0019 "Pretty Ballerina" The Left Banke - one of the few rock songs written in Lydian mode
0022 "Mr. Blue Sky" ELO (Wheezer does almost a perfect cover of this song), my 41 year old son was thrown tickets to see ELO in Cleveland last year, he didn't know who they were.
🤦0026 I.G.Y. - Donald Fagan, Song is about the International Geophysical Year which began in 1957 to gather scientists for the benefit of mankind.
0033 "New Slang" The Shins, a somewhat unnoticed tune until it appeared in
Garden State in 2004.
0036 ID to "Rockeria!" ELO, The song opens with German opera like lyric ""Weit hinein in die Ferne
man hört, man hört die Musik" - far into the distance you can hear, you can hear the music
0041 "Je T'aime.....mon non plus" Serge Gainsbourg/Jane Birkin, Serge originally wrote this for his then girlfriend Bridget Bardot, she did a lousy job with it. A couple of years later rerecorded with new girlfriend Birkin (life is tough) and it became a hit. The Birkin Bag is named for Jane after a designer saw Birkin dump her belongings in a too small bag at an airport and created a line of handbags/luggage.
0044 "Roadrunner" Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers, for all my friends in the Commonwealth - sorry about the Sox today.

0052 "Desperadoes Under The Eaves" Warren Zevon, Bob Dylan called this the greatest song ever written. A damn sin Zevon came up short in votes for the R&R Hal of Fame.
0055 "The Needle and The Damage" Neil Young, the second of two songs about having a monkey on your back.
0058 "Bonnet of Pins" Matt Berninger - lead singer of The Nationals from this year. Clever, smirky lyrics.
