Notes this week:
- Why is it that everytime I hear "Natasha" I get all swoony?
- When Wilco played "You Never Know" live they were joined onstage by Liam Finn -- so lovely!
- That Raveonettes song? How can you not sing along to every harmony?
- I say YES to the UnSettlers!!!
- When Wilco played "Jesus, Etc" they did it as a whole auditorium singalong from the edge of the stage. Sweetness!
- Said the Whale: this record is winning top spot for me lately...
- Dear Pete & Scarlett: Nice job on the Big Star....
- Speaking of Phantom Planet -- are you watching Jason Schwartzman's new show on HBO? So funny!
- Kudos to Cuff the Duke on a stellar new record -- way to pick it up!!
- Tracy and Jen's cover of the Magnetic Fields "Yeah! Oh,yeah!" is beyond wonderful. What's with all the great covers of M.F's stuff?
- "National Hum" might be one of the greatest album lead-off tracks ever
