I only included albums I'd added in 2008 (so they could be older, but they're new for me in 2008) and added up the Play Count of all songs on each album. (I love pivot-tables.) Here's the list:
1. Hanne Hukkelberg - Little Things
2. Portishead - Third
3. Duffy - Rockferry
4. Katie Melua - Piece By Piece
5. Lhasa de Sala - The Living Road
6. Martha Wainwright - I Know You're Married But I've Got Feelings Too
7. Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes
8. Oh Laura - A Song Inside My Head, A Demon In My Bed
9. Gnarls Barkley - The Odd Couple
10. Laura Marling - Alas I Cannot Swim
Observations:
- The top 6, and 8 of the top 10, are female singers
- Fleet Foxes is the only album still in active rotation on my playlists (will likely keep climbing)
- Just outside the top 10 (#14) is Frida Hyvönen's Silence is Wild, which I'm still playing a lot. Had it come out earlier in the year it may have cracked the top 5
- At the beginning of the year I'd only heard of three of these artists (Portishead, Lhasa de Sala and Gnarls Barkley)
