It's been another spectacular year for music, but what were the highlights? Here's our pick of the 50 best songs of 2011. We also asked NME readers to vote for theirs - you can check out the readers' top 20 here.
One of three Metronomy tracks on our list, this first single, loping and luring, romanticises late nights, narcotics and sleep deprivation in earnest. ‘She Wants’ is like a slow-to-start pill that eventually crawls up your spine, seeps into your skin and then won’t let go.
