We’ve seen the lists of the best albums of 2008 – but what do the singers like?

“We’re all big fans of Coldplay, and their Viva la Vida is a great record. We got to meet Chris Martin recently, and it was amazing. Also, Adele. She’s nominated for a Grammy against us, but she’s incredible too.”Nick Jonas told MTV. Didn’t Adele recently slam them by saying they weren’t virgins?

Katy Perry couldn’t pick just one, two or three but four different albums she enjoyed, “My favorite album of 2008 would have to be Estelle‘s Shine. She’s one of my favorite artists. Yelle is probably my favorite artist this year. She’s French, and it’s kind of a bit avant-garde, but it’s fun. I loved the Lenka album too. Oh, and the John Legend album! Oh, so good! My favorite song of this year … I like that ‘Come Over’ song Estelle did with Sean Paul.”

Lead singer of Paramore; Hayley Williams revealed a song that’s close to her heart. “There was a song on the new H₂0 record, called Nothing to Prove, and the song is called ‘Disconnected’ — though that might just be the chorus [Editor’s note: The song is called ‘Static’] — and it really got me through a lot of hard times and gave me energy and confidence. I love that song, and I love that whole record.” While fellow band member Jeremy Davis shared one of his favorites “My favorite was The Alchemy Index by Thrice. They came out with basically four different EPs, and they’re all amazing. Some of my favorite records of all time, to be honest.”
