Top Albums of 2006 - III
Top Albums's of 2006: #14-11 edition
#14: Ill Lit - Tom Cruise
Ill Lit is another group I found out about by browsing through the ITunes music store bored one day, I highly suggest you do it too! I have found a ton of great stuff that way. Anyhow, I had never heard of Ill Lit before this year, but learned that they had put out 2 CDs previously. I listened to both and Tom Cruise is by far their strongest. I absolutely adore every track on this album, it's fantastic. After you get past the bizarre album title and give the CD a listen, I'm sure you will fall in love, just as I did.
Satan's Doing Fine Without Me
#13: Paolo Nutini - These Streets
Oh Paolo, how I love you so. I have made an entry about Paolo Nutini before, but you can never get enough. While his name may sound Italian, this young Irish songwriter is a huge hit overseas, and sadly hasn't made it over to the US just yet...yet being the key word. These Streets is by far my favorite pop album of 2006. Paolo makes fun and upbeat songs that put a smile on your face, and in the same light also makes some beautiful love-ridden tragedies. This guy is going to be huge, end of story.
Last Request
#12: John Mayer - Continuum
After being a fan of John Mayer for years, I was very excited to see how his 2006 release would pan out. Well, turns out it's my favorite John Mayer album, ever. While I loved John's old work on Inside Wants Out and Room for Squares, Continuum gave me faith that the days of "Your Body Is A Wonderland" were finally over. With influence from his John Mayer Trio work, this album was a joy to listen to....definitely one of my most listened to of the year. Keep it up Mr. Mayer.

#11: Damien Rice - 9
I'm not going to lie, I was a little sad my beloved Damien Rice didn't make a spot in my top 10 CDs this year. This man makes some of the most gorgeous music you'll ever hear...and 9 shows that to the fullest. Of course, it wasn't as good as the perfect O but it's still a gorgeous CD. 9 is filled with songs of anger and sadness, which seems to be Damien's specialty. I was floored when I first heard the current single "9 Crimes"...together him and Lisa Hannigan make some of the most heartbreakingly beautiful music I've ever heard. Damien's music never ceases to floor me, and 9 is a perfect example of that.
