| 4 | Ambulance Ltd : Stay Tuned |
|
118 bpm. A rehash of the original British invasion, Ambulance doesn't get very good press. I don't care. I say keep double-timing with them claps and tamborines.

| 7 | Wilco : Hummingbird |
|
139 bpm. Folk-rock ballads don't have a super-consistent tempo, especially when your name is "Wilco". The piano keeps everyone mostly in line when it's playing.
