Best Songs of 2008: No. 16

'Let It Fall,' Lykke Li

In Sweden, indie pop seems to grow on trees, with leaves falling on just about every music blog, either in the form of empty hype or as well-deserved praise. Lykke Li's 'Let It Fall' lands in the latter category, thanks to her wispy voice precariously riding the track's minimalist funk. Thanks for that go in no small part to producer Bjorn Yttling (of Peter Bjorn and John) who co-wrote the song with Li. Oh, Lykke, you had us at "Swede."
