I acquired Wilco's non-album tracks by mostly-legal means while the board was down.  This might be my favorite song besides Laminated Cat.  I assume it's everyone's favorite song, right?  :lol

 

Seriously, "you can count your chickens when you get laid"?  As a fan of the Silver Jews, Fountains of Wayne and Old 97's, I never turn down a good play on words.  So catchy.

I did.  I was semi-aware of them on account of living in the Twin Cities - Gary Louris, et al. Realizing that Jeff Tweedy was in Golden Smog after already loving the Jayhawks was a simple line to draw.  I'm embarrassed to say I've always owned Down By..., Weird Tales, and Another Fine Day.  And I've loved their cover of Strangers since forever.  I have no idea why I didn't get into Wilco sooner.

 

But Old Maid.  Heaven help me, I've racked up 30 listens since this weekend.

 

"I Can't Keep From Talking" is another one that's had me in fits this weekend.  I used to skip Jeff's songs and now I'm kicking myself.  Hits me like a ton of bricks.
