Weekly Mix Tape Pt 41

 2005 going on and going sorta' strong. Enjoy the sounds and such

1. Danger! High Voltage by Electric Six
This is a fake band with Jack White singing back up vocals
2. Love Buzz by Nirvana
Very early Nirvana
3. Jesus Walks by Kanye West
I think this was before he said George W. Bush didn't like black people 
4. Christian, Christian by The Start
This is what an independent Los Angeles band sounds like
5. Tear You Apart by She Wants Revenge
This is what we're supposed to think an independent L.A. band is supposed to sound like
6. Satisfaction by Benny Benassi & The Bizz
You know this songs from dance clubs and burger commercials
7. Everybody Wants You by Billy Squier
Wellesley MA.'s own rock star.
8. Kick It by Peaches & Iggy Pop
Some duets are better but few are as weirdly entertaining
9. Don't Go by Yaz
This song is not by Red Sox great Carl Yestremski butu by a couple of U.K. musicians
10.Rite Of Shiva by Machines Of Loving Grace
Machines of Loving Grace filled the void while Nine Inch Nails were busy touring and recording new material
11.Dare by Gorillaz
Listen close as the former Happy Mondays singer lends his Manchester vocals to this track
12.Oh! Darling by The Beatles
Short and sweet
13.Glamour Is a Rocky Road by My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult
 This band was edgy at one point
14.Save It For Later by The English Beat
Ska flavored pop
15.Holding Out For A Hero, Bonnie Tyler
She had another hit besides Total Eclipse of the Heart and this epic, over the top work out tempo song was it
16.America, Fuck Yeah by Team America
From the movie, Team America
17.Eleanor Put Your Boots On by Franz Ferdinand
Is Brooklyn dirt nice?
18.Fisherman's Blues by The Waterboys
A modern day folk song.
19.I've Been Everywhere by Johnny Cash
As heard in commercials
20.The Denial Twist by The White Stripes
More stripped down rock
21.Skin by Madelia
This is what mid decade San Francisco bands sounded like . . . not really. They put on a great live show.
22.The Boys of Summer by Don Henley
I have to say that this song is undeniable in it's somberness that transcends your musical biases.

  1. "holding out for a hero" is from footloose (i think)
