Best way to start the day award: "Mint Car" by The Cure. I blasted this song as i got ready for class this morning, i think it definitely set me up for a good day! I have been feeling optimistic and light hearted since. Try it sometime.

Old School Classic of the day: "Hard to Explain" by The Strokes. I was and still am OBSESSED with their "Is This It?" album. sure it has the amazing singles "Someday," "Last Night." and "Is This It?", but it is packing so much more in between. If you ever have a free afternoon, give it a listen.

"Sort Of Revolution (The Cinematic Orchestra Remix)" by Fink is a must download. It is beautiful.

I usually dont like Weezer covers, but Stream Audio gets it right with their version of "El Scorcho."

The acoustic version of "Sweet Misery" by Michelle Branch is surprisingly good! It reminds me of a coloring book song - just a thick black outline with room for color and imagination. But sometimes coloring book songs are perfect, it gives the listener some room to play around.

Can we talk about this? award: "Unusual Kiss" by Melissa Etheridge. Who the fuck wants their physical affection described as "unusual?" I mean seriously.... is that a compliment? "

Lover 1: "Wow that was unusual"
Lover 2: "Thanks babe, i get that a lot"

Come on Melissa. The song just... it just... Ill be honest - i listened to it three times. In a row. Turned all the way up. And i hated myself every minute of it.

Hidden Gem: "For Every Drop" by Sonya Kitchell. This is one i will definitely be listening to again.

Oh my God, just confess
You want it, you want it
You're just like the rest
Oh dear child, don't deny
You need it, need it
For your alibi
All the stars around
Become blocked in your mind
Just so you could justify
Oh my God, I don't care
You're talkin', talkin'
And there's nothing there

Cool song of the day: "Symbol in My Driveway" by Jack Johnson. Its a cool song.

"Ritual Dance" by Kaki King is one of those badass guitar songs from August Rush. I thought you should know, i had no clue. Good movie. That cello girl was a babe. If she was a president her name would be Babraham Lincoln. (2 points to anyone who can cite that movie quote)

Most appropriate for the moment award: "Riders on the Storm" by The Doors, It came on as i was driving home over the mountain in a blizzard. Hahah i just laughed and went faster

(dear mom: total joke, i would never speed in bad weather with icy roads and poor visibility)

(dear everyone else: total non-joke)


Thats it for the music today. More to come tomorrow.
