"gay bar," from the Electric Six's debut. Great song - terrible record.

People I talk to usually like DSOTM but dislike money, I like em both. I didn't really like Lali Puna's Faking the Books but there was a track on there I think it was called Micronomic but it might be another one (track 5 or 6?) that I absolutely thought was awesome.

"Micronomic" was the single, and the one with the "where do you want to go" chorus. Oddly enough as I was about to post a different track from the same album ("Call 1-800-FEAR"- godawful title, fantastic song). Also "Hallo Spaceboy" from Bowie's Outside (though the Pet Shop Boys mix is better) and "M1A1" from the first Gorillaz album. I realize it's pretty bad, but the two sloppy chords, ridiculous "la la la hey" chorus, and opening Day of the Dead sample are quite fun.

I really haven't given them much of a chance, but I still find it kind of impossible to believe that Karen O. & the Blah Blah Blahs actually wrote, "Maps"...

I'll just call her Dr. Faustus from now on.

"can you see me shining?" on shelleydevoto's otherwise awful buzzkunst

"I" on Music from the Elder by Kiss
"Obsession" by Killing Joke on Outside the Gate
"Manna Machine" by the Stranglers on The Gospel According to The Menininblack (I actually love this record, though it's widely considered their worst)

Paul McCartney: "No More Lonely Night" ("Give My Regards To Broad Street" is hardly quite as classic as that great single)
