What song always makes you feel better?

It's the instrumentation... the reggae/ska influence...

When you go to the market to realize your soul, you realize that some things just can't be bought and sold.

What's a song you'd want to hear on your birthday?

Always liked this song, adding a little levity to ‘Automatic’, and the little detail from Wikipedia that R.E.M. would never play this one live.

Not sure what circumstances someone would play this for me, but my birthday is right after tax day in April.

What's your favorite song to listen to while doing chores?

Chores? I'm usually sweeping and mopping the floors, loading the dishwasher, taking out the trash. Sometimes you need a crack of sunshine to break through the mundane. This is the opening track to Radio DDR, a great album released earlier this year by Sharp Pins. They released another great album (Balloon Balloon Balloon) in November. This jangly guitar pop is giving me life while I clean up.
