The year of 2012 in music, can be said was the year of the challengers. There were more new-comers making all kinds of chart noise and/or history throughout the year. In this the best of the best list, the 'cream really did rise to the top'. The super-stars like George Strait, Kenny Chesney and Taylor Swift did make the list, but with the exception of Swift they didn't break the top ten.
