I figured out an even easier way to post music that is available for free via NoiseTrade! Hooray embedding! I've been a fan of Matt Wertz for some time now and would recommend this album even at full price. Listen through some tracks if you need some convincing. And, if you feel so inclined, TYM (tip your musician).

"Standing Outside A Broken Phone Booth (With Money In My Hand)" Primitive Radio Gods
It turns out this isn't even close to being the song with the longest title.

"I Want You To Want Me" Cheap Trick
The opening spoken line might be my favorite part of this live version.

"The Pasture" Chicago Children's Choir
This song brings back fond memories of middle school Select Choir. It's hard to believe it was a decade ago.

"Take A Bow" Rihanna
We Found Love's been in my head an awful lot lady, but this early Rihanna vehicle-of-spite song remains my favorite of hers.

"All The Way" Eric Felten Jazz Orchestra
A fun concert at the Kennedy Center last night. Jump the video to 50:50 and experience part of it as Felten sings a Frank Sinatra classic.

"All Your Life" The Band Perry
I was reminded today of how little country music I've featured on the blog. These facts are true. Here's a recent tune that's quite tolerable. :)

"Heartstrings" Find Vienna
...been craving new The Script after last year's release? This VERY similar sounding band might hold you over.

"Arms" Christina Perri
Writing off Ms. Perri after really disliking her first single "Jar of Hearts" was clearly a mistake. THIS song is excellent!

"Clean House" Vick Allen
The whole situation happening at PSU is distressing, but picturing the Board of Trustees sensually deliberating to this song is bringing a little levity.

"You Got Me" Eddie Ray
The Columbus-based Prix Label never reached the level of Motown, but sure yielded some killer tracks in the same vein.

Can someone please explain to me how I know this song... was it on sesame street? a TimeLife Classics commercial?

"Attaboy" Goat Rodeo Sessions
I strongly approve of any collaboration that features Yo-Yo Ma and Edgar Meyer, but an album of refined bluegrass is almost more than I could have asked for.
