It seems that the cool guy/moron ratio is better off in the world of Last.fm than it is in the real world. The website which - in case you've been living under a rock - offers to keep track of your listening habbits if you sign up (See for instance: TL's profile), has posted its 40 most listened artists in 2010.

I make the opening (rather subjective) assessment after discovering that bands like Biffy Clyro and Mumford And Sons go toe to toe with jokes like Linkin Park and Bullet For My Valentine on the list. Also worth noting is that, if you thought the likes of Vampire Weekend, The National and Beach House were cool indie-type bands that only few people knew about, you should maybe think again. Finally, EW, you can stop listening to Ke$ha on repeat now, she's already made it to No. 1.....
