some punky thing started out, then Pretenders "Night in My Veins" (from "Isle of View?")


"Isle of View" was their live CD, no?  "Night" was orig a studio track, methinks.  I'll catch up with this tonight if its osunds at all interesting from the comments... but I'm skeptical.
That's why I'm guessing, it wasn't the version I'm used to, even though I have "Isle of View."
I must be wrong, it isn't listed there.  Anyone else identify which album?

Last of the Independents
It just sounded different.  I guess I'm slipping. (slipped?)

I'm kinda surprised they haven't been showing up in the regular rotation -- I'd think that'd hit the soccer-mom sweet-spot.  ;)

Whoa, from Hootie to Sonic Youth's cover of Superstar?

a bunch of us requested Shonen Knife's "Top of the World" from that Carpenters tribute last time we did '94 but AL didn't bite.

Finally a song I can really give a BOS vote to.  Elastica "Connection", although I probably should have given one to Mazzy Star.

perusing the FB comments -- another wildly divisive '90s set. Some just looooove DMB , others want to slit their wrists.

We played Knife's version of "Top of the World" for my wife's segment of the now ubiquitous (and overly long) wedding reception slideshow of her photos from baby to all growned up. I think we also used it for our son's preschool end-of-the-year slideshow.

(Yay, Elastica.)

Yeah, Sonic Youth was like nails on a blackboard to me, while I'm sure others were saying: "cool!  this is really great!"

Sidenote re: wedding slideshows - I don't know if you've been to any weddings lately, but thank god we had an editor that made us cull through photos until we had no more than 36 photos for each of us, and then 36 "together".  3 songs and we were done. I've sat through slideshows with 100s of photos that either flashed by too quickly for you to register who/what was in them OR ran so long that people were leaving for bathroom/drink breaks. I blame Steve Jobs and Ken Burns. :-}

I thought it was a nice palate cleanser after Hootie.
