Click below to see Part 2 of my list of the best music of 2013:
Artist: Alice Smith
Album: She
Highlights: "Ocean" and "The One"
Artist: Avicii
Album: True

I know "Wake Me Up" is the big hit, but it sounds like an electronic hoedown to me. Electronic hoedown is something that should not exist. I like these other songs better.

"Yeah Yeah" is that song that has been in every commercial this year.
Honorable mention to these songs:
- "Horns Surrounding Me" by Julia Holter - Totally insane song
- "Can't Live With The World" by Laura Mvula
- "Harlem" by New Politics - My other favorite song of the year.
- "Canoe" by Small Black
- "Bang Bang" by will.i.am - It is a ridiculous song were will.i.am samples The Charleston and attempts to scat, but I can't help loving it's cheesiness.
