My current list of songs I never pass by. In alphabetical order. Because that's the order in which they appear on my iPod.

I love lists. So here's your first list: the songs on my iPod currently that I can't skip past, no matter what music mood I'm in. Just wanted to share. Hope you dig.

#1- "Back Against the Wall" - Cage the Elephant


Now I know that a lot of people make a big fuss about "Ain't No Rest for the Wicked", but I prefer this song. It has a bit of a Red Hot Chili Pepper feel, no? Particularly at the beginning.

#2- "Colossal" - Wolfmother


I really dig the 70s sound of this band. You would never guess that this song was written in 2006 by a couple of young men who weren't even around to experience the 60s/70s sound that they have been believed to emulate. I particularly like the turn the song makes starting at 1:44.

#3- "The Delicate Place" - Spoon


I love this band. One of my top five right now, for sure. This song is a little raw, but surprisingly beautiful. If you don't give it at least fifteen seconds, you'll never know what I mean.

#4- "Dimension" - Wolfmother


Another song by Wolfmother. Other favorites by this band include "Woman" and "Witchcraft". No more by them on this list, though. On to the next..

#5- "E-Pro" - Beck


I love Beck. I love how weird he is. I love that the album this song is from [Guero] is Mexican slang for "white boy". This song gets really good at around the :30 mark.

#6- "The Geeks Were Right" - the Faint


I'm pretty sure these guys are LSD personified. But I still like their music. They have a few other songs that I like as well, including "I Disappear", "The Conductor", and "Posed to Death". I won't post videos for those.

#7- "Go It Alone" - Beck


Can't go wrong with a little help from Jack White. Good stuff.

#8- "Got Nuffin" - Spoon


I absolutely love this song. I cannot get my speakers loud enough to do this song proper justice. And here's some little known trivia about this band.. every time I type it, I spell it with 2 p's instead of 2 o's and I have to backspace and start over.

#9- "Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown On a Bad Bet" - Fall Out Boy


With their outlandish song titles and even more ridiculous lyrics, you can't help but write off Fall Out Boy from the start. But then you start picking up on their sheer genius, and before long you realize you can't turn them off! They may be a bunch of boys in skinny jeans, but they are lyrical wizards. It's fascinating. "I don't want to be a footnote in someone else's happiness." Come on, that's gold. Or at the very least, tarnished silver.

#10- "Heads Will Roll" - Yeah Yeah Yeahs


Very unique sound. I like this group a lot. And then I say something else about them that's less bland and more witty. Oh, except it's my bedtime and I'm bored with this project. Part Two coming.. soon. Good night.
