Again, the end of 2011 leaves me in the mood to make lists. Here are listed the songs I keep coming back to this year, not necessarily the most played, but my favorite. Some may be older than I am....
Life is a Highway - Tom Cochrane. This may be my life's anthem and the greatest song ever.

Soldier - Ingrid Michaelson. This song makes me feel, even at my age, that I can accomplish anything

You and Me - Elizabeth and the Catapault. Just love the groove.

Rainmaker - Harry Nillson. For the days when Life is a Highway is not the best song ever, this song is.

Dyamite - Taio Cruz. Because every time I hear it I think of hockey (either playing or spectating).

One Step Away - Ratt. Because I am true to my roots. And Ratt was a damn fine band.

Without Me - Eminem. A little because he is from Detroit. But mostly, because I dare you not to dance. Seriously. At least if you are over 18.

What's Victoria's Secret? - Rick Springfield. For too many reasons to name.

Beautiful, Dirty, Rich - Lady Gaga. Again, I dare you not to dance.

Walking in Memphis - Mark Cohn. Because we saw him in concert at The Ark this year and he is as funny as he is talented.

Seven Nation Army - The White Stripes. Because it has the best bass riff ever and because Michigan beat Notre Dame at football.

Tonight, Tonight - Hot Chelle Rae. See Taio Cruz. And The White Stripes. This song was also played at the greatest dance party ever (aka the Post-Game Celebration at Michigan Stadium after the 2011 Notre Dame Game).

Radio Nowhere - Bruce Springsteen. No good reason - just that this song always sounds like a good idea. And it always rocks.

I'll get the top-played songs of 2011 out soon. But I wanted to get this list of the songs I loved in 2011 out as well.
