Spring Cleaning Playlist 2010

To me Spring cleaning is an opportunity to clean out the clutter of a long winter and start new.  Equally important it is an opportunity to get everyone out of the house and crank up some tunes at serious volume levels.  Here's my playlist for this year.  Forgive the commentary.....

• Float On (Modest Mouse) -- a sure fire cure for whatever ails ya
• Island In The Sun (Weezer) -- get into the zone
• Us and Them (Easy Star All-Stars) -- stay in the zone with this great remake of a classic
• 2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten (Lucinda Williams) -- a genius at blending gritty music and great story telling
• Fake Plastic Trees (Radiohead) -- favorite song by favorite band
• Last Goodbye (Jeff Buckley) -- indeed
• I Believe (REM) -- whenever i start to doubt myself i play this
• The Funeral (Band of Horses) -- epic
• Sympathy for the Devil (Rolling Stones) -- more epic
• Groove Me (King Floyd) -- 1970 new orleans funk
• Michigan (Ambulance Ltd) -- why did these guys stop making music?
• The Underdog (Spoon) -- dance with that vacuum
• The Pretender (Foo Fighters) -- rock it!!!!
• Blue (Jayhawks) -- good memories.....
• The Guide (Borne) -- if i could put my feelings about my kids into a 3 min song, this would be it.
• Happy Everafter in Your Eyes (Ben Harper) -- love this

Hope you enjoy!
