10. Sigur Ros: 'Hoppipolla' (2005) - Icelandic for 'jumping in puddles' 'Hoppipola', seemed to take over the world when it was released in 2005. The atmospheric song appeared everywhere from the background of sporting events to David Attenborough's Blue Planet and even Hollywood movies. No surprise really, the song (sung in the fictional language Vonlenska) is a rousing yet delicate anthem that sounds at times monumental but always fragile and soft. Proof if ever it were needed that doing things in a unique and beautiful manner will always pay the highest dividends.

- Well deserved Idioteque first place. That song never gets old, truly fantastic and inovative, even almost ten years later. Reckoner - from In Rainbows - deserved to be in the top 10 IMO. And great to see Seven Nation Army on the list, great song.

- Yay for Midlake's Roscoe!! SUCH a great song.
