Better Than Ezra made a comeback in 2001? Somehow that had escaped my attention. ;)

Yep, their single from this album was "Extraordinary."  This was supposed to be the second single but their record company went kaput before it was released.

Nelly Furtado "I'm Like A Bird"

ETA: An acoustic performance, not the studio recording

This was a big pop hit, yes?  VHM on that basis alone.

Yes, but I wish Renee had played the actual studio recording rather than this live rendition...

Necessary Grades/Commentary:
David Byrne: A (it was a staple back in 01/02, not so much anymore)
Weezer: D- (see Mike's comment)
311: B (KFOG did give this a couple of spins, but more of an alt hit)
Dirty Vegas: A- (Top Ten pop)
Train: F- (don't need to explain)
Luce: B+ (first heard on KFOG, later an Alice staple)
Neil YOung: B+ (sounded good today)
Springsteen: C (sorry, kind of a downer today)
Better Than Ezra: A (most surprising entry of the set - is this the first time something besides "Good" was played on 10@10?)
Nelly Furtado: D- (only avoids F by being a different version)

10 2001 requests:

"Clint Eastwood", Gorillaz (RR has actually played "19-2000")
"Shit On The Radio", Nelly Furtado (although actually a 2002 hit, it did come from the same album as "I'm Like A Bird")
"Walking In My Blue Jeans", Sophie B Hawkins (also known as "Strange Thing") - if you really want to be daring, play "The Darkest Childe"
"All You Wanted", Michelle Branch (personal guilty pleasure)
"2003", Nina Gordon
"Haunted" or "Hey Pretty", Poe
"Evolution Revolution Love", Tricky f/ the guy from Live
"Schism", Tool
"Cherry Lips - Go Baby Go!" (Garbage)
"Speed Kills", Bush - a song whose title was changed to "The People That We Love" due to 9/11

BONUS: "How You Remind Me", Nickelback, just to see the Gsnipe reaction. Personally, I don't think the song's at all bad.

You never made it as a wise man.
