First up, NYC's The Hong Kong did "Tongue Tied" from their forthcoming Slow Motion Gets Around album, but you can download it now from their website. And be sure to check out the video which co-stars Dean Wareham of TSiMH favorite Luna fame. Next Brooklyn's Ben Kweller did his decidedly "Falling"-esque song "Until I Die" from his new self-titled album (iTunes, Amazon). Then the notoriously overlooked late-60's pop band The Free Design did "An Elegy" which can be found on the collection The Redesigned Originals, Recorded by The Free Design (1967-70) (iTunes). Then, just for the hell of it, Jennifer Trynin did the hit "Better Than Nothing" from her 1994 album Cockamamie (iTunes, Amazon). She also has a recent book out called Everything I'm Cracked Up to Be (Amazon). And finally the incredibly Billie Holiday-sounding Madeleine Peyroux did a great cover of Elliott Smith's "Behind the Bars" from her 2004 album Careless Love (iTunes, Amazon). She also has a brand new album that's worth checking out called Half the Perfect World (iTunes, Amazon). This episode features clips from the audio book version of F.U.B.A.R. America's Right-Wing Nightmare (iTunes, Amazon) by Sam Seder and Stephen Sherrill read by Sam Seder, largely because of the recent news involving Rep. Mark Foley (R-FL).
