Eleventeen by Jared

1.) All This Time by The Heartless Bastards
You can't beat the line "Since you took my breath again, would you share your oxygen."

2.) Cindy Incidentally by The Faces
Everyone needs to own a copy of their album "Ooh La La."

3.) Free Tonight by Dri
Straight out of Lawrence, Kansas. She makes dance music for stoners.

4.) You Make Me Feel Good by The Zombies
This song was in heavy rotation on the jukebox at the bar I frequented back in Lawrence. It took me a year to figure out who played this song but I could sing a long without missing a beat.

5.) Bros by Panda Bear
So...what if it's a twelve minute song. It feels like I'm on a walking tour of a water colored fishing village in Portugal during the spring with a Brian Wilson impersonator as my guide.



6.) Proofs by Mates of State
I like organs.

7.) Let's Get Out of This Country by Camera Obscura
I enjoy listening to this song in airports or any mode of transportation.

8.) Diamond Ring by The Rosewood Thieves
When I'm sick of all my music I can always come back to these guys.

9.) Outta Mind (Outta Sight) by Wilco
There are two versions of this song on Wilco's Being There album. The other version may have been on Vanessa's mixtape.

10.) Prank Calls by Kelly Stoltz
If someone decides to make a movie about me I'd love for this song to be in the "feel good wrap up section" of the film. This song makes me smile.

11.) Queen Bitch by David Bowie
I don't claim to be able to read music or understand chord changes but I will say that this song is played in the key of fun. It makes me we want to cause trouble but in a good way, like that kid in Home Alone.

Yah, "Bros" is 12-minutes of bliss, like riding a horse-drawn sleigh through a psychedelic wonderland. The video, which I believe is still up on the YouTube, is a pageant of trails, blurry colors and a very cute cat.
