1. Ruin – Cat Power – With a superb lick playing all the way through the song, and Cat Power's distilled dramatic vocals, this is actually much better than I claimed it was yesterday. Plus the hook is soooo good, "what are we doing, we're sitting on ruin. And she makes us wait two minutes. The moral: WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR THE DAMN HOOK – Grade: A
2. Doubt – The Corin Tucker Band – We all knew this metally cruncher was the keeper> If her follow up album has five of em, Wild Flag should change their name to White Flag – Grade: A
3. Die In Your Arms – Justin Bieber – Easily the best song on the Justin is legal album, it survives the MJ comparisons and is heartfelt albeit written by committee – Grade: A
4. Anything We Want – Fiona Apple – Repays close listening with a sense of impending doom – Grade: B+
5. Body Of Work – The Mynabirds – melodic a touch whatever but the beats are really good – Grade: B
6. Gold Rush – Ed Sheeran – Starts like Jack Johnson, ends like Ed Sheeran – Grade: B
7. Please, Please, Please – James Brown – how far back does this go? he was playing it in the 1950s – Grade: A+
8. Feel Like A Rock Star – Kenny Chesney – Sound like a douche Bag – Grade: F
9. Show Me – Usher – there's gotta be a way for this guy to make a buck – Grade: C+
10. Can't Stop My Money – Sorta martial beat throw down with typical (read: crappy) lyric – Grade: B
