TIME decided to provide a top ten list for just about anything you can think of.
Some highlights and observations:
- Our previous president, despite his ability to sound pretty awkward while speaking, had the top quote of the year – a very eloquent and noble quote at that.
- U2’s “No Line on the Horizon” has the number three song of the year. In the clip they provide, Bono sound very strange as he says to the band, “Lets go fellas . . .”
- Out of that massive list, I didn’t see anything about top ten tours, concerts or live acts of the year, which U2 surely would have made the top five.
- A cover of Texas Monthly made the number three magazine cover of the year. The magazine usually has some great covers, but I wasn’t as impressed as they were with their pick.
- Friday Night Lights comes in at number seven for the Top 10 TV Series. Thank goodness DirecTV and NBC was able to save this show. I felt it was important for the show to finish last season, so this season is nothing but gravy for me. Lost comes in at number six btw.
