I'm getting tired of hearing the same songs all the time.

42. Pixies - Hey 43. Wire - Mannequin 44. Broken Social Scene - Anthems For a Seventeen Year Old Girl 45. Joe Jackson - I'm The Man 46. King Crimson - Book of Saturday 47. Genesis - Anyways (ok I repeated this band. you all can repeat also)
So do you understand what type of songs usually make my playlists (if you want to participate in this thread)? A little more upbeat or poppy but not annoyingly so... and stuff that isn't really played on the radio but kinda have that 'single' quality to them. Music that doesn't generally get annoying after lots of listens. Please Participate. I'm always looking for new music :)

48. OMD - Maid of Orleans 49. The Smiths - This Charming Man 50. Robert Wyatt - Dondestan, The Age of Self, East Timor, A Sunday in Madrid 51. Stereolab - Cybele's Reverie 52. His Name Is Alive - Here Forever Always Now 53. Wilco - Jesus Etc. 54. U.N.P.O.C. - I Love You Lady Luck 55. My Bloody Valentine - Loomer, When You Sleep 56. Led Zeppelin - The Crunge 57. Roxy Music - Pyjamarama 58.
The songs on my playlists usually have a bit of a weirdness/originality to them as opposed to straight up rock numbers or terribly catchy indie songs. Unfortunately my last hard drive got deleted so I don't remember all the songs I used to love.
thanks for mentioning The Lines song, I never heard it before and it sounds good.

58. Badly Drawn Boy - Cause a Rockslide 59. The Stone Roses - I Wanna Be Adored 60. The Zombies - I Want Her She Wants Me 61. Rory Erickson - You Don't Love Me Yet 62. Sufjan Stevens - John Wayne Gacy Jr. 63. Karate - With Age 64. The Cure - Love Cats
Now I'm trying to think of less annoying songs (than say some of the ones that I mentioned that are a bit too catchy) that still have that 'single vibe' and aren't too weird. I think I reached an end of songs that make it onto my mix cds (granted - the last 20 or so were ones I put on old mix cds and I might not use as much now). This ends my list.

It's hard to find songs that I like enough to hang onto nowadays. That's why I was asking for suggestions of your favorite songs.
― CaptainLorax, Tuesday, 25 March 2008 21:58 (eighteen years ago)
I'm gonna bump this for one more day.. I thought most people liked shoving their favorite songs down other peoples throats, more or less. The point being, If you can cater to me (your audience), I'll be forever grateful. Just list off some songs I might like starting at 65 please.
