1. The Chills” – Blue October – any song that starts with “take my hand
maybe we can run away” is an instant win for me. Still riding the high of the Blue October concert-this is on heavy rotation.
2. Estoy Enamarado – Chino And -Nacho – The problem is the vocal, which leads the horns into a light soprano. But the rhythm is a delight and wanyway, Latinas will love it.
3. Megawacko 2.1 – Abandon All Ships – yeah guilty pleasure
4. Mystery Train – Rick Danko, Richard Manuel – Presley's version is untouchable, but the harp here pulls out of the station and rols the live track.
5. Bury Us Alive – Starfucker – I hated this song for so long that I went 180 degrees and now love it- go figure.
6. Keeping The Faith – Billy Joel – Off what I consider his easiest, swingiest album, this is a timeless ode to early sixities pop music."Learn stickball as a formal occupation…" Wow, he could actually write a lyric that didn't make me throw up.
7. Don’t Let Me Cave In – The Wonder Years – awesome upbeat and great lyrics to scream in the car
8. Here We Go Again – Demi Lovato – Sure, this is product, and absoliutey, the cost for Demi is well documented, but this is a shiny pop babuble.
9. People In Love – Art Brut – cuz I am
10. Hotel Room Suite – Pitbull – Two years before Her Is, he was killing this at Jingle Ball and making believers of everybody there with this Reggaeton genre shake up. "One's a company, two's a crowd and three's a party"!
