It's finally showing, for real this time, in NYC. To celebrate, this is what I listened to on the BilliPod shuffle on the way to work:
"You Are" by Pearl Jam, Live in Honolulu, 12/2/06
"A Man in a Purple Dress" by The Who, off of Endless Wire
"Miracle" by Foo Fighters, from In Your Honor
"All I Really Want" by Alanis Morissette, from Jagged Little Pill ("Why are you so petrified of silence?")
"All Because of You," from U2: Live from Under the Brooklyn Bridge
"Gimme Some Truth," Pearl Jam's cover of the John Lennon tune, their 2001 Fan Club single
Listen to "Gimme Some Truth", here, courtesy of I Am Fuel, You Are Friends. This linked post has a whole slew of the fan club singles.
"Georgia on My Mind" by Bill Charlap from his album Stardust
"Because," a stunning Beatles' cover by Elliott Smith, from the American Beauty soundtrack
"Steak Knife" by the Angry Samoans from their Unboxed Set
and
I ended with the following poem from Charles Bukowski Reads His Poetry:
"The Creation of the Morning Line"
Have you listened to the version of the Neil Young song "Don't Let it Bring You Down" by Annie Lennox that they used in American Beauty? I'm not a big fan of hers but she absolutely kills that song. It's great. I don't think it's on the soundtrack though...
