It always seems that the end of July coincides with the end of summer, even though there is little different between July and August.  I guess we ought to just celebrate the remnants of summer.  With that in mind, here are 10 random songs for July, 31st 2009:

1. Kings of Leon – Only by the Night: “Use Somebody”
2. Franz Ferdinand – You Could Have It So Much Better: “What You Meant”
3. The Starting Line – Direction: “Birds”
4. Green Day – Warning: “Church on Sunday”
5. Thursday – Full Collapse: “Cross Out the Eyes”
6. Thursday – War All the Time: “Division St.”
7. Dave Matthews – Some Devil: “Some Devil”
8. Steve Miller Band – Steve Miller Band Live!: “Abracadabra”
9. Guster – Parachute: “Scars & Stitches”
10. OK Go – Oh No: “Here It Goes Again”

Warning is easily the Green Day album I’ve listen to most.  That cd didn’t come out of my car player for weeks.  “Cross Out the Eyes” is probably my favorite Thursday song, at least that I can think of off hand.  I need to revisit their albums still this summer.  Lo and behold, another Thursday song pops up next, funny how that works.  I’m not much of a Dave Matthews fan, but the music has its time and place I guess.  For some reason I much prefer Guster to DMB, but who knows why.

I think this list fits summer pretty well.  What’s on your list today?

[Note: I’m sure you’ve already seen these lists going around the interwebs, so obviously this isn’t an original idea. But I still like the idea of posting ten random songs from your chosen music library. The rules are simple: Play your entire library of songs on random, and record the first ten that come up. No matter what 10 songs appear, post them.]

Here is my ten for Friday, February 13th, 2009:

1. A Static Lullaby: …And Don’t Forget to Breathe – “Nightmares Win 6-0″
2. Guster: Keep It Together – “Come Downstairs And Say Hello”
3. Modest Mouse: Good News for People Who Love Bad News – “Bukowski”
4. Garth Brooks: Sevens – “Two Pina Coladas”
5. Yellowcard: Lights and Sounds – “Rough Landing, Holly”
6. Unwritten Law: Here’s to the Mourning – “Because of You”
7. Hanson: Middle of Nowhere – “Lucy”
8. blink-182: Greatest Hits – “All the Small Things“
9. Pink Floyd: The Dark Side of the Moon – “Brain Damage”
10. Something Corporate: North – “Ruthless”

Crap I jinxed myself. Here’s what I said last week:

To be honest, I’m pretty happy with this list: MMMM Bop isn’t on there.

Damn Hanson. I knew that after mentioning MMMM Bop that one of their songs might pop up this week. I’m not even going to go into why I have that album on my computer besides to say that playing Hanson over and over again is a sure fire way to piss of your neighbors/roommates. Other than the Hanson travesty, I like the variance of this week’s list. I still remember the first time I heard Something Corporate. It happened to be live at a Summer festival and I was impressed how good they were live.

I’m surprised I haven’t more country and old music on these lists yet, but if I had to pick someone representative of that group, Garth Brooks would be my choice. If you didn’t see him perform during the HBO’s Pre-Inauguration Concert, you missed out.
