Mathcaddy Radio: Session 5: All Time Favorites
Adam says: Mathcaddy Radio presents Adam's 10 favorite songs of all time. Although, this is just off the top of my head... there's probably other stuff I like just as much. Anyway, I invited Steve to participate in this session. And he did. His role was to offer his opinion after I shared with him some of my favorites. Sometimes he was even funny! Often he was just weird. And occasionally he hated my picks.
Steve says: Adam made me do this. He dragged me from my house with my heels clicking and clacking the whole way. I got a hair cut today. Adam gave me ice cream and it was good. I had a hard time saying what I liked and didn't like about songs, so I just said anything else that came to mind. Some songs that I sound particullary hateful towards I actually like. So dont trust anything that I say. But don't come to me for help when the communists come, I will be somewhere.
Mathcaddy Radio: Session 501: Palo Alto - "Too Many Questions" 02: Ben Folds - "Not the Same" 03: R.E.M. - "Be Mine" 04: Harvey Danger - "Terminal Annex" 05: Nada Surf - "80 Windows" 06: The Verve - "The Drugs Don't Work" 07: Death Cab for Cutie - "Tiny Vessels" 08: Jawbreaker - "Stuttering" 09: Travis - "Writing to Reach You" 10: Roy Orbison - "You Got It" [59 MB MP3 :: 64 Minutes]

Hey guys, digging the selections... and you guys are major dorks, like the rest of us I suppose...! I guess it's easy to complain, so instead, I'll offer some constructive criticism in terms of the new sidekick, Steve... It'd be cool if Steve brought some tunes to the table... and Adam offered his two cents on Steve's selections. In Steve's defense, Adam didn't give him much to work with, since every song was from his Top Ten list! In any case, enjoying Session 5 and looking forward to whatever you come up next!

We are, indeed, major dorks.
I also think it would be cool if Steve brought some selections to the table. I'm going to continue to try to convince him to make some picks.
Enjoying this session. I particularly liked your background to the R.E.M. track about your musical epiphany on the bridge - it made the song that much better to listen to.
I love when that happens. Back in 2002, I wrote about such moments of musical transcendance: http://actsofvolition.com/archives/2002/january/momentsof
