Music That I Need to Listen to Today

This post is more for me than it is for you, but its still good music and you should still listen to it.

Rachel Yamagata - Faster (Live at Bonnaroo 2004)
I just so happen to be a big fan of Miss Rachel. Despite the fact that a few of my friends disagree, I think that if Norah Jones had grown up listening to Ani Difrance instead of Billie Holiday, this could be what she sounded like. Maybe its just me. But this particular track, as Rachel notes, is a bit more of a rockin'-ish track than what we've grown accustomed to from her. Man, she can wail sometimes...

The Concretes - New Friend
It's good. Just trust me on this one.
