landed - ben folds

For some reason I always forget about Ben Folds & when I hear a song like "Landed", I always feel guilty for overlooking him in my list of cds.  I had the opportunity to see Be...

this old machine - coconut records

This song, albeit short and sweet captures my feeling of disappointment.  It's this feeling that I have right now that I try hard to avoid, but I never seem to be able to shake.  I get attac...

come away - up up down down left right left right b a start

I'm not sure I have story.  I will say that I love the contrast between the singing and the screaming in this song. When you first hear the singing at the beginning you'd never expect to hearing ...

walking after you - foo fighters

I'll be the first to admit that when the whole grunge movement became the new alternative, I was on team Pearl Jam.  I liked Nirvana, but my heart was more into Eddie Vedder then Kurt Cobain.&nbs...

as we go up we go down - guided by voices

Mother Fucker.  This song is amazing and I'm so stoked that I found it on myspace.  This song has been my tied for my favorite Guided By Voices song since approximately 1998 when Brian Parso...

how to save a life - the fray

So before you think anything...I'd just like to say that I don't care.  I know this song is everywhere, but quite honestly I love it.  I decided this last night while I was in the tub listen...

ciao - lush

Hands down this is one of my all time favorite duets.  You can't get much better then Miki Berenyi & Jarvis Cocker singing about how they are douchebags in eyes of each other.  The word...

murderers - john frusciante

So I believe this song appears in the Yeah Right skate video put out by Girl.  Yes, it's the song that's being played with all the invisible boards...damn. I never knew it was John Frusciante.&nb...
