  I am rockin′on:
  *(Love Is Like A )Heatwave- Martha and the Vandelas. such face-melting soul!!
  *Uptown- Prince. Ridiculous posturing and lyrics plus wierd synths divided by the square root of virtuoso guitar equals…. keep your body hottttt!
  ***Keep love as your Golden Rule-HAL. sweet harmonies…top album
  *Copper Kettle- Bob Dylan. from his hated “self-portrait” album. Embodies my aesthetic. so good. ( I pause to sigh and reflect) few chords, strings, rural imagery….tears.. I sing it to baby Esmé and she sleeps. So “Snuggery”
  *Night Birds-Ryan Adams. go on, let him in to your heart.(also Call me on your way back home)
  *The Sun Aint Gonna Shine (Anymore)- Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons — whoa this is awesome!
  *here she comes again- The Stands, SO UNDER-RATED

  that′ll do for now

  yes, jesse, sufjan very up your alley, I think- give it a try.
  no…. I still cant down-load your songs… they will play, although I didnt wait for the whole thing to load. Why dont you just make me an album? the old way. (go on….)
  Charles:I heard Mightnight Juggernauts play a set on jjj ( my radio cred just went down in front of an international audience) including Rock lobster (b-52’s) and the tom-tom club’s song that Mariah’s ‘Fantasy’ is based on. Excellent choises from those boys. I know that Rock lobster is camp and gimmicky- but it sure has some burning riffs in it!!!Better than Dead kennedys. Actually their whole first album is excelent. pity about their 90’s demise into fizz-pop…

  Sufjan Stevens eh? That doesn’t sound like something I’d say.

  This has got to be the craziest set of recommendations that I have ever seen.

  Keep it comming.

  why, this forum of course… that is, until i get reminded that i have No jurisdiction Whatsoever, Please Shut Up. (N-J-W,P-S-U)

  Just heard Tv on the radio- very intruiging!
  new Phoenix is good.

  Question for all you loyal subscribers:
  Who is better, Mariah or Beyonce? and please substantiate your answer. Thighs may be a determining factor, but try to stick to music.
  This week Ive been windowcleaning to:
  Womack &Womack
  The Ramones
  Charles Kikuchi
  The Velvet Underground.
  not a bad combo.
  Best morning-motivational song?

  I gotta say I prefer Beyoncé. But having thought about it, it really does have nothing to do with music. Beyoncé seems to have more credibility. Why this is I don’t know. She really has nothing above Mariah in that sense (Jay-z?? would a “Pepsi Can” really make up for all of his musical sins? I don’t think so). At least Tony Mollotta didn’t collaborate with her at any point, in a vocal format.

  here is a playlist to make you feel great:

  No Confidence Man - Elliott Smith
  Trouble (Cat Stevens Cover) - Elliott Smith
  Stained Glass Eye - Elliott Smith
  Twilight - Elliott Smith
  There There - Radiohead
  Call Me On Your Way Back Home - Ryan Adams
  Come Pick Me Up - Ryan Adams
  Plainclothes Man - Heatmiser
  The Lord God Bird - Sufjan Stevens
  Mistress - Sufjan Stevens
  Undertaker - M. Ward
  I’ll Be Yr Bird - M. Ward
  Heartbeats - José González
  Evening On The Ground (Lilith’s Song) - Iron & Wine

  Best motivational song? (ATM)
  New York, New York - Ryan Adams
