It's half-time for 2011 which gives us the perfect opportunity to make a couple more lists. We are starting today with the selection of our 40 favorite singles of the year so far and until the end of the week we'll have that tricky album list which is currently under debate, although it's quite clear who's going to be at the top. The rule for the list you see below is to include only one single per artist for a more varied selection, while the ranking is only indicative as it's always changing. Here's how our Top 40 looks like this week, a few days into the second half of the year:
