I really like that one.  What is the source for the extended live version that KFOG occasionally
plays?

I'm thinking it's from a Live From The Archives collection.

I'll cop to never getting tired of "Short Skirt/Long Jacket" or "Love You Madly". Actually, Cake's output as a whole has aged well, IMHO.

I've no real desire to hear 2001, with or without 9/11 clips, so I'll stick with my radio buddy Mr Bannon on 'LNG today.  Keep a running tally, kidz.

Ryan Adams New York, New York is the TOTHK. Tuned in late so no idea if there was any 9/11 content leading into that.

Off to get a fresh cup of tea.

I was really tired of John Mayer in general and The Real World in particular, but it sounds pretty good today. Absence did help with the heart on this one. When it first came out, I thought it was quite fine.

I would concur. I feel the same way about Gotye's "Somebody I Used To Know".

5. Guided By Voices: Chasing Heather Crazy NTM

So I'm AFK for about 10 minutes, the player says John Mayer, but I'm hearing Guided By Voices "Chasing Heather Crazy." Now that's not too shabby.

I'll third that. This is why the most useful songs for 10@10 are the ones that aren't in KFOG's (or other local stations') regular rotation.

jeebus -- this is becoming a regular KFOG thing; either AL playing something RR played or something from 10@10 showing up on KFOG the next morning.  AL posted "SS/LJ" on FB last nite, so I figured it was inevitable. She probably wanted to strangle Renee.

Def a song that reminds me of 2001 but only because it was in KFOG's heavy rotation then. Given that it has only dropped to medium since then, this is about as LN as they come.

Still, there are other songs off of that album that could make an appearance.

REM's "Imitation of Life" sounds pretty good. Not the most wonderful song, but it's been a while since I heard it.

Wow, when you say "just played it" you weren't kidding: 9:45 and then again at 10:08, per the station's playlist. That's just asinine.

I'd've gone for "All The Way To Reno".

Always a BOS for the Shins, even though this is probably their most overplayed song.

"Life on a Chain" is a good song, but KFOG killed it already.

8. Shins: New Slang
9. Pete Yorn: Life On A Chain

#9 is nails-on-a-chalkboard for me at this point.

I'm sure we'll hear it again if we ever do 2004, since it was in the movie Garden State that year.

(Jeebus I can't believe that flick was 10 years ago!)

That's how I feel about most of this set.  While NTM, none of it made much of an impression.
BOS Cake, although I recognize its LN aspect.  I am less enamored of Mayer and Luce, so I
more readily assign them LN status.
