2013 Faves, Part 2 (#70-#41)

OK, that first batch is out of the way. This next set will work through to the top 40. While compiling this list, it has come to my attention that I really dig Swedish artists. At least three times this past year, I've really latched on to a song by someone I was unfamiliar with and after doing a bit of research, found that they were Swedish. I almost expect 50% of all new artists I'll hear about this next year will come from Lund, Uppsala or (if I'm really lucky) Örebro. Feel free to play the "guess who's Swedish?" game on these pages.

PS. It seems that Soundcloud is finicky when too many embedded frames are showing on the same page. If some of the embeds aren't playing, make sure you click on one of my posts directly (e.g. Part 1 OR Part 2) on the right menu to limit the number of displayed links. You'll be much happier if you do.
