2010 Song of the Year

“Wake Up” by Arcade Fire. If you saw the preview for “Where the Wild Things Are” you’re familiar with this song. I’d like to share the lyrics with you because they’re powerful poetry:
“Children wake up,
Hold your mistake up,
Before they turn the summer into dust.
If the children don't grow up,
Our bodies get bigger
But our hearts get torn up.
We're just a million little gods causin' rain storms
Turnin' every good thing to rust.
I guess we'll just have to adjust.”
