Below is our pick of the ten best songs of the year - to view the full fifty head to NME.COM/PHOTOS.
How the voting works:
All NME writers submit their Top 20 Tracks. Everyone's Number One album gets 20 points, everyone's Number 20 album gets 1 point and so on. Whichever record gets the most points wins.
Simple.
That said, it's been a mixed twelve months of new music, ranging from the outstandingly good (Gang Gang Dance's 'House Jam' - unbelievably omitted from this list) to the excruciatingly bad (Glasvegas appear throughout the countdown).
Someone even voted for The Pigeon Detectives' 'This Is An Emergency' but we'll spare them the public lynching.
As you might have guessed, the list doesn't accurately reflect my own personal favourites - aggregates never do. Which is why we want you to comment with YOUR 2008 Top Tens below. We'll be playing some of the best on NME Radio over the festive period.
Anyway, here it is, the definitive and most accurate meta-crunching of the NME's writers' favourite tracks of 2008, in reverse order...
10 - Vampire Weekend : A Punk
Any chart-bothering Mellotron-propelled ditty about pueblo huts was alright by us this year.
If you liked that try: Dirty Projectors, Fela Kuti, Paul Simon
9 - Kings Of Leon : Sex On Fire
The crowning moment of the Kings' fourth album. Not least for the fact it knocked that spine-curdling Katy Perry drivel off the top spot.
If you liked that try: Fleet Foxes, The Wildbirds, Tom Petty
8 - MIA : Paper Planes
Gun shots, Clash samples and the jingle of a cash machine - what more did you need?
If you liked that try: Diplo, Buraka Som Sistema, Mpho
7 - Friendly Fires : Paris
Initially released this time last year but still going strong at the grand old age of 12 months.
If you liked that try: Apache Beat, Filthy Dukes, Midnight Juggernauts
6 - Metronomy : Heartbreaker
The creaky door synth weeping on this track pretty much epitomised Joe Mount's brilliant USP: the robotisation of emotion.
If you liked that try: Little Boots, Gallops!, Tom Vek
5 - MGMT : Electric Feel
When I interviewed them at CMJ 2007 (and Ben made me wait twenty minutes while he did a Number Two) none of us realised the full extent of what laid ahead.
If you liked that try: Amazing Baby, Chairlift, Empire Of The Sun
4 - MGMT : Time To Pretend
Second entry for the Brooklyn wizard heartthrobs, this quickly became the set text for a platoon of copycats.
If you liked that try: Kuroma, Boy Crisis, Sparks
3 - Mystery Jets : Two Doors Down
This tale of finding love over old Television records reached their highest chart placing yet - 24!!!
If you liked that try: GoodBooks, XTC, Pink Floyd
2 - Glasvegas : Geraldine
'Daddy's Gone' got to Number Two last year, now it's 'Geraldine''s turn. For anyone who considers a night out down the Feeling Gloomy club fun.
If you liked that try: Jesus And Mary Chain, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Raveonettes
1 - MGMT : Kids
The top spot: not bad for their first ever song written while the two were just "messing about".
If you liked that try: Of Montreal, Violens, Flaming Lips
Let us know YOUR Top Ten now!

Daddy's Gone by Glasvegas was released in 2007 and again in 2008, but is it OFFICIALLY "allowed" to be on 2008 list? I pick it, but if not, remove it, Geraldine (by Glasvegas, as opposed to Peter Kay's latest alias...) wins the poll, and Nude by Radiohead completes my as previously stated top 12 list. Sorted.

What a rubbish list! Apart from Time to Pretend, MSMT do very little for me. Cut Copy are far superior. I don't see any point in Glasvegas and don't get me started on Kings of Leon. Probably the worst band since Bon Jovi. The only decent song here is the MIA track and that wasn't even released this year. Get a grip NME! Where's 'Nothing Ever Happened' by Deerhunter, one of the best indie guitar anthems in years. What about the downright funky 'Golden Age' by TV on the Radio, and the monumental 'Machine Gun' by Portishead??

incredible that when people were releasing these kind of records in the 80's, you couldn't give a stuff and they were the lowest form of art ever pressed to vinyl. now you can't get enough. so was huey lewis 25 years ahead of his time, or are you lot 25 years behind? either way, im unimpressed.

mgmt are good, but no way should get three songs in the top ten. what about the subways?
i would have liked to see alright by subways in there, some raconteurs and melvins aswell.
p.s. some of the new slipknot and metallica stuff are even better than some of the songs on that list
