My iTunes has 7690 songs. But my iPod only has 7686. No matter how many times I update it.
What four songs won’t transfer? And why? Seriously — WHY? It’s driving me nuts.

There’s a little country girl hidden somewhere in my heart.
And thus I am LOVING this pseudo-country album I bought in Australia:
The Audreys “Between Last Night and Us.”
I bought it purely for its cool cover with no idea what kind of music it contained or
whether I would like it.
Damn damn damn do I ever.
Folk music for Rachael and whoever else….
Art Thieme Live – this is supposed to be a great album and if you read the Chicago Tribune there was a good article about Art and the lack of folk music in the media.
I’ve never heard of Renee Geyer before.
But her cover of Crowded House’s “Into Temptation” is really, really awesome.
It’s from She Will Have Her Way: The Songs of Tim & Neil Finn. Picked up by both Me and Mariko in Australia, but of course.
Crowded House = I can never get enough.
(In Concert:) Josh Rouse might be my new celebrity boyfriend. (When I break up with JP that is.)
He was GREAT in concert. So upbeat and fun. For how mellow his albums are, his concert was totally rocking. He’s a pretty damn good musician, impressive guitar skills. LOVED IT. If you have a chance to see him, and you even think his albums are “oh, OK” I say GO. He is definitely worth seeing live, a very different experience than listening to him at home.
Also good were his openers: Strays Don’t Sleep. I really enjoyed them and bought their EP on the way out!!
I don’t recommend, on the other hand, seeing KT Tunstall live just yet. Although I really love her album, her concert was pretty mediocre. Some songs sounded flat, her stage banter was weird, to say the least, and it was just not as enjoyable of an experience. But it is her first album so I’m expecting she’ll be better on future tours.
“Come on, Lady, give this bum a sense of pride.”
If he doesn’t sing this song (“Sunshine”) I think I might cry.
Then again, I’m so tired, I might just wind up crying anyway.
“Come around to see the other side of pain.”*
Going to see Josh Rouse tonight.
*I don’t know, I’m thinking this side is bad enough, thanks for the suggestion, tho.
The Herd: “An Elephant Never Forgets”
I am listening to Aussie Hip Hop right now and QUITE enjoying myself.
Mike Doughty played a new song last night.
It’s called “That’s how you fuck a Republican.”
His record producer is arguing with him about it. He said “I keep telling him, there’s nothing ironic about it; in the song, I actually want to fuck a Republican.” “Clean girl, dirty mind.”
Another new song started “I wrote a song about your car; I wrote it with your hips in mind.”
Go Buy This Album: Daniel Powter.
How is it that I had to just be messing around in iTunes to find out about this. I LOVE IT. It is making me very very very happy right now. Or the happiest I can be right now given the underlying I’m not happy.
Super fun, bouncy. BUY IT.
That is my advice for you this Friday, the 17th of March. That is all.
