Some lovely songs to accompany me on a road trip if I ever get around to it. The theme varies a little bit, but it's mostly about other peoples' cities, traveling, and desperation. Also, the songs switch off between old and new. Enjoy.

| 4 | Scarlett Johansson : Fannn' Street |
|
"There's a crooked street in Houston town..." I used this version for several reasons: it's fairly recent (the theme being old/new/old/new again) and because her voice is sort of creepy in a way that I love on this song.

ANd a very wonderful road trip it will be. I like Duffy too, and you have included my favorite Dead song.
