Disposable Dixie Cup Drinking

I would just like to reiterate how magnificent an album Yankee Hotel Foxtrot is. I've been listening to a lot of R&B, some Hip Hop, ("Get Ur Freak On") and some old fifties Rock and Roll lately. Yet one listen to "I Am Trying to Break Your Heart" and I'm right back into a Wilco obsession. I've had the album for three years and I'm still absolutely mesmerized. Also, if you've never heard the song "The Book of Love" by The Magnetic Fields... go check it out. It's definitely one of the best love songs I've ever heard.

Anyway, some tracks I've been listening to

People Get Ready - The Impressions
You Send Me - Sam Cooke from Portrait of a Legend
Georgia on My Mind - Ray Charles
Ignition (Remix) - R. Kelly from The R in R&B Collection
I Say a Little Prayer - Dionne Warwick
Walk On By - Dionne Warwick
Bye Bye Love - The Everly Brothers
Love Me Tender - Elvis Presley
Suspicious Minds - Elvis Presley
In the Ghetto - Elvis Presley
The Book of Love - The Magnetic Fields
Louie, Louie - The Kingsmen
Deja Vu - Beyonce (feat. Jay-Z) from B'Day
Get Ur Freak On - Missy Elliot from Miss E.. So Addictive
Jesus Walks - Kanye West from The College Dropout (which may or may not be the greatest rap song I've ever heard)

wow...those two songs I listened to, like the first ones you mentioned way at the top... I was amazed at them in an unexplainable way.
