Shuffle your songs. Describe the first five that come up, so that we may all learn of them.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Sea And Cake - Jacking The Ball<\/a>. First song, first album, once a Citibank commercial, and first song of the week for me. A great song, too. Those breezy African-inspired intertwining guitar\/bass lines, Prekop's and Prewitt's easygoing vocals, McEntire's spiky drumming, ah.. Well done, iPod.\n
  2. Calexico - Cruel<\/a>. A decent song. It sounds a bit like Live, until the horns come in and give it that little touch of Mexico that distinguishes all Calexico songs. Like the ending. iPod loves some Calexico.\n
  3. Death Cab For Cutie - Coney Island<\/a>. \"Everything was closed at Coney Island. But I could not help from smiling.\" Of course those are the lyrics. Bittersweet, hopeless melancholy - it's the Death Cab way! A nice little tune, though.\n
  4. Nod<\/a> - Summer Sausage. This is one of my favorite Nod songs, but I can't find it anywhere on the web to share with you all. So, you'll just have to go buy the record - though it's pretty much impossible to find. Sigh.\n
  5. The Shins - The Past And Pending<\/a>. Another of those great creepy minor key Shins songs. Acoustic guitar and trombone (? French Horn?), with a touch of clean electric guitar for accent after a while. I really miss the old Shins' sound.\n<\/ol>\n

    See?
