SUFJAN STEVENS: Rake: MP3 Downloads
1 recommendation
"This song is so good and moves me so much that i skip it whenever it comes on. And that sucks because I LIKE the song and want to hear it. I'd have to go through the troublesome task of taking out my "emotion" chip first. Sigh."
ANTONY & THE JOHNSONS: The Lake: MP3 Downloads
1 recommendation
"I own this album and I've heard this song a million times. I couldn't tell you what it's about though because every time I hear it I'm too busy picking pieces of my heart off the floor. I've said it before and I'll say it again- Antony's voice in mythical and utterly enchanting. THis is what my brother calls "sad bastard music"."
ANTONY & THE JOHNSONS Hope There's Someone: MP3 Downloads
1 recommendation
"I had the great pleasure of seeing Antony & The Johnsons perform a couple of years back. Unfortunately they played this song which I was hoping they wouldn't. Why "unfortunately", you ask? Because I cried in public, shattering my cool, calm and icy reputation. Antony's voice is mythical. It's like a fallen angel's that's been smoking and drinking too long here with us mortals. Haunting!"
BOB DYLAN: Not Dark Yet: MP3 Downloads
1 recommendation
"This song makes me think of death. Not in a freaked out, morbid kind of way, but in a "however the wind blows, big beautiful existential sigh of resignation" kind of way. Good song."
Sea Change: Beck
2 recommendations
"A weepy little ditty off Beck's Sea Change album. You know, I prefer this country/ folksy Beck over the Odelay Beck."
TOM WAITS Tom Traubert's Blues (Four Sheets To The Wind In Copenhagen): MP3 Downloads
1 recommendation
"People either love or hate Tom Waits. Maybe it has to do with the fact that he sounds like he gargles shards glass every morning. This song is amazing. The contrast of his signature gravelly voice combined with this touching song is a perfect match."
BONNIE 'PRINCE BILLY – The Way: MP3 Download
2 recommendations
"Looking for a sad ass love song? Well look no further. The master of somber, bleakness, singer/songwriter Bonnie Prince Billy has done it again. All joking aside, this song is really beautiful."
NEIL HALSTEAD Hi-Lo and In Between: MP3 Downloads
1 recommendation
"Check out Neil Halstead. Especially if you're an emotional masochist and like musicians like: Damien Rice, Sufjan Stevens and Ray Lamontagne. This song is a heart crusher. Sweet, sentimental and gooshy. It brings a tear to me glass eye. Arrrrggghhhh."
CHAKA KHAN – Love Me Still- MP3 Download
1 recommendation
"Chaka is the queen and this song brings me to my knees. If you grew up in the 80's and a corny MF you'll be happy, like I was, to learn that its Bruce Hornsby on the piano. I first heard this song on the Clockers soundtrack many years back."
Beast Of Burden: MP3 Downloads: The Rolling Stones
1 recommendation
"Starting off your day right is imerparative. It's this song that does it for me... The perfect mix of excitement and emotion to wake you up, but low key enough for the morning."
NINA SIMONE: Ne Me Quitte Pas (MP3 Download)
1 recommendation
"Never in my entire life have I ever wanted to trade places with anyone else, and I can be pretty self loathing at times. All except when I first heard this song. I've hooked on Nina ever since. Heavenly. Heavenly, wondrously flawless."
PETER GABRIEL: I Grieve (MP3 Download)
1 recommendation
"This song twists me into knots. Beautiful and painful all at the same time. But don't worry, the song takes an upbeat optimistic turn in the end. I love a song that makes me go from despair to bliss in 8 minutes (yes, 8!) If you need to get over something painful real quick, this song is a must listen!"
Ll Cool J: I Can't Live Without My Radio
1 recommendation
"LL was and still is completely full of himself. I liked the bravado better when he was younger, because back then you could chalk it up to youth. Now its just sad, rude and lame. I love this album, especially this track. Its good because its true. I don't think I could live without my radio."
LISA LISA & CULT JAM: Head To Toe (MP3 Download)
1 recommendation
"This song use to make me so happy when it would come on the radio back in '84. And it still does!...well, not when it comes on the radio. Unless there is some amazingly awesome radio station out there that I don't know about. As the song goes "...its possible, but I doubt it.""
MADELEINE PEYROUX: Between the Bars (MP3 Downloads)
1 recommendation
"No I hardly EVER EVER say this, but this cover of Elliot Smith's Between the Bars by Madeleine Peyroux may just well be better than the original. What do you think? Anyway, both versions are beautiful and eerie."
STEVE WINWOOD: Higher Love (MP3 Downloads)
1 recommendation
"I LOVE THIS SONG! It was on the soundtrack of the movie Big Shots an 80's movie about two 10 year old boys who go on this crazy adventure. I think one of the kids was trying to go across country to find his dad. Anyway, I loved this movie and this song."
WILL.I.AM: Secrets (MP3 Download)
1 recommendation
"I'd love to hate Will.I.Am for putting Fergie on the map. All anger aside, I've had too much love for him. Here's a pretty fun, upbeat, DOPE track from the solo artist that was featured on the Dexter's Labaratory soundtrack. You got to love the Cartoon Network and their collabs with respectable hip hop artists. They know their ish over there."
Jefferson Airplane: White Rabbit
1 recommendation
"This is a great classic rock song. And might I add a complete and utter stoner song to say the least. And it's about chess....yeah. Don't try to make sense of it unless you've eaten a handful of mushrooms or have acid tabs stuck on your sweaty forehead. (Don't do that)"
NINA SIMONE: Feeling Good: MP3 Downloads
3 recommendations
"PHENOMENAL! This is the song you play after you've fallen down and taken a bruising. Call me morbid, but I want this song sung at my funeral procession with a full band N'Orleans style!"
Attack & Release: The Black Keys
1 recommendation
"This blues rock lo-fi duo is one of the most critically acclaimed bands today. Their sweet ass guitar riffs and primitive drummin beats are intoxicating. Attack and Release is produced by the infamous Danger Mouse, noted for The Gray Album (remix of Beatles's "White Album" and Jay Z's "Black Album"). The album features "Strange Times" (Grand Theft Auto 4), and "Things Ain't Like They Used To B..."
Mama, I'm A Big Girl Now
1 recommendation
"OMG, this song is sooo fun and I like to put it on repeat. Fun to sing a long to. Love the cameos by Ricki Lake and Harvey Fierstein, from the Hairspray movie and Broadway show, respectively."
Faster Kill Pussycat [Featuring Brittany Murphy] (Album Version): Paul Oakenfold
1 recommendation
"When I first saw that Brittany Murphy was singing the song I thought "Oh brother!" But then I listened to it and found that she's pretty good in that 1960s sex kitten breathy kind of way. And it does make me feel sexy."
Night Time Is The Right Time (LP Version): Ray Charles
1 recommendation
"I first heard this song on the the Cosby Show when the Huxtable family was lip synching it for the grandparents' wedding anniversary. An awesome performance and a wonderful song. Bluesy and sexy."
In The Mood: Glenn Miller And His Orchestra
1 recommendation
"I know this song is wayyy beyond my age demographic but it makes me want to swing dance even though I don't know how. And it reminds me of Bugs Bunny cartoons for some reason."
Sympathique: Pink Martini
1 recommendation
"LOVE this album. Jazzy with a touch of world rhythm. Faves: Brazil, Amado Mio and Bolero. Don't know why Bolero isn't listed on the mp3 album since I do have it on my CD. It's a great jazz interpretation of Ravel's classic."
Sweet Caroline: Neil Diamond
1 recommendation
"I love this song for obvious reasons and can't help but sing along every time. Elvis and U2 did their own renditions of this song, but Neil did it the best."
Crazy In Love (Album Version): Beyoncé featuring Jay-Z
2 recommendations
"Definitely a guilty pleasure. But something about this song makes me want to do that booty shake."
Broken Social Scene - You Forgot It In People
3 recommendations
"I know BSS is nothing new, but I just saw the movie Half Nelson and the soundtrack reminded me that You Forgot It In People was also once my own soundtrack, back when I was living in NYC, feeling tired and disillusioned. (No, I didn't have a cocaine habit, nor was I a junior high school teacher.)"
