234 Zwitterion

  1. Mistakes; Sharon Van Etten maybe now I'll finally remember the difference between Sharon Van Etten and Great Van Fleet?
  2. Cadillac Ranch; Bruce Springsteen
  3. Tried To Be True; Indigo Girls
  4. Just A Kid; Wilco with The Blisters
  5. Lonely Ol Night; John Cougar Mellencamp
  6. Movie; Hush Club
  7. Smokin; Boston
  8. All I Can Do; Dolly Parton
  9. Just About Glad; Elvis Costello
  10. Just Because; Elvis Presley
  11. Buttons and Bows; Gene Autry I have this new habit, when re-reading my favorite novels, where I do my own footnotes: if the book mentions a song or some other cultural reference I don't understand, I look it up. In a Spenser novel last summer, Spenser mentioned that the cop directing traffic in Leverett Circle was whistling "Buttons and Bows", so here we are.
  12. Temporary Secretary; Paul McCartney
  13. Want You; The Bangles
  14. Hold On; En Vogue
  15. No Better; Lorde appeared on Seth Meyers' show Day Drinking, which inspired me to dig up some more of her singles.
  16. Secret; Madonna
  17. Heart; Nick Lowe
  18. She's So High; Blur I was watching Richard Ayoade's Gadget Man and his guest one week was "bass player Alex James" as if I was supposed to know who that was. Turns out there's this UK band called Blur that are quite successful across the pond ;-)
  19. Kashmir; Led Zeppelin somehow I never put this on a playlist before? 
  20. Bags; Clairo
  21. I'm In Love with a German Film Star; The Passions I bought a Underground Music box set at a friend's yard sale many years ago. Since I began driving a truck with a CD player, I'm listening to all the box sets I ever ignored, so that's where I found this song.
