So Give Your Distance Now

And because I think it's an interesting glimpse into my personal life, and because I think these kind of updates are healthy and necessary, here are the ten post played songs, according to my iTunes:

1. "Hot Pursuit" - Bravery
2. "Shake Some Action" - Flaming Groovies
3. "The Two Sides on Monsieur Valentine" - Spoon
4. "Rage!" - Chromeo
5. "I Thought You Were My Boyfriend" - Magnetic Fields
6. "Be My Baby" - Ronettes
7. "Get It Get It" - Scissor Sisters
8. "Voodoo Lady" - Ween
9. "Hello Again" - Cars
10. "I Came as a Rat" - Modest Mouse

I was surprised as anyone, though I heartily recommend any of these for your ears. Perhaps more indicative of the present, here are the ten newest songs in my music collection:

1. "Dream Police" - Cheap Trick
2. "Soundtrack to Mary" - Soul Coughing
3. "Japanese Gum" - Her Space Holiday
4. "This Magic Moment" - Lou Reed
5. "A New Morning, Changing Weather" - International Noise Conspiracy
6. "Feel" - Big Star
7. "Flowers on the Wall" - Statler Brothers
8. "Witch Mountain Bridge" - Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks
9. "Celebration on the Planet Mars" - Raymond Scott
10. "Don't Sleep on the Subway" - Petula Clark

Totally more me than the top ten, though that seems like it should be the other way around, I know. Anyone with an opinion about any of these — or this or those, for that matter — is encouraged to share it.
