Song of the Week (2010):

A Kiwi shepherd I know friend of mine, who I met while serving at Camp Qwanoes (Christian Summer Camp) in Canada, doesn't listen to the radio. Instead, he seeks out music recommended by his friends, as he believes radio is often full of talking, ads, and rubbish.

I would (for the most part) agree. I don't listen to the radio, unless I'm at work... and (un)fortunately for me, Bunnings Warehouse Mile End have their own playlist of songs on their 'radio'.

Anyhow, back to the point of this post - every week, my friend from New Zealand picks a favourite song, worthy to be called 'Song of the Week' and adds it to his ever-growing list of 'SOtW'.

I've decided to do the same, as I thought it'd be interesting to see and follow where I've gone this year with what I've listened to. Plus, it'd be a sweet way to compile a decent, recent playlist if need be!

Let me know if you do the same, and I'll investigate the music you've appreciated this year as well. The list shall be edited and updated, and found below. Enjoy!
