The iPod starts the work week with:

1. Spoon - Lines In The Suit. One of my favorite Spoon songs:
   The human resource clerk
   Has two cigarettes then back to work
   She eats right but hurts
   And she says it could've been good by now
   It could have been more than a wage, yeah
   How come she feels so washed up
   At such a tender age
2. John Mayall - Lonely Years
3. The Cure - The Dream
4. Shellac - My Black Ass. Everything Albini does is pure rage. There's no posturing or self-aggrandizing you get in other genres that like to come across as angry (metal, rap, etc). This stuff is just pure white hot rage.
5. Thelonius Monk & Sonny Rollins - I Want to be Happy. Ah ironic juxtaposition.
6. fieldfresh - pissin. One of my college bands...
   I like pissin
   I like kissin
   If I can't be kissin
   I wanna be pissin
   On the girl that won't kiss me

   Such brilliance.

7. The Replacements - Gary's Got a Boner. What an excellent pairing.
8. King Crimson - Three of a Perfect Pair
9. Beastie Boys - Ch-Check It Out. One of the few I like from their last record.
10. Cat Power - Foot. Good one...
11. Special bonus: Elliot Smith - Waltz #2 (XO). My favorite Elliot Smith song, and somewhere in the top 10 of my all time favorites.

My iPod starts the short work week with:

1. The White Stripes - The Denial Twist
2. Yo La Tengo - Upside Down. One of their perfect little super-catchy rock songs.
3. The White Stripes - I'm Finding It Harder To Be A Gentleman
4. Van Morrison - When That Evening Sun Goes Down
5. Fleetwood Mac - Think About Me. A little gem from the kings of catchy songs.
6. The Shins - Fighting In A Sack. A great song from a great album from a great band.
7. Grandaddy - Yeah It's What We Had
8. Gillian Welch - I'm Not Afraid To Die. Yay!
9. Miles Davis - When I Fall In Love.
