As 2007 winds to a close, we feel personally responsible for ushering the year's gems straight to your ears and eyes. And among the latest making the cut: 15 songs ranging from Imani Coppola's newfound punk sonic on "Woke Up White," to the dreamy "Like I Do" from Minipop, to the '80s grooves of Sam Sparro's "Black and Gold." Tunes from Birds of Avalon, Georgie James, and A Place to Bury Stranger, among others, also appear on our list. And don't forget the videos: Handsome Furs, Spoon, Hangar 18, and Animal Collective all show with must-see dual-sensory experiences.
