This is always the hardest thing to do. It is incredibly hard to pick out 5o songs and label them the best of the best. How hard is it? I listened to 9009 songs from 2010 according to my Itunes. And to pick the top 50 really is impossible. Undoubtedly I left off some great songs, but if you are on this list, know that you made a very positive impression on me with your music and congratulations.
I have attached links so that you can listen to these songs. I have used official and unofficial You Tube videos for the sole purpose of putting people onto the music. I also used Bandcamp where appropriate. If you have suggestions, comments, or questions please feel free to drop me a line.
