Coconut Records - "Microphone"

I wish Mr. Schwartzman would have incorporated the dog more. Other than that, this is a very lovely tune.


Song of the Day: Portugal. The Man - "People Say"
Adding punctuation in the middle of the band's name is a copywriter's nightmare.

Mof Def - "Quiet Dog (Bite Hard)" (live on Letterman)

Once you're done watching Mos on Letterman, please, be kind, rewind.


Song of the Day: Terry Lynn - "Jamaican Girls"
Here's a little ditty to get you spinning in your swivel chair on Thursday morning.

Phenomenal Handclap Band - "You'll Disappear"

There are some pretty phenomenal handclaps in the background, if you listen closely.


Song of the Day: Dirty Projectors - "Stillness Is The Move"

Amadou and Mariam - "Masiteladi"

Amadou and Mariam are from Mali and interestingly enough the pair, known as "the blind couple from Mali" met at Mali's Institute for the Young Blind, and found they shared an affinity for music.


Song of the Day: J. Tillman - "Earthly Bodies"

Chairlift - "Bruises"

Chairlift finds life after the iPod commercial. I think Caroline Polachek could have settled for just one television screen, because there are screenless children in Africa.


Song of the Day: Yacht - "Psychic City"
