"My Body Is A Cage" (Arcade Fire): Everything they do moves me in some way or another. You can't ask for more than that from a band you love. 02. "Icky Thump" (The White Stripes): Jack is the closest thing we have to a bona fide rock star. Love him forever because he's a treasure and they don't come around that often. 03. "Knocked Up" (Kings of Leon): They are hot are they not? Red hot. 04. "Going To A Town" (Rufus Wainwright): This song is a masterpiece . . . literally. 05. "Phantom Limbs" (The Shins): It makes a dark girl feel all sunny. 06. "Diamond Sea" (Yeah Yeah Yeahs): Karen O is the queen to all thrones. Simple as that. She's effortlessly great. 07. "Don't Fail Me Now" (Ryan Adams & The Cardinals): I love the atmosphere in this track. It makes me think of old things and how much I miss them. 08. "Did You See The Words" (Animal Collective): I met a boy at a bar and he told me I would love this band and by golly he was right. 09. "Till The Sun Turns Black" (Ray LaMontagne): He's a mystery to me. I love his beard. 10. "Back To Black" (Amy Winehouse): I normally don't like deliberately retro sounding tracks but I love this song. Her lyrical bent and snarly attitude makes me root for her. 11. "B.M.F.A." (Martha Wainwright): The entire album is good but this song is genius. How I wish she was my best friend. 12. "Nan You're A Window Shopper" (Lily Allen): Why the silly record company made her take this off the album is beyond me. This is a true-blue original piece of great punk rock. 13. "f*** It, I Love You" (Malcolm Middleton): f*** it, I do. 14. "It Ain't No Crime" (Keren Ann): This song makes me want to go and do something nasty. 15. "It Serves You Right To Suffer" (John Lee Hooker): It's true. It does. 16. "Chicago (Acoustic Version)" (Sufjan Stevens): Butch Vig turned me onto this track. It makes both of us cry. 17. "Lord, Help The Poor And Needy" (Jesse Mae Hemphill): Amen. One day I hope he will. 18. "My First Song" (Jay-Z): I think Jay is going to fall out of love with Beyoncé and come crying to me on his knees. Oh yes he is. :lol: 19. "The Greatest" (Cat Power): It aches me to hear her sing and this song is her piece de resistance. 20. "The Gulag Orkestar" (Beirut): I love the mind that set to creating this peculiar piece music. It sounds like Abba on drugs. Edited August 10, 200717 yr by Alin
