Everyone was as busy as me last weekend, huh?

Week ending 6/12

  1. The Kidney Thieves “Before I’m Dead”

  2. Dashboard Confessional " Vindicated"

  3. Kylie Minogue " Come Into my World" (Fisherspooner remix)

  4. Linkin Park " Breaking the Habit"

  5. Hillary Duff “Come Clean” no really
    Week ending 6/19

  6. Paranoid Social Club " 2 Girls" ironic since I usually hate this band. I’d swear it’s a cover, though

  7. Prince “Raspberry Beret”

  8. Socialburn “Ashes”

  9. Travis " Writing to Reach You"

  10. Paloalto “Going, Going, Gone”

There’s a song I heard on Monday that I liked, but they didn’t say who it was by or the title. Do the lines " Give it up/I’m not what you’ve been waiting for" sound familiar to anyone? Probably a brand new song played only on alt stations. I hate when this happens :frowning: But, like the Julianna Hatfield song from last time, I figure I’ll solve the mystery sooner or later.

  2. All-Time Quarterback! - Why I Cry
  3. Sorry About Dresden - Sick & Sore
  4. Coheed and Cambria - Blood Red Summer
  5. Ben Folds - Fred Jones, part 2.

CD with at least one track for next weeks list: Rilo Kiley - The Execution of All Things.

I like my music to have a certain style, a certain soul to it. John Ralston is a guy (obviously), with a backing band that plays some great music. I’ve been listening to his cd Needle Bed pretty much nonstop, ever since I saw him open for the Get Up Kids (who should’ve been on the list! GAH!). I met him, too! :cool:

Props to the poster who suggested Maps, which held the #1 spot for a while.

  2. Recover “Push, Push”

  4. Moth “Drop Deaf”
  5. The Alaskan Pipeline “Grandfather Clock”
76

“Girl” by Beck. It’s permanently embedded in my brain, therefore preventing
me from hearing any other music. And the video is pretty entertaining, too.

77

Wow, did you actually plan to resurrect this exactly 364 days after its initial death?? That’s pretty amazing.

Anyway, I’ll get back in:

  3. Gracious Shades - Aberkash
  4. Dead Can Dance - Nierika
  5. Death Cab for Cutie - This Temporary Life
78

Ha, no. I just thought to myself “it’s been a while since we did this.” You know, the smart thing would have been to wait two more days, so people would have been confused that it at first glance the newest response looked like it was just a day after the first - until they noticed the years :stuck_out_tongue:

79

Week ending 7/29:

  2. Bob Mould - (Shine Your) Light Love Hope

I don’t know if you knew this or not, but “Why I Cry” is a cover of a song by The Magnetic Fields, one of my favorite bands. Ben Gibbard is apparently a big fan too, as he’s also covered their “The Saddest Story Ever Told.” I recommend you check it out, if you haven’t already.
