The March 30 Day Song Challenge Part 6 Final
Day 26 – A song that you can play on an instrument: Devo - "Satisfaction"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jadvt7CbH1o
I can't really play any instruments, but I took a crack at drums in high school. The drum rhythm is simple enough, I think I could do it.
Day 27 – A song that you wish you could play: Husker Du - "Could You Be the One"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjEsw9lxtRw
If I could play guitar, I'd play it exactly like Bob Mould.
Day 28 – A song that makes you feel guilty: The Cars = "Heartbeat City"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKIJVKzgoSc
I couldn't think of a good one for this question, but this song reminds me of someone I know (and still am friends with) that I wish I could have treated better when we were very close. Hint, she's mentioned in the song.
Day 29 – A song from your childhood: Charlie Pride - "Kiss an Angel Good Morning"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ib0DI8jjm8E
I listened to this song so many times as a kid. One of my mom's favourite songs.
Day 30 – Your favorite song at this time last year: Magnetic Fields - "California Girls"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2EQxrGU7Yc
I was on a big noise/shoegazer thing around early spring last year. Ironically, I'm back into it again, listening to Jesus and Mary Chain lately.

The Cars return
Found this on Slicing Up Eyeballs, your necessary source for all things 80s music. The Cars have posted a clip of their first new music in 23 years (that is, if you forget the abortive reunion band with Todd Rundgren at the helm instead of Ric Ocasek). And it sounds pretty good. Kind of angular and new wavey, definitely an early Cars sound here. But, can they be the Cars without Ben Orr?
