- Waking The Jetstream-The Go! Team (A fun power pop tune, released a week ago.)
- Country Preacher-Cannonball Adderley (An Adderley favorite of mine that trundles along subtly, with short, recurring bursts of energy; I also recommend Roy Buchanan's version.)
- Keepsake-Craig Wuepper (Not just any song makes me want to sit in the car and listen until the tune is over; this smoky, unhurried piano piece did.)
- Like The Weather-10,000 Maniacs (One of the band's best-crafted melodies. Also recommended: "Don't Talk," "Verdi Cries," and "Trouble Me.")
- Breakfast At Tiffany's-Deep Blue Something (One of the better '90s one-hit wonder songs; the lyrics convey a universal feeling of realizing you have almost nothing in common with someone and knowing it's best to cut your losses.)
- One Way Or Another-Blondie (Blondie absolutely sells the line, "I'm gonna getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha..." and the whole "one way or another" concept. Worth seeking out: The "Veronica Mars" scene in which Kristen Bell sings this.)
