Here's a few songs i'm into...maybe you'll be too...say this weekend?


1. "All I Want Is You" by Barry Louis Polisar from the Juno soundtrack {mp3} [BUY]

I know I know...over-written movie with too much hipster BS. I still liked it. Especially the soundtrack and this opening cut that floats somewhere between Sesame Street and the exact opposite of every Mountain Goats song.

2. "Chain Of Fools" by Aretha Franklin {mp3} [BUY]

Thao has got me all riled up about Aretha all over again. One of my favorites that has you on your knees in the beginning but then tears your hips from one side to the other for the remainder. This one is definitely getting played at the bar this weekend.

3. "Bag Of Hammers" by Thao Nguyen with the Get Down Stay Downs from the album We Brave Bee Stings and All {mp3} [BUY]

Another Thao cut from her spectacular new album. The lyrics had me sold on this one immediately.

4. "Right Back Where We Started From" by Maxine Nightingale {mp3} [BUY]

One of those songs that you love but really only hear on the radio and when you do try to look it up you have no clue who the hell is singing it. Well dummies, it's Maxine Nightingale! Duh! Another one to shake your caboose to.

5. "Best Bit" by Beth Orton from the Best Bit ep {mp3} [BUY]

This tune creates an atmosphere that actually places you farther away from the song in that the music makes you conjure up your own lyrics and situation. Beth Orton at her best.

6. "A Change Is Gonna Come" by Sam Cooke {mp3} [BUY]

We all know that Sam Cooke goes without saying...so I'll just say that this goes out to my buddy Drew..Get Well man!

Have a great weekend everyone!
