Is this a recognisable 2006? Not if yr a Brit voter, most probably. (EDIT: I stand corrected, yrs Grandad.) I'm not sure I've ever heard TV on the Radio (who topped the JP albums list).

oddly enough I found that I loved a lot of indie-ish singles this year but didn't find myself as enamoured of the album as a whole (The Gossip, CSS, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Amy Winehouse to an extent) whereas a lot of big pop albums I loved as albums as well as loving their singles (Beyoncé, Paris, Justin, Cassie, Ciara) and in some cases more than their singles (Kelis, Fergie). The exception is Nelly F's album which doesn't work so well as an album BUT is a pretty awesome disparate-singles-on-one-CD item.
