this has been bugging me, but it now occurs that the solution is beautifully simple: this is a tracks poll, not an artists poll

Probably not going to nominate this for our poll, but Maryam Saleh, Maurice Louca, and Tamer Abu Ghazaleh's Lekhfa is worth a listen. Arab indie. I think I'm missing a lot in this case by not being able to understand the words.

Charlotte Dos Santos - Sumer Is Icumen In
is brilliant and needs attention. Not going to nominate it for the poll, I don't think, since I'll be voting for the album.

Great lists. Very happy to see some more love for Do It by Rae Morris. I only discovered it when Popjustice made it their single of the year. I've been obsessively watching the video since then.

re: monotony's list
I came around really late on the Sophia Kennedy album, and then promptly forgot to vote for it in the eoy poll (despite nominating it myself). Hope it places despite me.
I never heard that Nilüfer Yanya song before today, but it's marvelous.
