Over the last month or so‚ the collective enthusiasts of State of Mind have been posting the "Best Songs of 2012." Of course‚ we all know that "best" really means favorite‚ but shit‚ we're trying to kept up with the Jones on the interwebs and show our authoritative power when it comes to music -- the greatest of all the arts.
Here's the summary of the songs‚ in no particular order‚ by day we posted it. Have fun perusing and listening. And let's be thankful that the world didn't end and we have more great music to fill the air in 2013.
