Friday Random Ten - The “Someday I Will Feel Not-Sick” Edition

Seriously. We’re talking a month of feeling like I got run over by a parade without even the pleasure of confetti.

Load ‘em up, spit ‘em out. Record your shame.

1) Lupe Fiasco - Kick, Push (I like!)
2) Clutch - Escape From the Prison Planet
3) Pixies - Monkey Gone to Heaven
4) The Cramps - Queen of Pain
5) Cat Power - The Greatest
6) Sach - Jamila
7) Jens Lekman - Julie
8) The Stranglers - Straighten Out
9) Gogol Bordello - Haltura
10) Edith Frost - It’s a Game

Obligatory Guilty Pleasure, one of Chef’s contributions to my playlist, hereby proving that no cover song offends me:

I think I own these pants:
