@tobermoriansass tagged me in a “ten songs you have on repeat” meme!
1) Primitive Radio Gods, “Things You Can Drive” — To everybody else PRG is a one-hit-wonder band. To me, Chris O’Connor is a rock ‘n’ roll prophet.
2) Primitive Radio Gods, “Automatic” — ditto. I’ve been listening to songs off Sweet Venus a lot.
3) Tinted Windows, “Doncha Wanna” — it’s warm and sunny and the time has come to listen to my favorite genre, the power pop genre, the infectiously catchy statutory rape genre
4) Low Cut Connie, “Oh Yeah” — I am literally crushed that the Afghan Whigs show in NOLA falls on the Bowery Ballroom date for Low Cut Connie. I am prioritizing the Whigs because 1) it’s the Whigs, 2) horn section, but I’m still bummed out about being double booked.
5) Citizen Cope feat. Carlos Santana, “Son’s Gonna Rise” — I was just at my 20th, and this song takes me right back to high school.
6) Dovetail Joint, “Superconductive” — Dovetail Joint released a new album just when I needed it. Now when will they play a show! I will fly to Chicago! I don’t give a shit!
7) Mondo Cozmo, “Black Cadillac” — Shockingly, I was never a huge Lou Reed fan, but I often dig it when other artists ape Lou Reed. With a side of the Rolling Stones. Lately the climax of this song brings tears to my eyes. All these words we’ll never say, all these bills we’ll never pay, all these dreams that got away … but not for me, not today.
8) Collective Soul, “Vent” — BABY’S FIRST COLLECTIVE SOUL TICKET PURCHASEDDDDD
9) The Afghan Whigs, “Jungle Roux” — New Whigs track! Duh!
10) Wet Leather, “IWMU” — obscure but catchy, poignant electro pop
I am commuting and on the move so I tag whoever wants to do this :)
