The Weakerthans - Night Windows

[playlist] Throwback Thursdays!

I've been listening to a lot of new music lately. And though it's all brilliant and beautiful, it can sometimes be overwhelming. Therefor, I present to you Throwback Thursdays. A compilation of good old tunes that bring back good old memories. Why Thursdays you ask? Because it rhymes DUH. Here we go:

Neutral Milk Hotel - In The Aeroplane Over The Sea
[any indie fan's fav old time mysterio jeff mangum]
Wyclef Jean - Gone Till November
Violent Femmes - Kiss Off
[arcade fire did a cover of this. pretty cool]
Puff Daddy - Mo Money Mo Problems
The Weakerthans - Exiles Among You
Jamiraqui - Virtual Insantiy [don't care if you don't like this song. you can't deny that it's groovin']
The Breeders- Cannonball

There are really so many more, but I'll just leave it at this. Enjoy!
