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 wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

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?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Well, Talking Heads are kind of the referent band of the moment, just recently supplanting Gang of 4 in that regard. So that makes sense, I guess.
Of course, nothing's going to top "Psycho Chicken" - buk buk buk buk buk buk...

Mr. Broom, would you mind sharing that Bishop Allen cover? I love them. "Little Black Ache" is one of my favorite songs ever.

I got the track from You Ain't No Picasso, one of the better music blogs out there, I think. He's obsesssed with them (point of fact, the blog's named after an unreleased song of theirs.) Article's here: [link]

Thank you!
I highly recommend the rest of you visit that link and grab at least "Little Black Ache." Seriously. It's such a "happy to be miserable" song.

I want to play.
All weekend I have been shuffling through a smartlist that only contains songs that have a playcount of 10 or higher and no other criteria. (I wanted a long mix that I knew I could sing along to while I was unpacking.) I started playing it Friday night and at 7 p.m. on Sunday night I have gotten through... 374 of 848 songs!
The last ten:
"Tainted Obligation" - REM
"3 Inch Horses, Two Faced Monsters" - Modest Mouse
"O Death" - Camper Van Beethoven
"Dancing with the Women at the Bar" - Whiskeytown
"Let the Cool Goddess Rust Away" - Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
"The Bones of an Idol" - New Pornographers
"Oceanographer's Choice" - The Mountain Goats
"Whitewater" - Bela Fleck
"Silver Plate Complaints" - Centro-Matic
"Twist the Knife" - Neko Case

This is addictive:
let that show - pernice brothers
mississippi - bob dylan
pot kettle black - wilco
jezebel - iron & wine
billy liar - the decemberists
sunshine - split lip
true love will find you in the end - beck
I wanna be your dog - uncle tupelo
you've got to hide your love away - eddie vedder (that was three covers in a row. craxy.)
love hungry man - mark kozelek (four! that's officially spooky)
OK. I'll stop. For tonight anway.
