I voted for Newborn by Elbow. I'm not really a big fan of Elbow, but that song was released while I was really having a difficult time of things, and it encapsulated my mood perfectly. I bought the album, but I haven't been able to face listening to it since.

I'm frankly appalled that The Darkness and Bowling for Soup have made the top twenty though.
