In just over twenty four hours, I will no longer be single. Will the music be different on the other side? We’ll have to wait until next week to find out. Until then, here is my last random ten songs as a single person:
- She Swings She Sways – Wasted Love Songs: “Highway”
- Eminem – The Eminem Show: “Square Dance”
- Angels and Airwaves – We Don’t Need to Whisper: “Valkyrie Missile”
- The Academy Is… – Santi: “Unexpected Places”
- Hellogoodbye – Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs!: “Stuck to You”
- Incubus – A Crow Left of the Murder: “Here in My Room”
- Something Corporate – Galaxy Sessions: “Airports”
- OK Go – Oh No: “Let It Rain”
- Vampire Weekend – Vampire Weekend: “Bryn”
- Coldplay – Coldplay Unreleased: “See You Soon (acoustic)”
If you haven’t heard She Swings, She Sways, I encourage you to check them out. I think they’re an Authentic Records band but don’t count on that being correct. If I remember to edit this post I’ll try to include a video of She Swings.
I felt a bit like a Strib commenter when I typed the Hellogoobye album titile. Good thing the capital letters were under control. Seems like Hellogoodbye’s work is getting a bit stale; they must have a new album on the horizon.
Something Corporate is awesome live. I was walking around Warped Tour between a Finch and New Found Glory’s sets, and just happened to come across Something Corporate’s concert. I think I may have been on my way to see either The Alkaline Trio or someone like that, but my SC stop was well worth missing bands I already knew. I need to find out if they make it all the way out here to the east coast.
Except for the Eminem this list is pretty representative of the music that I normally listen too. Perhaps one country song, and one harder rock song would have really made the sample more inclusive, but I really like this list. Well that is what is on my list for today, May 29th 2009.
Jessica Simpson just started playing. I didn’t know I even had any of her music. Good thing this one came in at number 11 rather than number 10.
What’s on your list for today?
