As much as I love, love, love 'Possibility' by Lykke Li- especially the heart wrenching scene it plays against in New Moon (October...November...December- tear)- my vote has to be 'Through the Trees' by Low Shoulder aka Test your Reflex from Jennifer's Body. Everyone knows I have a soft spot (albeit gushy and blood stained) in my heart for Diablo Cody's box office flopette J-Bod. Take a listen to both and let me know what you think.
