I Prefer My Prose Terse, Like _________

Need New Body - "Show Me Your Heart"

It's very early in the morning. And Need New Body is not the way to get your day started. Unless you prefer driving electropulses and a freaking catchy percussion section this early in the morning. I prefer to start the day with a whimper, but to each, you know? I love the first 1:30 of this song, it's so promissory, but then the vocals kind of hurt the momentum ('cause we want your heart' said by monster = not cool). But then they stop speak-singing and let the song carry on its merry way. Through computer circuitry, or one of those tubes for sending messages around a big factory, full of turns. [Buy]

The Pauls - Cantankerous Brute

In the same way the last song throws you into motion, so do The Pauls. Best 2 lines: "I don't want to be with you all of the time, but I'd just feel a whole lot better if I was always on your mind". It's too bad they sound so much like Lou Reed singing for the Unicorns. Actually, it's not too bad, I like those bands. Thanks to Tim for this. [I don't think you can buy this, and they don't have a website that I could find]

les boys: let's love, not hate.

and sancho, m4as should play in your mp3 player, iTunes and Winamp will both work.

i think it's more the fact that the link/file is broken.

If you keep moving the cursor back, that minute thirty turns into at least three; nine if you really romantic.
