this is what shuffle tells me as i try to write a personal statement

sean lennon ... tomorrow

bob dylan ... i want you
my favorite bob dylan song! but i say that about pretty much every bob dylan song that comes up, so...you be the judge

harry mcclintock ... big rock candy mountain

badly drawn boy ... something to talk about

the old 97s ... let the idiot speak
there was a half a harvest moon up on the hillside, our love was made almost entirely of downside...doooooown town is sooooooo weak, let the idiot speak...you're right in front of me and there's no one to talk to

neutral milk hotel ... in the aeroplane over the sea
oh shuffle how do you know me?

ella fitzgerald and louis armstrong ... let's call the whole thing off
you say m'squito, I say mosquito, you say maaario, i say mayrio, fo' we know we need each other so we let's call the calling off off :)

neutral milk hotel ... king of carrot flowers part 1
this song reminds me of the stories my parents tell me about when they were dating...disturbing?

the beatles ... we can work it out

the decemberists ... the mariner's revenge song
invest the required 9 minutes to listen to this song fully, it's worth the effort

the beatles ... i will
ahh

the smiths ... please, please, please, let me get what i want

the beatles ... till there was you

frankie valli & the four seasons ... can't take my eyes off you

elvis costello ... she
she who always seemed so happy in a crowd whose eyes can be so private and so proud no one's allowed to see them when they cry...me i'll take her laughter and her tears. my favorite elvis by far.

the old 97s ... valentine
too too triste :(

deep blue something ... breakfast at tiffany's
really need to watch this movie all the way through - i've seen it all but not in one fell swoop. cat! cat! cat!

the beatles ... julia

the beatles ... cry baby cry
shuffle?

the smiths ... panic
the music they constantly play says nothing to me about my life

the old 97s ... question

bright eyes ... old soul song (for the new world order)
i've never once listened to this song without getting choked up - i'm pretty sure it's the chords and not the words for some reason

bright eyes ... at the bottom of everything
very bored, very dispondent

old 97's!!! YES. the old 97's are my best friend from high school's favorite band. when he actually met them he admits to having rhett sign his cd and asking some lame question like a school girl.

his name is peter and he lives off alhambra behind the safeway!
