Goodie Bag 9/24
It's Sunday.. You know what time it is...
1. Heavens - Gardens -

IdiotSummer05: omg omg matt skiba and josiah steinbeck omg omg
BH3H: shut up
2. Nas - It Ain't Hard To Tell (Danger Mouse Remix) - Megahot producer Danger takes a shot at a classic cut from Nas's classic 1994 disc, Illmatic. The sample from "Human Nature" is replaced by mellow keys and the results are astounding.
***NOTE: Al Verik informs me that the song is actually a mash of "It Ain't Hard To Tell" and "Roads" by Portishead***
3. John Mayer - Kid A - This sounds infinitely better than it looks. I'm serious.
4. Iron & Wine - Waitin' For A Superman (Flaming Lips Cover) - Sam Beam has the innate ability to immediately make any song he covers his. The only other person I can think that's ever accomplished that is Johnny Cash. That's pretty good company.
5. Scissor Sisters - Lights - Pitchfork probably did a track review on this already, but whatever. I'm sort of on the fence with the Scissor Sisters. I like a few of their songs, and then the rest just falls flat. Regardless, their second disc is a lot better than their first - and the hook on this track is so..damn..catchy.
