Mr. T

The Dream Academy - "Life In A Northern Town"

G-Man

Collective Soul - "Him"

Was there any other alternative band from their era that had better riffs than Collective Soul? Admittedly I only really knew the hits from these guys. Songs that had radio play and music videos. I figured they must have some noteworthy deep tracks, and after a little a research I discovered "She Said", "Collection Of Goods" and this one which happens to be my favourite. From their 2004 album Youth.

Coat Of Legs

Mr. T

Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers - "One Bright Day"

G-Man

He Is Legend - "The Seduction"

Except maybe Dano, I might be the only Song Of The Day member who truly appreciates the "Screamo" genre, that reached it's apex in the mid to late 2000's. I made a Mixed CD around that time off all my faves and I still think about and listen to those songs all the time. This one was I think maybe the last track on that burnt beauty, which is a slot almost as important as track 1.

The Beatnuts - "Se Acabo" feat. Method Man

Dano

INXS - "Guns In The Sky"

INXS - "Devil Inside"

Since "Guns In The Sky" always feels just like an intro, I figured it needed a follower

Jonny HP

Midnight Oil - "Beds Are Burning"

Mike D

thenewno2 - "Crazy Tuesday"

J.B.

Peach Pit - "Up Granville"

Hailing from Vancouver, Peach Pit have a genuine West Coast sound. Self categorized as "Chewed Bubblegum Pop"...and i'm still trying to figure that out. Typically Indie Bands seldom self identify as "pop". I definitely only hear a unique sound I think you'll appreciate. Have a good May 2-4!

Special Guest Pick!

Papa Roach - "No Apologies"

Soft Sun

 Mr. T

Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs - "Electric Gypsy"

G-Man

Boysetsfire - "My Life In The Knife Trade"

It was a gorgeous day today and this one came on during my morning commute. It may not seem like a song that would remind someone of the blissful Summer days of years gone by, but it does for me. I first heard it on a mixed CD given to me in the Summer of 2004. Really opened a world of music to me. That Summer I remember it being so long and hot. So much less worry.

Mr. T

The Beatles - "Birthday"

That goes out to Blondie who is 33 on Friday!!

G-Man

Elastica - "Waking Up"

Who knew a few members of Elastica were originally in Suede? Brit Rock bands from the 90's are a great place to dig for forgotten gems. Some of their best songs never hit over in North America. Case in point "Waking Up"

Doug

Birdy - "Skinny Love"

Dano

Sean Rowe - "1952 Vincent Black Lightning"
