As expected with any list of its nature, our rundown of the Decade's 50 Most Important Recordings has drawn both praise and criticism, particularly from diehard fans of artists and albums that didn't make the cut. Here are just a few, chosen by the reviewers who lobbied for them.

I'm glad to see Bjork's Vespertine on the list. A masterpiece.

Indie isn't a genre any more than alternative was, but it denotes something important about the music in its tent -- where it came from, where it might go. Tell us what you think the word "indie" means to music today.

One of this years best CDs is from the Brooklyn-based band The Antlers. The band recently went into the New York studio known as The Orchard and recorded a new version of one of the album's standout tracks, "Sylvia." Preview it now on our blog.

The gift that modern digital technology has given pop music is the ability to fix every nagging inconsistency in a recording, note by note and beat by beat. If you hear a contemporary mainstream rock record, you're almost certainly hearing something that has been digitally nipped and tucked and buff...

How has the decade made fans more obnoxious at concerts? Share your horror stories of viewing an entire show through someone's cell phone screen, getting yelled at for crashing the taper section, or being guilted into buying merch because you downloaded the album for free.

OMG the people at the Smokey Robinson concert several years ago were obnoxious. Haven't been to one since. I shudder to think.

I don't think I've ever discovered a band from commercials. Aside from baseball, though, I do almost all of my tv watching via Netflix.

What Jay Farrar and Jeff Tweedy hatched in the 90s spawned the most important discovery of the decade: American Folk Revival. From Mermaid Ave to Seeger Sessions to O, Brother to Conor Oberst to Dylan's best album in 20 years. When we could have gone anywhere through technology we went back, explored our roots, and grew something new out of familiar soil.
