Neil Young - Good to See You Again (I got the idea to open with this song more than a year ago, a message from the DJ to the listeners
)
Rusted Root - Ecstasy (This band had a radio hit in the early 90's (Send Me on the Way) that I liked, I bought the CD, and this song IMMEDIATELY caught my attention!)
English Beat - I Confess (great alt rock/ska tune)
Public Broadcasting Service - Go! (if you are not tapping your feet, check your pulse!)
The Who - All This Music Must Fade (from their last release, actually quite good)
Joe Jackson - You Can't Get What You Want (underrated artist in my opinion)
Postal Service - The District Sleeps Alone Tonight (reminds me of a fling from over a decade ago, Dillon, and a great side project of the lead singer from Death Cab For Cutie)
Sarah Mclachlan - The Path of Thorns (Terms)
Tears For Fears - Head Over Heels/Broken (this and the next 5 songs are from my "Bethany" playlist)
Fitz & the Tantrums - Out of My League
INXS - Beautiful Girl
Thomas Dolby - The Beauty of a Dream
U2 - With or Without You
LCD Soundsystem - I Can Change
Bishop Briggs - Can Your Hear Me Now? (pretty good relatively recent rock)
Blue Cheer - Peace of Mind (an old classic)
Chemical Brothers - KDB (I like this)
The Bangles - Hazy Shade of Winter (pretty good S&G cover)
Freddy Jones Band - Living in a Daydream (I think I may have played this one once before, but a good tune from a relatively unknown band)
Foals - Mountain at the Gates (ditto)
Dinosaur Jr - Feel the Pain (lots of memories from the early 90's alt rock era)
Happypills - Moonbeam
Counting Crows - Goodnight Elisabeth (one of my favorite bands of all time)
Roger Daltrey - Parade (sleeper tune from a great album)
K's Choice - I'm Not an Addict (nice slow builder)
Moby - My Only Love (he chose his artist name because his great great grand uncle was Herman Melville, author of Moby Dick)
