Mayday! Mayday! assuming '90s, hoping for '60s. The latter would be a nice B-day present for Lightnin' Rod.
ETA: it's 2001 -- "Terrorism hit the US and Bjork wore that goose dress", sez Renee. I kid U not.
-
Our first 2001 set since... March 2012? Wow. This is what AL gave us that day:
1. Weezer - Island in the Sun
2. Cake - Love You Madly
(Movie: "A Beautiful Mind" - Nash (Russell Crowe) wants Alicia (Jennifer Connelly)
3. Coldplay - Shiver
4. Eddie Vedder - You've Got to Hide Your Love Away
(News: Diane Sawyer reporting - First reports of an explosion at the World Trade Center in New York City...)
5. Enya - Only Time
6. Rufus Wainwright - Across the Universe (B.O.S!)
7. Ryan Adams - New York, New York
(TV: SNL - Drunk Girl (Jeff Richards) - "I hate you, Jimmy Fallon - I hate you, I love you, I hate you....")
8. Johnny A. - Oh Yeah
(Movie: "Shrek" - Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow) interrogates The Gingerbread Man, "Run, Run Run as fast as you can... Do you know the Muffin Man?)
9. Guided By Voices - Chasing Heather Crazy
10. Sugar Ray - When It's Over
Tim played the Weezer song in the 9:00 hour (not that that would stop Renee from playing it again)

So much for the b-day present. >:(
Maybe we'll get the sixties for Mike tomorrow.
-
and as has been pointed out on FB, it was a SWAN dress, not a goose. Renee scores again.
-
Renee lives in Fairfax? when did she move? I remember her talking about living on South Van Ness.

IIRC, sometime in February. The first RR classic was played and the next day Rosalie did the Mardi Gras set in her absence while she moved.

TOTHK - Jimmy Eat World "The Middle"
-
Yo, Jimmy: eat THIS.
LN to a song that's been played in at least 2 different years in the past.
-
No Doubt "Underneath It All"
-
No Doubt "Underneath It All"
not my fave of theirs but not one I've heard a billion times, either.
-
uber-uber-LN2: Cake, touring the facility.
-
Cake "Short Skirt Long Jacket"
-
John Mayer "Your Body Is A Wonderland"
-
Yes, I'm actually gonna VHM John Mayer. Call me a sap.
-
Zero 7. Yay!
-
BOS Zero 7. LOVE this entire album. Great live, too.
-
Zero 7. Yay!
Totally NTM -- where did this get airplay? certainly not on KFOG. Our snoozy rarity.
-
and now a snoozy LN3: Jack Johnson. WOS too.
-
Zero 7 featuring Sia "Destiny" followed by Jack Johnson "Flake"
-
Zero 7. Yay!
Totally NTM -- where did this get airplay? certainly not on KFOG. Our snoozy rarity.
It actually did decently on KFOG (and most AAA stations)...it was even on their LFTA #9. Too bad it hasn't gotten much airplay since, although I heard Dred spin it once last year in the 11PM hour.
-

Right on, brutha! This is the good kind of snooze. I love this whole genre (Zero 7, Air, Massive Attack sometimes, Stereolab sometimes). What would you call it? Space Age Bachelor Pad Music?
I don't think Zero 7 or others in this genre got much radio airplay, but Space Age bachelors found it. Zero 7 did have a song on the Garden State soundtrack, though, In the Waiting Line.

News to me -- sure doesn't seem to be in their 2001 wheelhouse.
NOOOOOOOO!!! LN4 and WOS2 DMB. The space is between your ears, doofus.
-
BOS2 Jack Johnson, loved this one at the time. But this is probably his only song that will get that from me.
-
Dave Matthews Band "The Space Between"
-
and now a snoozy LN3: Jack Johnson. WOS too.
Ironically enough, this song was my (now) wife's wake-up music when we first started dating. Of course, the snooze bar was often hit.
-
VHM PG and, um, that chick whose name escapes me.
-
VHM PG and, um, that chick whose name escapes me.
Is this a re-make of Biko?
-
Afro Celt Sound System "When You're Falling"
-

Is this a re-make of Biko?
bwahahaha!
I remember it was on the "banned songs" list after 9/11 because the lyric about "you're a falling angel with your wings set alight" supposedly evoked images of people jumping from the windows of the WTC. (that's Clear Channel logic, not mine)
Afro Celt Sound System -- thanks for the ID Cap'n. I was confusing them with that woman Dave Matthews discovered around that time.
Good gawd: uber-uber-WOS3 Nickelstank. or Hoobaback. or whoever.

Nickelback "How You Remind Me"
-
I'm going to VHM Nickelback, because
1) It was refreshing to see this song at the top of the CHR/Pop charts when virtually everything else at that time was annoying rap songs with vapid lyrics, and
2) I don't mind them nearly as much as every trendy magazine and website seems to insinuate everyone should
3) The gutsy factor, for them playing it, although they could have really been gutsy and played "Too Bad," "Feelin' Way Too Damn Good," etc...
-
Pete Yorn "Strange Condition"
-

it does pop up in KFOG rotay occasionally. I just cannot stand his voice -- the absolute worst of the "I wanna be a cross between Kurt C and Eddie V" school of vocalizing.
VHM Pete Yorn.

"Space Age Bachelor Pad Music" works. ;D No joke, in the mid 00's I used to to zone out to this (and others such as Royksopp, Tosca, Blue Six, Delerium) in my pad which was complete with ikea furniture, mini bamboo plants, and blue lights.
-
oh, Clooney, you devil. *swoon*
-

4. John Mayer - Your Body Is A Wonderland
5. Zero 7 - Destiny
6. Jack Johnson - Flake

Sometimes the conventional wisdom is right. As in, "Nickelback is horrible."

3. Cake - Short Skirt, No Panties
Paris, Britney, Lindsay . . .

LOL: I missed that. I usually edit the setlist that gets posted on FB to eliminate the snark. Just corrected it. Light on the clips today, and RR avoided 9/11.

Likes this.
Seriously, the amount of hate they generate is grossly out of proportion with their lack of quality. No, they're not Led Zep, but ya know, not too many are.

3. Cake - Short Skirt, No Panties
Thanks for correcting. That was seriously infantile.

LOL, thanks for fixing that. I missed it too because while some of his clip descriptors are obnoxious, I didn't look for AW to change the song titles too. :-X

Cake "Short Skirt Long Jacket"
KFOG occasionally plays an extended live version of this... does anyone know where/if it's
available? It doesn't seem to be part of the "Live From the Archvies" series.
-
BOS Zero 7. LOVE this entire album. Great live, too.
Agree 100%. Love this song and the whole album. Great stuff.
-
Zero 7. Yay!
Totally NTM -- where did this get airplay? certainly not on KFOG. Our snoozy rarity.
Dunno if it got played "back in the day," but I've certainly heard it on KFOG in the past few
years. There was also a promotion with concert tickets, somewhere between two and six
years ago. I can't pin it down any better than that.
-
Listening to the replay. I like the Peter Gabriel (well Afro Celt) and Zero 7 tracks.
The term for what you hate about Nickelback is "yarling". It's when you use a long, affected "R" sound under every word.

Uh, Esquivel has defined the "Space Age Bachelor Pad" genre so uniquely that I don't think that
label fits very well. Zero 7 is generally regarded as "acid jazz" or "trip hop," and if you want to
get more specific, the mellow examples of those styles are known as "chill-out music."
Way back when I had Comcrap, they had an acid jazz music channel, where I heard Zero 7,
Ursula 1000, 4Hero, and the like.

Dave Matthews Band "The Space Between"
Another band that I think gets undeservedly dissed on this board. Sure, I can understand
that someone might not like them, particularly with the "sensitive new-age guy" aspect of
their songs. But at least they are skilled musicians who know how to create music, as opposed
to some bands that simply make noise by banging on their instruments. (I'm looking at you, White Stripes.)

In my mind DMB were ok up through said album, which was the beginning of their descent but still had a couple of decent tracks...The Space Between being one of them. I blorf upon everything they've released since. For the record, I don't love the White Stripes either (although their first album had a couple of good tracks), but Jack White's solo stuff is arguably 10 times more annoying. J. White is a competent songwriter...when one of his songs is covered by someone who actually can sing, the result is usually pretty good (Onerepublic's remake of "Seven Nation Army" was impressive.) That's also what made "I'm Shakin'" such a tragedy -- it's Jack White singing without Jack White songwriting, a reversal of nature.
Edit: I forgot about the 2002 DMB alum "Busted Stuff." That one was good, and released post-Everyday, although most of the tracks were recorded pre-Everyday.

Yeah, it's hard to consider "Busted Stuff" as a true 2002 release. Sort of DMB's "Songs In The Attic". Would agree that marked their turning point.
