The Ballad of the Sin Eater



You didn't think they could hate you now, did you?
Ah, but they hate you, they hate you 'cause you're guilty


One of my favorite songs. It's hard to avoid clichés while rocking out about imperialism, but Ted hits the mark every time.

St. Elmo's Fire (Brian Eno)



Apologies to those who were expecting the John Parr song. Some might say Brian Eno is a man in motion, too.

Artist: Brian Eno
Year: 1975
Rating: Luke Hot

Note: I wonder which song will get stuck in your head now...

Sticky Shoes



The song in my head is about 20 seconds into this montage from The One with Joey's New Girlfriend. Phoebe loves her sexy phlegm.

Artist: Lisa Kudrow as Phoebe Buffay
Year: 1997

The Middle



Damn catchy song. My mental jukebox is focused squarely on my emotional wranglings of late. I suspect it's true that everything (everything) will be all right, (ultimately). But it's indeed taking some time.

Artist: Jimmy Eat World
Year: 2002
Rating: Warm

Note: Wow, this video is douchey.
