Top ten of 2003
Musically, the year started out rather slow, but things eventually picked up and I really feel that I came away with a lot of great records. If I had to pick a favorite album of 2003 it would probably be The Strokes’ Room on Fire.
- The Shins – Chutes Too Narrow
- Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Fever To Tell
- The Postal Service – Give up
- Zwan – Mary Star of the Sea
- The Strokes – Room on Fire
- Radiohead – Hail to the Thief
- The White Stripes – Elephant
- Ryan Adams – Rock N Roll
- Our Lady Peace – Live
- The Jayhawks – Rainy Day Music
Unfortunately, I was not able to see as many movies this year as I would have liked. A few that probably would have ousted others in this list had I seen them are: Angels in America, Spellbound, Thirteen, 21 Grams, Capturing the Friedmans, 28 Days Later, and Bus 174.
