I wanted to add two songs by Alicia Keys from her Unplugged album, even though this did not come out in 2009, I hadn't heard it before this year, which is weird cuz I have most of her stuff. Anyway the songs are; How come you don't call me, and Wild Horses. Wild Horses is a Rolling Stones cover, I think Susan Boyle did her own version of that song this year.
