The Chill Playlist

Here's the playlist for a Spring mix I made my friend recently. Inspired by the old WFUV 90.7, Satan, and Sara Hope. My favs are starred.

*Summer Skin - Death Cab for Cutie, off Plans ~ so beautiful.
32 Flavors – Ani DiFranco, off Living in Clip [Live] ~ gotta love Ani.
Sexual Healing (cover) – Ben Harper, off Live at the Hollywood Bowl [EP] ~ Ben Harper kept the soul but brought down the cheese factor.
Sung with the Birds – Ramona Cordova, off The Boy Who Floated Freely ~ pretty finger-picking.
*You’s a Bird – Broken Parachutes (Ezra Tenenbaum) ~ very fresh style.
*Hey Ya (cover) – Matt Weddle (of Obadiah Parker) ~ only OutKast song that makes me teary.
Honey I Been Thinking About You – Jackie Greene ~ kinda funny. still sweet.
When in Rome – Nickel Creek, off Why Should the Fire Die? ~ so poignant.
Children of December – The Slip, off Eisenhower
Freeway – Aimee Mann, off Smilers
The Man (with Natalie Maines) – Pete Yorn, off Westerns EP ~ nice Yorn. so spring-y.
Sunrise – Norah Jones, off Feels Like Home
Rain – Patty Griffin, off 1000 Kisses ~ this makes me cry. Patty is amazing.
While You Were Sleeping – Elvis Perkins, off Ash Wednesday ~ simple chord progression, amazing lyrics.
Lake Michigan – Rogue Wave, off Asleep At Heaven’s Gate ~ cool feel.
After Tonight – Justin Nozuka, off Holly ~ great tune, great voice. Justin's a cutie.
One Of These Things First – Nick Drake, off “Garden State” Soundtrack ~ pretty cool and unique.
*High And Dry – Radiohead, off The Bends ~ a classic. one of the most 'normal' Radiohead songs. still great.
