Last week I unveiled my list of the best albums of the year, and this week I will continue with the 25 best songs of 2012. This is my last column for this semester. Unfortunately, due to my Erasmus trip to Estonia, I can't continue writing for Bilkent News next semester. Hope to see you in fall semester 2013. Good luck on your finals and have a great holiday.

P.S.: In order to keep up with music news, learn about some new musicians, have a look at some new music videos and read the album reviews I did for Bilkent News, you can follow my Tumblr account: masterkenobimusic.tumblr.com.
