Playlists -- Girl's Names: Part 1

There's a reason it's a classic. And there's a reason this is a 2-part series... and that would be that I love Interpol and Malajube's music videos and could not choose between the two. Moving on... Whether it's love or the aftermath, every girl has a song with her name in it. She can only hope it's something along the lines of Mobius Band's "Hallie" and not Nerf Herder's "Annalee." Although they're both pretty catchy. Maybe she'll take the "streetwalker shoes" over nothing at all.

The Lineup:

1. "Hallie" by Mobius Band (Live)

2. "Ann Disaster" by Ben Kweller (Live - Solo, last.fm)

3. "Mary" by The Maccabees (Live)

4. "Vivian" by Nerf Herder (Live)

5. "Emily Kane" by Art Brut (Official)

Video. "Stella Was a Diver" by Interpol (Live)

Playlists -- Art Brut

Just because I've gotten lazy and I want to put up a new playlist, I give you Art Brut. If you haven't heard of them, they're all about rock 'n roll and "Yes. That is my singing voice." Because they "formed a band," yes, they "formed a band." End of my fun. If this makes no sense, refer to "Formed a Band." If you don't like it, I'll tell you right now that neither did I when I first heard it. But if you don't laugh when they say, "I've seen her naked... twice!" you're made of stone. Or you just don't get Art Brut.

The Lineup:

1. "Formed a Band" by Art Brut (Live)

2. "St. Pauli" by Art Brut (Live)

3. "Alcoholics Unanimous" by Art Brut (Official)

4. "The Passenger" by Art Brut (Live on KEXP)

5. "Direct Hit" by Art Brut (Official)

Video. "Pump up the Volume" by Art Brut

Playlists -- Nerd Songs

Tonight's playlist is all Nerd Songs, in honor of my post on Jean-Claude in the Anita Blake comics. It's Marvel, not DC, but it's still a tad bit nerdy.

The Lineup:

1. "DC Comics and Chocolate Milkshake" by Art Brut (Live at KEXP)

2. "Mr. Spock" by Nerf Herder (Official Video)

3. "And I Was a Boy from School" by Hot Chip (Official Video)

4. "Supergirl and Superboy" by Tullycraft (Live)

5. "Flickr" by Jonathan Coulton (Official-ish Video with Pictures)

Video. "Japan is an Island" by The Spinto Band (Atari is for nerds!)
