6. Yeah Yeah Yeahs: 'Maps' (2004) - Prior to this moment Karen O and Yeah Yeah Yeah's were best known as being a trashy sexed-up trio of New York art rockers. 'Maps' showed a different side to the band though revealing an emotional and gushing middle. An ode to Karen O's ex, Angus Andrew of the band Liars, it documents the heartbreak she suffers when he spends months away on tour. Now firmly established as a fans' favourite 'Maps' was the moment Yeah Yeah Yeahs gained a third dimension and by revealing their own aching hearts earned a place in ours.

- What about Stronger by Kanye West?
- That was a Daft Punk song with some crappy lyrics over it.
- F#ck off with all your Radiohead!!!
- Well deserved Idioteque first place. That song never gets old, truly fantastic and inovative, even almost ten years later. Reckoner - from In Rainbows - deserved to be in the top 10 IMO. And great to see Seven Nation Army on the list, great song.
- Yay for Midlake's Roscoe!! SUCH a great song.
