    Friday 10: June Madness 

    Its a hot June here in DC, here’s my list for June 26th 2009:

    1. Cold War Kids – Robbers And Cowards: “Red Wine, Success!”
    2. Band of Horses – The OC Mix 6: “The End’s Not Near”
    3. Red Hot Chili Peppers – By the Way: “Can’t Stop”
    4. The Strokes – Is This It: “Barely Legal”
    5. Cold War Kids – Loyalty To Loyalty: “Mexican Dogs”
    6. Blink 182 – Blink 182: “Down”
    7. Spoon – Gimme Fiction: “I Summon You”
    8. The White Stripes – Get Behind Me Satan: “The Denial Twist”
    9. Box Car Racer – Box Car Racer: “There Is”
    10. Yellowcard – Paper Walls: “Shrink The World”

    A Blink/BCR and Cold War Kids heavy mix.  I’m certainly not complaining about the Pop/Punk Rock feel of this week’s list, although I’m wondering where that OC soundtrack came from because I’m 100% certain that I’ve never seen the show.

    What’s on your list this week?

    Friday 10: The Ballad of Honeymoons and H1N1 

    [Edit from Mexico:  I'm apparently not good at remembering to schedule posts that I've written.  So I'm doing this from a funky Mexican computer.  A couple of keys are different on the keyboard which surprised me a bit. Onto the 10. Oh everything went according to plan below.]

    If everything has gone according to plan, I was married last Saturday and am now spending time with my wife in Cozumel, Mexico.  We decided that the H1N1 virus couldn’t scare us from our original plans.  I’ll let everyone know whether or not that was a sound decision.

    1. Matt Kearney – Nothing Left to Lose: “Undeniable”
    2. Yellowcard – Paper Walls: “Fighting”
    3. Lost Prophets – Start Something: “Sway”
    4. Dierks Bentley – Long Trip Alone: “Trying to Stop Your Leaving”
    5. Elton John – Greatest Hits, Vol. 2: “Tiny Dancer”
    6. Daniel Powter – Daniel Powter: “Song 6”
    7. 30 Seconds to Mars – 30 Seconds to Mars: “Year Zero”
    8. Snow Patrol – Eyes Open: “Shut Your Eyes”
    9. Augustana – All the Stars and Boulevards: “Marie [Bonus Track]”
    10. Frank Sinatra – “One for My Baby (And One More for the Road)”

    Matt Kearney is a pretty good way to start this list: something all genders can enjoy.  Or something along those lines . . .

    Fighting is a great running song, and one of my favorites from Paper Walls.

    What am I fighting for?

    There must be something more.

    For all these words I sing,

    Do you feel anything?

    As far as I’m concerned Dierks Bentley can do no wrong.  There I said it.  Long Trip Alone is a terrific country pop album, full of songs about losing your girl/dog/job while still sounding upbeat.

    Tiny Dancer is on of my wife’s favorite songs.  It probably has something to do with her years spent in ballet.  Or her love of sequins. Or her appreciation of large glasses.

    I know how some of you feel about 30 Seconds.  You’re wrong.

    I don’t like it when one of the best songs on an album is a “bonus track.”  Bonus tracks should be things like remixes, b-sides, or acoustic versions, especially when the bonus track could have replaced any of the non-bonus songs and made a better album to boot.

    The bookends seem appropriate enough.

    What is on your list for June 5th 2009?

      Definitely Dierks! Anything and everything Dierks! I totally agree–he can do no wrong. LTA did not get nearly enough recognition–although it did get 4 grammy nods! Feel That Fire — his new album is "stuck" in my CD player. Sideways is really fun and upbeat…and I am ready for the next single…"I Wanna Make You Close Your Eyes"…that would be a great one for you honeymooners! Congrats!

    Friday 10 – Its Been a While

    [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.]

    It has already been two Fridays since my last Friday 10.  Man time flies . . . time to get back into the swing of things.

    Here is my ten for Friday, March 13th 2009, hopefully Hanson won’t rear their ugly mugs again:

    1. Yellowcard – Lights and Sounds: “Martin Sheen or JFK”
    2. The Smashing Pumpkins – Greatest Hits Disc 1: “1979”
    3. Kenny Chesney – Be as You Are: “Sherry’s Living in Paradise”
    4. Oasis – (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?: “Champagne Supernova”
    5. Tony Tribe – Bob Marley and the Story of Reggae Disc 1: “Red, Red Wine”
    6. The Daktaries – This is Daptone Records…: “Eltsuhg Ibal Lasiti”
    7. The Killers – Sawdust: “Glamorous Indie Rock and Roll”
    8. AFI – Sing the Sorrow: “The Leaving Song, Pt. 2”
    9. Bloc Party – Intimacy: “Mercury”
    10. Eve 6 – Its All in Your Head: “Hey Montana”

    Pretty varied list.  Eve 6 is one of my favorite bands, but “Hey Montana” is the song I skip every time I listen to that album.  I also cannot stand “Champagne Supernova” but that’s only because some people I dislike argue that it is the greatest song ever written.  And they’re not kidding.  Reggae?!  I’m surprised every week.

    What’s on your list for today?

    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.

    What’s on your list for today?

      Oh man, I hate "All the Small Things". Least favorite Blink song ever (although I did like some of their others).

      Sorry, don't mean to bash your list, that was just my first reaction. Plus, the list is redeemed immediately by the Pink Floyd coming right after.

      Aqueduct – Growin Up With GNR
      Meat Puppets – Lost
      Nirvana – Something in the Way
      Radiohead – Pyramid Song
      Dust Brothers – Homework
      Foo Fighters – Headwires
      Korn – Hollow Life
      System Of A Down – Thetawaves
      Everclear – Electra Made Me Blind
      Rage Against the Machine – Settle For Nothing
