It's been a weekend
1. Voxtrot - Trouble
Understand it's a curse
You've got trouble in your blood
Write a song, second verse
Underneath it there's a love
Recognize the hings you do
You make a mess but baby, you know who
It sounds impossible but, man, it's true
You're are the bad, the bad seed of this town
2. The Decemberists - July, July!
this is the story of the road that goes to my house
and what ghosts there do remain
and all the toughs that run the length and breadth of my house
and the chickens how they rattle chicken chains
3. Frightened Rabbit - Swim Until You Can't See Land
Up to my knees now, do I wait? Do I dive?
The sea has seen my like before though it's my first
And perhaps last time.
Let's call me a baptist, call this the drowning of the past
She's there on the shoreline
Throwing stones at my back
4. Polly Paulusma - She Moves in Secret Ways
So the devil sings higher
Oh just look at what you're doing, yeah
He's joined by a choir
Of doctors and statesmen
Who planned their sorry days till the last day's end
But look at all the happy things that happen by accident
5. Sufjan Stevens - Decatur, Or, Round Of Applause for Your Step-Mother!
Chickenmobile with your rooster tail
I had my fill and I know how bad it feels
Stay awake and watch for the data
No small caterpillar, go congratulate her
6. Amanda Palmer - In My Mind (feat. Brian Viglione)
Not like me now
I'm so busy with everything
That I don't look at anything
But I'm sure I'll look when I am older
7. Jose Gonzalez - Down The Line
I see problems down the line
I know that I'm right
I see darkness down the line
I know it's hard to fight
There was dirt upon your hands
doing the same mistake twice
making the same mistake twice.
8. Shout Out Louds - You Are Dreaming
Say what you say, I am listening, I am all ears
But if you still believe I'm thinking of you
you are dreaming, yes you are dreaming.
9. Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova - The Moon
And my friends are past this game, of breakdowns
And our friends that are lost at sea, throw down
And I'll break the wasted space
Slow down, slow down
10. Antony and the Johnsons - What Can I Do? (feat. Rufus Wainwright)
What can I do
When she's calling my name
She's crying
Mama, help me to live
What can I do
11. St. Vincent - All My Stars Aligned
I check my palms
The cracks in the sidewalk
My visions and my dreams
I cross all my fingers
That you'll be someone
That won't be forgotten
What was your question
I've got the answer
12. Jason Webley - There's Not A Step We Can Take That Does Not Bring Us Closer.
We are army ants, we are worker bees,
We are salmon in the stream after years at sea,
And this is blind man's bluff, but we don't need to see,
13. Devotchka - How It Ends
Now you've seen his face.
And you know that there's a place,
In the sun,
For all that you've done,
For you and your children.
No longer shall you need.
You always wanted to believe,
Just ask and you'll receive,
Beyond your wildest dreams.
Understand it's a curse
You've got trouble in your blood
Write a song, second verse
Underneath it there's a love
Recognize the hings you do
You make a mess but baby, you know who
It sounds impossible but, man, it's true
You're are the bad, the bad seed of this town
