Cody Chestnutt is great... His album The Headphone Masterpiece is truly that...
I like this song, i like the chorus, i like his frank coarseness.
This video clip is brilliant too... i wish i was there...
"Put on my poker face when I walk the street
Because I look good in leather
I can make a star out of anyone I meet
You're gonna shine if you're standing beside me"

Badly Drawn Boy - Once Around The Block
Tonight I rode around the block... I feel like this song... especially at around 2mins 9 seconds.
"Trying to outrun your fear
Running to lose
Heart on your sleeve and your sole in your shoes"

Ben Folds Five - Smoke
I love this song by Ben Folds Five. It is so soothing to hear. This version with the West Australian Symphony Orchestra is even more pleasing... Listen on instead of having a cup of tea, or having a smoke.
Ben Folds has it all worked out... His lyrics/composition is beyond beautiful.
"Leaf by leaf and page by page
throw this book away
All the sadness all the rage
throw this book away"

Midnight Juggernauts - Road To Recovery
I love jumping around to the Midnight Juggernauts. This track from back in 2007 has it all: a thumping beat, great lyrics, what sounds like factory production line samples and some epic great chord progressions (especially in the chorus). The video clip is nice an easy to watch. The original off the album goes for 6:21 which is a perfect length for me to get dressed to on a Saturday night.
I have to admit that I spent the first year of singing this song screaming "hard for me to say" in the chorus instead of "path to discovery, road to recovery". I hope I got these lyrics right.
"Stars in the sky they will guide you back home
Float as the night forms a path of its own
Follow the lights they will guide you back home"
Midnight Juggernauts rock my world... Let them rock your's too.

The Church - Under the Milky Way
This song is a heart warming composition. Although it is about night, it is a nice song to wake up to as it builds and is great for easing you into the day.
The Church are one of those underrated Australian bands from the 80's and 90's. I think I might listen to one of their albums instead of going to church.
"I've got no time for private consultation,
under the milky way tonight"
found this cover on youtube too, it is worth a watch just for the hair.

Khia - My Neck My Back (Lick It)
This song is such a dirty greasy sexy smooth track. The radio edit did it no justice. You need the detail...
The bass is fat, the phrasing is cheesy, the lyrics are horny as.
This is a song for the heat... turn it up... lick it good.
"I gotta pick which fella I need
To take me out, spend his money on me
Try me I'll make you see
No other girl got nothin' me"

Tom Petty - Free Fallin'
Tom Petty has beautiful hair. His song free fallin' has beautiful lyrics. The video clip has beautiful imagery.
I like the simplicity of this song and the great 80's shots of him singing in the video clip. The skate park scene is the best. He doesn't look like he is singing hard but it he is... just listen...
"I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
I wanna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for awhile"
