2 Billy Bragg & Wilco : California Stars
Bag of Suck, which is sort of a movie. A movie with skateboarders from northern California. Every time I watch this I repeat the Louie Barletta/Rod Stewart part and the ending credits/Billy Bragg & Wilco part until I find something better to do. It's the perfect ending, not quite sad that Bag of Suck is ending but hopeful and uplifting as well. It's almost tear-worthy, which is kind of lame.

/a.k.a. A song from a movie

3 The Nails : 88 Lines About 44 Women

4 The Turtles : Happy Together
I tried many times to beat this one guy Wes at Super Smash Bros., and I always ended up getting pounded. I hope you remember this commercial, DK, Pikachu, Mario, and Yoshi running through a field. So fucking happy together.

5 M. Ward : Chinese Translation
I wonder about this song, and I wonder where those words would even fit in this song. And if life is really as short as they say, then why is the night so long?

6 Alice in Chains : No Excuses
I once spent 12 bucks on an Alice in Chains Jar of Flies tape when I was 12, it was a birthday present for my brother. I never gave it to him, I listened to it instead.

7 Catherine Wheel : Crank
English people, please don't kill me for this.
I think I can safely say that Catherine Wheel was a completely unsuccessful band over here, and everyone seems to know this song. I own a couple of albums, but when I play this people seem to come out of the woodwork and all of a sudden I'm bonding with a co-worker over this song.

8 The Misfits : Bullet
My mom hated this song, she took the poster of blood spurting from Kennedy's head off of the wall too. I didn't get being attached to a president, but my mom thought it was terrible. I think my parents hate most of my music but we established that as long as I paid for it, it was mine.

11 Heavens : Doves
Euphoric crap that I'm kind of embarrassed to listen to, forever skipped when someone else gets in the car, and then I make some excuses. Not the average Heavens song, it's a pretty guitar. Sounds like some psychadelic shit, and then Matt Skiba shows up after it's over. PLEASE FORGIVE ME. I was going to throw in some Genghis Tron, but I think that's expected.

14 Descendents : Good Good Things
This could technically be a really nice funky-ass bass line but it also falls under teenage angst. I was listening to this tape last night, each side is not even 25 minutes yet there are a gazillion songs. I was in the middle of singing this, and then I realize my roommate is home and she's been listening to me. I'm sure she was jealous.

15 Joy Division : Insight
I think all of their bass lines are fantastical, even when you're waiting for Ian Curtis to sing off key. And then there's the laser sounds.

I'm English and I won't kill you. The facts that I am a pacifist and also don't like Catherine Wheel are neither here nor there! You chose a Hooky bassline which is fine by me. His bass was all that kept me interested in New Order a lot of the time!
