iTunes Shuffle 9/19/14

1. Kristoffer Ragnstam - "Sorry For Being The Man Of 1000 Questions"
2. Amos Lee - "Colors"
3. Radiohead - "All I Need"
4. Matthew Mayfield - "Cold Winds"
5. Miike Snow - "Paddling Out" (Jacques lu Cont remix)
6. Banjo Or Freakout - "Mr. No"
7. Fountains Of Wayne - "Richie And Ruben"
8. Pink Floyd - "The Happiest Days Of Our Lives"
9. Sans Gras - "Easy On Me"
10. Kurt Vile - "Society Is My Friend"

Even with 30,000 songs in your iTunes and counting, sometimes repeats happen. The Kurt Vile song was on this shuffle two weeks ago. Fine, we'll live with it for another week. The Kristoffer Ragnstam and Radiohead songs have also appeared in earlier shuffles.

Regardless, OOH, this mix is good. Amos Lee sets the tone, and Radiohead picks it up with a song of desperate longing. "All I Need" would have really resonated with me a couple years ago. It still does, but now more in an "Oh, I remember what that's like" kind of way. The incredible, incredible Matthew Mayfield song continues the same vibe. One of the best songs I've heard this year. Then things pick up a bit with Miike Snow, followed by the epic, huge Banjo Or Freakout song.

Etc. Just listen.
