Wylde Stalyons.

Not at all, all her songs are fairly horrible

But on topic, I was surprised to see that Okervil River got top spot on one of the list, as well as Panda Bear, which is good, for I really liked their album lots....but I don't think I've ever heard any music from LCD Soundsystem actually.

I would argue this but I still can't take you seriously after reading that first sentence.
