- "There She Goes Again" by R.E.M. This is a live version of the Velvet Underground song recorded in 1983 in Madison. Sounds like a fun night.
- "Sex Sux (Amen)" by The Vaselines. Lots of fuzzy guitar.
- "16 Military Wives" by The Decemberists. Haven't the slightest idea what this song is about but am guessing it's pretty political Fun and catchy nonetheless.
- "Earthmover" by The Festering Rinyanyons. A loud, loud band from DeKalb, Illinois.
- "The Pick-Up" by Sufjan Stevens. I'm pretty sure I could take on Sufjan and his 30-piece band in a fight.
- "Let's Pretend" by Josh Berman. I just picked this up on Wednesday. It's very jazzy but in a good way. I grew up with Josh and he's a great guy. We hung out a lot in high school when he was first learning the cornet - he sounded awful and it gave me a headache. To hear this now is truly amazing. Go buy it. Now. You'll love it.
- "Poor Places" by Wilco. The live version recorded at like the Park West. Eh.
- "I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone" by Sleater-Kinney. I'd also accept being your Marky Ramone.
- "I'm Not a Punk" by The Descendents. It's true, I'm not.
- "Two Steps Back" by the Fall. I'm not a punk. I'm more of a post-punk.
- "Talking Bird" by Death Cab For Cutie. I picked up the most recent Death Cab record sometime last year and never really listened to it. Is it any good?
- "I Don't Know" by The Beastie Boys. I don't know this song.
- "Go Fun Burn Man" by Mission of Burma. Live version from a compilation.
- "What We Do Is a Secret" by The Germs. Not my favorite band ever.
- "Ziggy Stardust" by David Bowie. Mick Ronson played guitar.

#15 … and on stage Bowie fell to his knees and pretended to play Ronson’s guitar with his teeth, which looked very sexy. I used to teach this song to my students in South Korea … it wasn’t actually that useful in conversational English … it seemed funny at the time.
