So my schedule for this month has me at the Voice every Monday from 11am to 1am and every Friday from 11am to 9pm. This takes me out of commission for a lot of sets, including today's, which I'm quite enjoying. I'd only heard Counting Crows' "American Girls" once before: I was actually back in SF for a visit a couple years ago, and was playing KFOG all morning. Heard Norah Jones's "Don't Know Why" for the first time (I'd never heard of her and initially misidentified the track as Phoebe Snow making a comeback) at my friend Brandon's in the Western Addition; then, while walking up Post into Laurel Heights, heard "American Girls" and thought it was perfectly sunny and lovely. Yeah, Adam wanted a hit REAL BAD, and that wasn't it. Still a nice track.
What I would have REALLY liked, though, would be to hear the debut or breakthrough song for each artist in this set. For the Airplane, I would have played "It's No Secret," to bring things back home to the Matrix.
