Ugh! I’m trying not to get another one of my Favorite Songs of 2008 posts stricken down by the nefarious DMCA, so I have begun to speak in code. Discodust found out that whenever a certain artist’s tracks were upped on the interwebs, the associated post is almost always deleted by the DMCA Bandits. The machines have taken over, we have been forced underground. So don’t be confused by that certain artist’s name, I’m sure you can figure it out.
On the post taken down yesterday, I lamented the fact that I forgot to include Everyone’s Got To Make A Living by Dances With White Girls on my favorites of ’08 list. Ask my roommate, this song ruled my life for about four days and annoyed the shit out of him. I won’t go back and amend the list but it would not be fair unless I posted Everyone’s Got To Make A Living here and here. Enjoy the rest of the best below.
