Trying to listen to my iPod on Shuffle on the way to work has amde me realize that most of my music is very mellow.
I Know I Know I Know, Tegan and Sara
Woot!
I absolutely love this song, but I have to admit, there's something about their voices that grates. I don't think I could sit and listen to a whole album at once.
It took a while for me to warm up to them but I'm such a girly fan at this point. I think the latest album is pretty fucking great.
ETA: Plus they're cute! [link]
I don't have an iPod, so I can't play. But I did do a few new mixes (to cheer up Rio while she's tied to the Legasus).

Mind, that's not a strict Honky Tonk set, but it's mostly that way.
Is Soulseek downy down, like, for good? I was looking for a specific out-of-print remix, and, well, I can't get anything. No website, no client, no forums, nothing.
I'm searching for Okkervil River right this second and came up with all manner of hits, Gandalfe. I think you're just getting crap luck.
Hmm. Maybe it was just temporary server trouble, then.
Something I'm noticing: the cool song for everyone and his brother to cover these days is "Psycho Killer." I've found at least four instances of this recently, including a really good one by Bishop Allen just today. Anyone else noticing this, or am I just synchronicitizing?
