*From the Disney compilation Stay Awake, there are several interesting medleys like this, plus some stand alone songs. Great album.
**In my defense, today was Red Leather Pants and Bandana Day at work.

Dude, Psycho Killer and
Courage (For Hugh MacLennan)and Breaking Us In Two - Joe Jackson....YES. The rest? Oh my....

How are you?

Thomas, good to see you here. I'm well. You?

As far as the music goes, well, I can see complaining about one, maybe two (you can dis Tears or Floyd, but not both, and the whole Loverboy thing came out of one of the Oh What a Feeling compilations). But there's plenty of good tunage on that list, I'll have you know. I mean, how can you not like Kate Rusby? She's an angel. And the Femmes? The Mats?
