My favorite twenty songs over the past 5 years

Why five years and not six or seven? I guess it's just a nice easy number. Although I'm a little bummed some very good music was released in years prior to 2009. Anyway this is just a little fun sentimental look back at some of the tunes that blew me away. These songs had some sort of significant impact on me whether it was emotional, spiritual, musical or inspirational. It may even spill over to a couple of honorable mentions. There was a ton of great music over the past few years but just for kicks, here's my list. Songs are randomly chosen not by favorites.
