Top Tracks of 2012

Well, no post in over a year.  No good excuse for the long hiatus but an end of the year list is a good enough reason to break the cycle.  Instead of the traditional top 10/20/50/100 list, here are a bunch of songs that resonated with me in 2012 - no order, just placed into random groups at the last minute.
