Currently:

Against Me! - Paralytic States (of Dependency)

it's a song about extreme gender dysphoria and suicide.

Sad story behind this one - the singer, Cat Janice, was diagnosed with cancer in 2022. Her final song, "Dance You Outta My Head", was dedicated to her 7-year-old son, and all proceeds from it are set to go to him. She passed away yesterday.

Super popular here right now.

Cree Summer ft Lenny Kravitz - Mean Sleep

The difference between the original and Radio Disney version (which was also in Return to Halloweentown) is pretty crazy. Still a banger though.

DIR EN GREY - ain't afraid to die

gotta love Japanese artists and unconventional usage of caps and lowercase letters.

My brain somehow got on the scene from Daddy Day Care where Cheap Trick performs.

Where It All Begins by The Allman Brothers Band (R.I.P. Dickey Betts)

"Everybody's Got a Mountain to Climb"

The Tractors - Baby Likes to Rock It

This song was all over country radio in 1994-95; it ended up being their only hit. The album it's on is excellent as a whole though.

Also, their leader, Steve Ripley (RIP), was Bob Dylan's touring guitarist during Dylan's Christian phase.

The Radio Disney version was recently found for this one - I remember hearing it on the station in 2019 but it's grown on me more now.

I recently finished re-listening to my Rolling Stones albums and I'm think I'm starting to appreciate for the first time how great an album Exile on Main St. is. It doesn't have any of their major hits like "Sympathy for the Devil" or "Gimme Shelter" or "Paint it Black" or anything like that, but it's a really tight album with very fun listenable tracks. Basically, the whole album is an experience that deserves to be listened to from beginning to end.
