Well, song 2 is NTM and unidentifiable. "I Wanna"? Blur?

(Several songs pass including not bad U2 - Stuck in a Moment.)

BOS for "High Fidelity". Great movie.

Next song also unidentifiable. Interesting though.

ETA: It's Yo La Tengo. Enjoyable.

No need for "Yellow". I really didn't get why people thought Coldplay were the best thing since sliced bread based on this song.

I always joke that it's a song about Gwynneth's hair. But they didn't actually meet until 2002.

No Doubt - Ex-Girlfriend is NTM, but not particularly good.

NTM White Stripes. I give her lots of credit for rarity.

which makes up (I guess) for hearing "Bohemian Like You" for the umpteenth time.
