Buffistas

I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Closed Threads

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.

Anyone got any songs that shouldn't be left out?

A instant happy-making song for me on any summer mix is "Acuff-Rose" by Uncle Tupelo, but it will only work if you like the alt. country fiddle thing.

I am making mixes for my b-day party and they are difficult given how little new music I have bought over the past few months. But today - I will buy the new Wilco, Ghost is Born, FINALLY. I am not expecting it to be too mixable, though.

Re: Observer list.

I saw a band last night that listed the Stone Roses as their #1 influence. That seems oddly coincidental.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Takes notes.

I don't know much about the alt. country fiddle thing, but it sounds splendid.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Wow. It turns out I am msbelle! Cherish is one of my #1 summer songs and I had forgotten all about it!

Fly - Sugar Ray

How Bizarre - OMC

These two were on the radio the summer before my senior year, and I worked at a waterpark that played them all the time. Nothing says summer more! I'd throw 'Semi-Charmed Life' in there to complete the circle.

They were on heavy rotation when I drove to LA from NM one summer. Turns out I don't listen to the radio much anymore except when in a car.

Cry Me a River - JT and Beautiful - Christina will always be linked to Ireland with me now because of this.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Tina, it's not too mixable generally, but "Handshake Drugs" would work anywhere.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Cry Me a River - JT and Beautiful - Christina will always be linked to Ireland with me now because of this.

Oh, yes. And a number of other songs. Including "Scandalous" by Mis-Teeq. Which is finally catching on in the U.S.

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove

Lilty Cash - "Wipeout." Now I'm gonna have that percussion in my head the rest of the afternoon.

tina f.! Have you seen this Winfield film? Jamming in The Grove - including SLR, PoDank and Wilders. Now I'm all homesick.

SA, Steph, meara! (and any other Melissa Ferrick fans) A woman who works in my building was at the Borders gig in Chicago. She recorded it and is willing to share. Email me at profile addy if interested.

As usual, I'm posting and running. Stoopid work.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Possum Kingdom - The Toadies

msbelle, yes! I love the Toadies.

Garbage, "Get Busy with the Fizzy."

That's all that comes to mind right now, but -- oh!

Ash, "Walking Barefoot" and "Pacific Palisades." And "Coasting," if you can find it.

Oh, Christ, of course: Emm Gryner, "Summerlong."

Eddie from Ohio, "Cantering on Fool."

Weezer, "Island in the Sun."

(I'm pulling songs from the Island Paradise mix I made for someone once, which I think was the first mix CD I ever made.)

Urge, "Jump Right In."

Sprung Monkey, "Get 'Em Outta Here."

Len, "Steal My Sunshine."

Porno for Pyros, "Tahitian Moon."

I am actually going to see pt. 1 tonight at a free screening.

Now I'm all homesick.

Don't despair, katefate. It is only 3 months away!!! I'm going for 6 days this year and I will cry if I think about how excited I am about it.

Tina, it's not too mixable generally, but "Handshake Drugs" would work anywhere.

Noted. Thanks.

Also congrats on your Decemberists tickets - I wish they would come here.
