Sorry about that guys.
For my fourth pick, I select
Jay Crocker - Melodies from the Outskirts (2006) in the
Best Pop Album category.
1. Wooden Tin
2. Eramosa Road
3. Strong Arm Down
4. Ice Man
5. Dead Birds
6. Paper Thin
7. Somewhere Between Good & Evil
8. Wake Up Honolulu
This is a great pop album. It was a must-pick in this category as far as I'm concerned, not because Jay's a local boy (although that's a nice plus), but because it's just such a solid record. He recently released his second full length but this one suits the category a bit better.

Jay’s first solo pop recording “Melodies From The Outskirts” was released in 2006 to national critical acclaim, followed by a successful Canadian cross-country tour with his 9-piece genre-bending, avant-pop ensemble. “Melodies From The Outskirts” received airplay across Canada on Pop, jazz, roots and experimental charts alike and was named by the Calgary Herald as the city’s best indie release of 2006.
