Try these songs:

My Good Gal (great song)
We're All In This Together
Take 'em Away
Trials And Troubles
I Hear Them All

I find they are a band that grows on you.

Ween, Your Party:

There were beverages laid out for the party.
There were candy and spices and tri-colored pastas.
The meat carved was drawn from succulent juices
Served on platters of the purest gold

I was calm when we arrived at the party.
I spoke with fervor in embracing the evening.
My wife leaned over and she whispered 'I love you'.
I held her close and we danced.

We had the best time at your party.
The wife and I thank you very much (x2)

Jayems ... excellent choices.

Among great newer roots releases I'd add Brock Zeman & Dan Walsh's Bourbon Sessions, Lyle Lovett's It's Not Big, It's Large, Todd Snider's The Devil You Know and Patty Griffin's Children Running Through.

Edit: Sam Baker's Mercy album is pretty good too.

"This is going to sound stupid, because I don't know who wrote it or who plays it, but they used it for a playstation or x-box commercial, and I need to find out who wrote it so that I can download it."

It wouldn't happen to be this on would it -

I know it was used in one of the x-box commercials for Gears of War.

Billy Joel's Pianoman sticks in my head lately.

Lightning Crashes by Live is still my all time favourite song, followed closely by Black Gold by Soul Asylum. Two songs I could listen to 500 times in a day, and never get tired.

Buck Cherry's Everything and Papa Roach's Forever are probably my two favourite current songs.

Isn't that a Michael Stanley song? I'm not aware of a version by Steve Earle, but if he has done one, which CD is it on?

As far as I know, it's an Earle composition. It's on his 2002 "Sidetracks" release. It's a compilation of previously unreleased originals and covers. Another highlight for me on the album is a cover of the Chamber's Brothers "Time Has Come Today" (it's a duet with Sheryl Crow). Here's an All Music Guide review:

That makes sense ... Sidetracks is one of the few Earle albums I don't have. I kind of like Michael Stanley's version of that song, so I'll check it out. Thanks.

Nice, I was going to mention Modest Mouse's new album "We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank"... what an unbelievably complete album, every single song is amazing; I love everything that is Modest Mouse, the riffs, teh voice, the lyrics, the drums, MM rules! Their older albums are very good too, this is from their previous album, "Good News for People that Love Bad News", songs called "Float On"; awesome video:


I'm pretty much down with the Indie scene, I've been listening to the new Arcade Fire album, but I do prefer their older one. Bloc Party's new stuff is pretty good too. Editors are ok, their release single of their second album is really good; cool video too.

Anyone like the Assination of Jesse James OST? Prrrrruty gouhd by my book.

I've been listening to Say Anything's "In Defense Of The Genre" since I got it last month, and it's just totally amazing.

Could it be An Ending (Acsent) by Brian Eno? Look it up.

IIRC they used it for a PS3 commercial just before it came out.

I'm still stuck on Radiohead's "In Rainbows". Also really like "Slow Show" by The National right now. Modest Mouse's "Little Motel" and "Spitting Venom" as well.

That whole album is amazing. For a guy who isn't known as much as an MC, that is one of the best hip hop albums of the year... if you can even shoe horn it in that genre.

For anyone who likes a jazzy type rock (is there such thing)? I would check out The John Butler Trio.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wm4zJhGmW-o

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ipo9S...eature=related is another one that's in my head right now

I heard it in Oz last month, and immediately ran out and bought all their CD's. I saw a live performance on TV and it was frickin amazing.

My current favorite would have to be "Sister Rosetta goes before us" by Robert Plant and Alison Krauss from the album "Raising Sand". Of course I love anything by Krauss who is easily the best singer I've ever heard in my lifetime.

Her performance with her band Union Station a few years ago at the Calgary Folk Festival is my favorite live concert of all time.
