All of our dreams are wrong -- my favorite "My Favorite" mp3s.

[Codreanu]

Three mp3s from the New York retro-pop band "My Favorite". The duo attempt a revalourization of '80's style "mope rock" -- all fans of Moz/Smiths and eighties music should give these a listen.

Le Monster - "I am tired of taking pills to make me feel better."

John Dark (Goodnight, Major Tom) - "I went to your room and I laid in your bed and I looked out your window, back towards my house."

Half There and Dancing - "I'm not a saint, I'm not a soldier. I'm just a picture frame that could not hold her."

Love the title of this one.

"I'm not a saint, I'm not a soldier. I'm just a picture
frame that could not hold her."

This is my fave of the three. I really like the piano in it.

Then you might like this one:
The Lesser Saints

This is my favorite song of theirs -- I did not post this above because I had previously included this as the penultimate (minus the coda) track of my first "mix".

I really like this one. I was just cleaning my wood floors in my living room while listening to it. I am a big fan of the piano. I suppose that is why I was a fan of Billy Joel's music -- even saw him in concert, which was excellent BTW.

One of my favorite songs which is paino laden is Us by Regina Spektor. This is actually one of my favorite songs of all time.

Us

They made a statue of us
And it put it on a mountain top
Now tourists come and stare at us
Blow bubbles with their gum
Take photographs for fun, for fun

They'll name a city after us
And later say it's all our fault
Then they'll give us a talking to
Then they'll give us a talking to
Because they've got years of experience
We're living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
We're living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious

We wear our scarves just like a noose
But not 'cause we want eternal sleep
And though our parts are slightly used
New ones are slave labor you can keep

We're living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
We're living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious

They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
The tourists come and stare at us
The sculptor's mama sends regards
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
We're living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
Were living in a den of thieves

And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious

Muskogee.

If St. Augustine is allowed to simultaneously refer to his Mother (the Church) as a Whore and his Great Love, than, I suppose, I am all the more permitted to detest my city and locale, whilst affectionately calling her HOME.

More prosiacally, most of my family happens to be in the area.
