Part of: Best Albums of 2008

The Journey Home” - Phil Keaggy, Phantasmagorical: The Master & The Musician II: This song is special to me because I feel like I can actually hear the narrative in the notes. This is as beautiful a melody as the masterful Keaggy has ever written. His lyrical touch and the superb flow of this song yearns to tell a story without words. It's impossibly beautiful.

Fix It” - Ryan Adams, Cardinology: I hate to say it, but Cardinology really didn't get it done for me as an album, but man, did I love this song. I listened to it 10 million times, at least. In this great little number, love is a game and our boyo Ryan isn't looking to play fair. He wants to fix the game. Love as game has been used countless times in music, but I like the idea of fixing the fight.
