1. Rich Girls – Fitz And The Tantrums – Mike Fitz may one day figure how to translate his exhilarating blue eyed dance music on to a record. But he didn't at daytrotter, and he hasn't here. This was a glorious singalong at Summerstage yesterday but nothing but a shrug on the album. He needs a real good dance producer, maybe Mark Ronson, to translate it.
2 You're A Friend Of Mine – Clarence Clemons And Jackson Browne – Of its moment, sure, but another reason to mourn the big man
3. Be So True – Total babes – Another teen romance slice of the most modern rock on the block. Modern as in it sounds like it was recorded in their garage at 3pm on a Sunday afternoon with the sun pouring thru the garage door. A bright, sweet, sincere sound of longing.
4. Hot Fun Summertime – Sly And the Family Stone with Bootsy Collins –
5. Love You Like A Love Song – Selena Gomez – I hope she makes it back to Jungle Ball this year.
6. Bring The Light – Beady Eye
7. Sonatina In D Minor – Another Earth Soundtrack Really lovely piano deep melody.
8. 1+1 – Beyonce
9. Untold Stories Buju Banton – Off his masterpiece, 'Til Shiloh.
10. Honey Dove – Lee Fields And The Explorers – The opposite of Fitz, his dark brooding soul songs work better on record.
