07 Pearl Jam 182
08 Mark Knopfler 175
09 U2 159
10 Placebo 153
10 Bloc Party 153

Normally I do the top 12, but there was a three-way tie for 12th this year.

1. Bob Dylan 919
2. Andrew Bird 385
3. Anaïs Mitchell 382
4. The Mountain Goats 302
5. Mark Knopfler 258
6. Yo La Tengo 183
7. Wilco 131
8. They Might Be Giants 108
8. Paul Simon 108
10. Sun Kil Moon 95
11. A. C. Newman 88
12. Elvis Costello 86
12. Los Lobos 86
12. The Lumineers 86

Here is last year's list, for comparison:

1. Bob Dylan 1094
2. Wilco 469
3. They Might Be Giants 396
4. The Mountain Goats 374
5. The Decemberists 234
6. Yo La Tengo 216
7. Paul Simon 203
8. Elton John 144
9. Yo-Yo Ma 127
10. Sun Kil Moon 127
11. Built to Spill 113
12. Bon Iver 111

Some things jump out at me: there are 7 artists on this year's list who weren't even on last year's, including numbers 2, 3, and 5. Also, last year all of the top 12 had more than 100 plays, while this year only 9 artists on the list hit that total. Finally, it's interesting that numbers 1, 4, 6 and 10 finished in identical spots to last year.
