Still listening to the Cars. Had this on 11 on the drive in to work this morning.

I love The Cars. Benjamin Orr’s vocals were always so good.

Everything But The Girl has been one of my favorite bands ever since high school. Ben Watt is such a fantastic musician and Tracey Thorn’s voice is amazing. I think I’ve seen them live a few times, but that was in the late 80’s/early 90’s… so long ago. These versions of Each and Every One and Rollercoaster are fantastic.

Listening to Capsule a lot these days! Love them.

My second favorite My Little Lover song, from 2001.

We were driving somewhere the other day listening to Crystal Kay when this song came on and I remembered it from one of my favorite CMs when I lived in Japan. In fact, I blogged about it a while back. The song was actually written by Yoko Kanno who is well-known for her soundtrack work in anime and television. It’s such a great song!

Koa and I were driving home from Kungfu class yesterday when the iPod started playing Bauhaus’ Stigmata Martyr. I turned it up and Koa didn’t seem to mind. That’s my boy.

I had the pleasure of seeing the Skatalites way back around ‘91 at the Palace in Hollyweird and it was probably the most fun I’ve had at a show. I think it was because it was nonstop ska and dancing. By the time we left the show, we were all drenched with sweat and I was so sore the next day. The Skatalites are just super. If you can catch one of their shows, definitely recommended!

Read a great post over at Amiyudas and figured I’d post my favorite Puffy (AmiYumi) song. Be warned, it’s an oldie!
