Conversation Suicide
 Eggshells
 Kinda un-Phlegm-like, but still good nonetheless. Great melody in the verse that shines through the murky production. added to station 9/3/2008 11:50:11 AM 		Pop 5636

The Man With No Band
 Whiskey Symphony
 Sam simply embodies music. He lives it and breathes it. It is what sustains him. Listening to this song (or any of his songs), there is no doubt about it. added to station 9/4/2008 12:51:04 PM 		Miscellaneous 5636

The Man With No Band
 Thinkin' 'bout You
 Yeah, so I'm adding another one of Sam's songs within 5 minutes of adding the other. Sue me. This is an amazing song that reminds me a bit of a sad John Prine. Come to Chicago Sam, you'll be welcomed at the Old Town School, no doubt. added to station 9/4/2008 12:53:50 PM 		Easy Listening/Soft Rock 5636

The Squire Of Somerton
 Transverberations
 Oh yeah! Real psych music from a current band. Reminds me a bit of The Dukes Of Stratosphear, or an updated Syd Barrett or some other such classic English psychadelic music. They totally nailed the sound, while still somehow sounding current; a very neat trick. added to station 9/8/2008 12:38:07 PM 		Rock 5636

Shatner
 It's Time
 New Wave pop with a great melody and upbeat feel. Reminds me a little of something that just didn't quite make it here in the States. Love the accent too. added to station 9/8/2008 5:54:45 PM 		Alternative Pop Rock 5636

Ester Andújar
 Páginas Preciosas
 Wow. Lovely Jazzy, Brazilian, Pop. Tropicalia. Yes! Reminds me a bit of a female Caetano Veloso. If you don't know what that means, you should go find out. But first, start out by listening to this excellent tune from Ester. Strange that she's not Brazilian, but Spanish. added to station 8/27/2008 3:02:02 PM 		Miscellaneous 5636

 Talk to Me
 Heard this on the Underground 40 station. It (obviously) caught my ear and then wormed it's way in. And I couldn't get it out. Nor did I want to. Great stuff - reminiscent of You Am I, at least to my ears. added to station 4/9/2008 1:12:28 PM 		Alternative Pop Rock 5636

Conversation Suicide
 Tell Me Why (so Schitzo)
 Phlegm says that this is "derivative". So be it. I guess that I like derivative. Great hook and DIY aesthetic. It's everything that I like about the early 80's... even if it is 2008! Ain't nothing wrong with that. Just a great song.l added to station 8/23/2008 7:03:36 PM 		Pop 5636

 I'll See You In My Dreams
 Why isn't this man famous outside of this community? Such wonderful songs and such a lot of talent... with an approach that is completely commercial-friendly.

 Kill all humans
 Great Armenian psych-pop. Always from the most unlikely sources, huh? So good, catchy, bouncy. Think a more-authentic 60's feel for the Elephant 6. added to station 5/21/2008 3:21:47 PM 		Alternative Retro and Psychedelic 5636

 Sitar - Sanjeeb Sircar
 Despite the fact that a 20- or 45-minute raga would be difficult to put on any station, this is WAAAAYYYYYY too short a clip for as beautiful a song as this is. I am waiting for more from you, Sanjeeb. And, at least 3- or 4-minute clips from you, eh? wow. added to station 5/15/2008 6:27:14 PM 		World 5636

 Nancy Drew
 The band's namesake album is one of my favorites of all-time. This song is keeping right in-line with the great tradition of Wire: hit hard, hit fast, and get out while they're still reeling. Great tune. added to station 8/26/2008 7:34:34 PM 		Indie Pop 5636
