To sum up the year now behind us I also created a Spotify playlist to go along with it. If you’re lucky enough to be using this fabulous piece of software go here to get it. If you’re not? Well here’s the tracklist. I have to admit I was much more of a track listener than usual in 2009, simply because playlists and mixtapes are the way to go when you play most of your music in the car. I even managed to find a few desirable tunes on the radio which is the only way to enjoy music while working in an office. 2009 had a lot of beauties to offer – hopefully 2010 will bring more!
