The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band - Worn Out Shoe.

The definition of “new favorite song”: I’ll be listening to this thing for the next 2 weeks straight. Whatever it is.

Update: I looked it up, and apparently it’s in the psycho hillbilly genre. Duh.

Marvin Gaye vs Black Grape - Shake your Grapes

This is my favorite mashup ever. It reminds me of driving in the dark at 5 in the morning wearing a bright red shirt.

…and I love it anyway.

Just a song you should know.

Ezra Furman & The Harpoons - Take Off Your Sunglasses.

CAN’T. STOP. LISTENING. It’s like the Violent Femmes before I got so sick of them I wanted to die!

Well she called me up, she said I love you in the middle of the night
I said in the middle of the night everybody loves everybody else these days
She said oh, in the middle of the day I love you very much
I said everybody loves each other these days…

Mark Berube - Flowers on the Stones.

It’s like if Elvis Perkins suddenly became the conductor for the Talking Heads. So, awesome.

(Also, I’m going to start saying “never shut up” instead of “I love you.”)

Elliott Brood - Write it All Down for You.

A story I just made up about this song:

“Holy shit,” I said.

The end.

Blind Pilot - Paint or Pollen.

Hopefully you’re all intimately familiar with Blind Pilot, so this should really just act as a reminder. On the off-chance that you’re not? Happy birthday.

Lissie - Little Lovin’.

I don’t think there’s really any genre that this girl fits into, besides maybe “awesome” or “makes me want to twirl around in circles.”

Trains Across the Sea - I Will Meet You There.

My only complaint is this song is way too short. Otherwise, perfection.
