Song of the Day #224 - simple, yes my friend

I don't know how to describe this song.  Except that it's rad.

Battles - Ice Cream

ps - this video is kind of amazing.

Song of the Day #223 - and the music keeps on playin' on and on

Dance, dance.

Basement Jaxx - Red Alert

ps - first heard this song freshman year of college in a class called "critiquing the critics"....wow, so long ago...

Song of the Day #222 - c'mon, don't you know i wanna see you

This song reminds me of Oleander (of "I Walk Alone" fame).  Mid-to-late 90s alt rock is still my fav.

Mona - Listen to Your Love

ps - thanks for pulling that one out, tampa...still alive in my survivor pool.

Song of the Day #221 - i don't know whether i'm the boxer or the bag

Saw 50/50 tonight and this played during the closing credits. Definitely in the conversation for best Pearl Jam song.  Can't believe it's only a b-side.  Also, the only reason I know those are actual lyrics in the song is because I looked it up.  Oh, Eddie Vedder and your unintelligible lyrics....

Pearl Jam - Yellow Ledbetter

ps - really liked the movie, by the way

Song of the Day #220 - i leapt across three or four beds into your arms

Definitely my favorite Pornographers song.  Love the build to an all-out sing-a-long.  I used to be OBSESSED with Twin Cinema.  I say this a lot about a lot of different things, but I really do need to go back and start listening to them again...it's been too long. 

The New Pornographers - The Bleeding Heart Show

ps - texas fight!
