1. The John Butler Trio - Peaches and Cream (Live at St. Gallen): Great intro/dedication for his wife...This version is great, acoustic guitars, skating, great vocals make this one a good rival to the studio version...9/10 Great ballad...
2. The Roots - Star/pointro: This is one of my favorite Roots song...The groove is impossible to dislike and the message is transcendent... 7:30+min of funky,soulful, hip-hop greatness... 10/10 Light up that bong and fade away....bongsmilie
3. The Hives - Try it Again: Typical Hives goodness...This one is special because it starts/ends with the left,right channel fading and the cheery chorus'...It also contains one of my favorite quotes, "The definition of madness is doing the same thing expecting different results"....I can't wait to see these guys at Sasquatch... 8/10 This song is just plain fun...
4. The Game - Da Shit: A DJ Khalil produced track from The Game's second record...This one is a better than average west coast gangsta boast song...The beat is al little off putting at first but by the first chorus it grows...6/10Solid crusin' song...
5. Elliott Smith - Riot Coming: From his second Posthumous record New Moon, this track is standard Smith faire...Great acoustic guitar work, tense vocals and an almost upbeat chorus make this a pretty solid song overall, it's neither Smith's best or worst song...6/10 With no real wow factor this may be a track often skipped...

It's so controlled, it's sitting in most, just sit and stare,
At a television with a distant glare,
And I'm ashamed to admit it, I'm a slave to this shit,
As much as anybody but I'm not afraid of it,
This is where the change comes, and this is where we make some difference,
Embrace what's within us and escape from this prison,
All it takes is a little bit of faith,
And a little bit of love, to get rid of all the hate,
