Ol Dirty Bastard - Shimmy Shimmy Ya - this song can get me out of any bad mood ever
The Pogues - Body of an American - makes me think about the Wire, and i challange anyone not to sing along to the line "I'm a free born man of the USA!"
Hell Yeah- Bloodhound Gang - every now and again these guys can be pretty damn clever
Nirvana - son of a gun- reminds me of high school and good times.

+ Franz Ferdinand, "Take Me Out" -- danced to this at a jam-packed club in Heidelberg, Germany, eating watermelon with one hand and drinking a triple vodka tonic with the other, jumping up and down with Kevin Wren + speaking of: everything The Wrens have ever done or will ever do, forever, forever + Outkast, "Hey Ya" -- I'm sure I'm not alone in this, but I will never get sick of this song + sElf, "Uno Song" -- because I got a solo performance at the first show I ever drove to Milwaukee alone to see, before doors + The Long Winters, "Car Parts" -- for soundtracking the most ridiculous, outrageous, hilarious, and altogether fun year of my life (2002) + Kelly Clarkson, "Walk Away" -- yelling along at the top of my lungs while running at top speed trying to catch the 2nd Ave/LES F train + everything Sean Nelson has ever touched + ditto Eddie Argos! |
