"content": "\u003cp>Weeding through all the new music out there can be a time-consuming process. Luckily for you, I’ve compiled a handy list of all the songs you don’t know you already love.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>CAT POWER: RUIN\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nl3Oo4-IQ4&version=3&showinfo=0&hl=en_US&rel=0]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are certain songs that slice their way into your anatomy as devotedly as shrapnel. And most of Cat Power’s songs are like that for me. I’ve imitated Chan’s husky spirit-beaten voice more times than i can remember, on bike rides to the beach and up mountains, over the kitchen sink washing the dishes a murky swirl being sucked down the drain, slow dancing with boys in their unfamiliar, disordered bedrooms. Suffice it to say, her music has hitched a spiraling ride on my DNA and the newest hitchhiker is “Ruin.” Chan recorded this, along with the rest of her ninth album \u003ci>Sun\u003c/i>, after being dumped by actor Giovanni Ribisi, moving to Paris, and cutting all her hair off. She always had a flair for histrionics and, in a world of uncertainty, it’s nice to be able to count on our girl being as dramatic as ever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>LE1F: WUT\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nrnq4SZ0luc?rel=0&showinfo=0&w=500&h=281]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maybe you heard about \u003ca href=\"http://sfist.com/2012/09/05/double_rainbow_delights_san_francis_1.php#photo-1\">the mind-bogglingly epic double rainbow\u003c/a> in San Francisco last week? Well, if you were lucky enough to catch sight of it, you know all about the flood of serotonin that it inspired. Strangers on the street were stupid with happiness, chit chatting with each other, loving being alive at the same time as everyone else. And that’s the feeling I get when I watch Le1f’s music video for “Wut.” The rap scene isn’t exactly known for its tolerance of gays, which is why it’s so refreshing to see someone as skilled and as flamboyant as Le1f doing his thing so unapologetically. Get light in your loafers and click play.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>U.S. GIRLS: JACK\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gPGflHGx7A&version=3&showinfo=0&hl=en_US&rel=0]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Megan Remy, the force behind this lo-fi project, is a weirdo, and I say that in the most loving way. Her raw, nostalgic songs feel like hallucinations or night terrors of forgotten songs or styles from past decades. On 2011’s \u003ci>U.S. GIRLS on KRAAK\u003c/i>, she covered Brandy and Monica’s “The Boy Is Mine” (!!!), exorcising the original of its sassy lightness and spiking it with something sinister. “Jack,” her first single from the forthcoming \u003ci>GEM\u003c/i>, is also a cover, this time of the 1991 Brock Robinson song about a dream that he was Jack the Ripper. Like the maniac that inspired the original, Remy kills this version dead, wearing a turban no less!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>KINDNESS: HOUSE\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmwCxCVsWV4?rel=0&showinfo=0&w=500&h=281]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Do you ever question the innate goodness of humanity? Endless wars, petty election sniping, and that jerk mean muggin’ on the Geary bus can get to a person. Thankfully for us, there’s this British singer/songwriter by the name of Adam Bainbridge that is so nice that he named his music project Kindness. But he doesn’t stop at making cheery dance music. He takes it one step further in the music video for “House,” in which he teaches a young boy how to use a drum machine and then recruits him to help out with the song and some cute-as-pie dancing too. If you’re not smiling by the end of this video, I’m sorry to say you’re kind of a monster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>CHROMATICS: LADY\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbx8qRg6tPE&version=3&showinfo=0&hl=en_US&rel=0]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first piece I ever wrote for KQED Arts way back in 2007 A.D. was \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/arts/music/article.jsp?essid=20083\">a review of the Chromatics’ \u003ci>Night Drive\u003c/i>\u003c/a>. 5 years later, a lot of things have changed, mainly that I no longer get student discounts and I have a lot more chest hair. But one thing has stayed put and that’s my love for the Chromatics. I mean, did you see \u003ci>Drive\u003c/i> (a.k.a. Ryan Gosling Is Hot and Has a Cool Jacket and Is Not Afraid to Bash Your Head In for Love)? A large part of that film’s success is due to the Chromatics-heavy soundtrack. And “Lady,” snatched from the band’s latest full length \u003ci>Kill for Love\u003c/i>, is just as punishing as Gosling’s dashing good looks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>ELITE GYMNASTICS: ANDREJA 4-EVER\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4t97_AIXsE0&version=3&showinfo=0&hl=en_US&rel=0]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>James Brooks may have been ditched by his only bandmate earlier this month, but, judging by “Andreja 4-Ever,” his lovely contribution to this year’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.adultswim.com/promos/201206_singles/index.html\">Adult Swim Singles Program\u003c/a>, that doesn’t seem to be slowing him down any. The song is an ode to feminist critic Andreja Dworkin, who inspired Brooks to get over his fear of sex. You can hear his gratitude in the way he drags out her name in the song’s chorus. When asked about the track, Brooks had this to say: “I feel like, after the second-wave feminists, there’s just been such a regressive attitude about feminism that’s been so helpful to the patriarchy and so harmful to everyone else and people just accept it and that makes me miserable.

And most of Cat Power’s songs are like that for me. I’ve imitated Chan’s husky spirit-beaten voice more times than i can remember, on bike rides to the beach and up mountains, over the kitchen sink washing the dishes a murky swirl being sucked down the drain, slow dancing with boys in their unfamiliar, disordered bedrooms. Suffice it to say, her music has hitched a spiraling ride on my DNA and the newest hitchhiker is “Ruin.” Chan recorded this, along with the rest of her ninth album \u003ci>Sun\u003c/i>, after being dumped by actor Giovanni Ribisi, moving to Paris, and cutting all her hair off. She always had a flair for histrionics and, in a world of uncertainty, it’s nice to be able to count on our girl being as dramatic as ever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Well, if you were lucky enough to catch sight of it, you know all about the flood of serotonin that it inspired. Strangers on the street were stupid with happiness, chit chatting with each other, loving being alive at the same time as everyone else. And that’s the feeling I get when I watch Le1f’s music video for “Wut.” The rap scene isn’t exactly known for its tolerance of gays, which is why it’s so refreshing to see someone as skilled and as flamboyant as Le1f doing his thing so unapologetically.

Her raw, nostalgic songs feel like hallucinations or night terrors of forgotten songs or styles from past decades. On 2011’s \u003ci>U.S. GIRLS on KRAAK\u003c/i>, she covered Brandy and Monica’s “The Boy Is Mine” (!!!), exorcising the original of its sassy lightness and spiking it with something sinister. “Jack,” her first single from the forthcoming \u003ci>GEM\u003c/i>, is also a cover, this time of the 1991 Brock Robinson song about a dream that he was Jack the Ripper. Like the maniac that inspired the original, Remy kills this version dead, wearing a turban no less!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>KINDNESS: HOUSE\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/xmwCxCVsWV4?rel=0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/xmwCxCVsWV4?rel=0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Do you ever question the innate goodness of humanity? Endless wars, petty election sniping, and that jerk mean muggin’ on the Geary bus can get to a person. Thankfully for us, there’s this British singer/songwriter by the name of Adam Bainbridge that is so nice that he named his music project Kindness. But he doesn’t stop at making cheery dance music. He takes it one step further in the music video for “House,” in which he teaches a young boy how to use a drum machine and then recruits him to help out with the song and some cute-as-pie dancing too. If you’re not smiling by the end of this video, I’m sorry to say you’re kind of a monster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>CHROMATICS: LADY\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/tbx8qRg6tPE'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/tbx8qRg6tPE'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first piece I ever wrote for KQED Arts way back in 2007 A.D. was \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/arts/music/article.jsp?essid=20083\">a review of the Chromatics’ \u003ci>Night Drive\u003c/i>\u003c/a>. 5 years later, a lot of things have changed, mainly that I no longer get student discounts and I have a lot more chest hair. But one thing has stayed put and that’s my love for the Chromatics. I mean, did you see \u003ci>Drive\u003c/i> (a.k.a. Ryan Gosling Is Hot and Has a Cool Jacket and Is Not Afraid to Bash Your Head In for Love)? A large part of that film’s success is due to the Chromatics-heavy soundtrack. And “Lady,” snatched from the band’s latest full length \u003ci>Kill for Love\u003c/i>, is just as punishing as Gosling’s dashing good looks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>ELITE GYMNASTICS: ANDREJA 4-EVER\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/4t97_AIXsE0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/4t97_AIXsE0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>James Brooks may have been ditched by his only bandmate earlier this month, but, judging by “Andreja 4-Ever,” his lovely contribution to this year’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.adultswim.com/promos/201206_singles/index.html\">Adult Swim Singles Program\u003c/a>, that doesn’t seem to be slowing him down any. The song is an ode to feminist critic Andreja Dworkin, who inspired Brooks to get over his fear of sex. You can hear his gratitude in the way he drags out her name in the song’s chorus. When asked about the track, Brooks had this to say: “I feel like, after the second-wave feminists, there’s just been such a regressive attitude about feminism that’s been so helpful to the patriarchy and so harmful to everyone else and people just accept it and that makes me miserable. Dworkin is not an albatross, she was a f***ing hero.” Um, something just got in my eye.

Of the picks that did make the cut, however, our top pick is our fifth annual \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.rockmake.com/\">Rock Make Street Festival\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, which brings 70 arts and crafts vendors and twelve local bands to 18th Street and Treat Avenue in the Mission District on September 15th for an all-day celebration of local creativity.

The shoegazey rock trio aren’t breaking up, but they are moving to New York, and it’s sad to say goodbye to one of our favorite local bands.

Of the picks that did make the cut, however, our top pick is our fifth annual \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.rockmake.com/\">Rock Make Street Festival\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, which brings 70 arts and crafts vendors and twelve local bands to 18th Street and Treat Avenue in the Mission District on September 15th for an all-day celebration of local creativity. We’re really proud of this annual favorite, and this year’s installment probably features our best lineup to date, including John Vanderslice, Tartufi, Exray’s, Burnt Ones, and many more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, Rock Make’s not the only festival hitting the Bay this month, as the \u003ca href=\"http://www.facebook.com/missioncreekoak\">Mission Creek Oakland Music and Arts Festival\u003c/a> returns with an expanded array of great locally-focused concerts in a variety of East Bay venues and performance spaces. Speaking of Oakland, I’d recommend you head there after Rock Make ends on September 15th to see \u003ca href=\"http://www.facebook.com/weekendtheband\">Weekend\u003c/a>‘s farewell show at the Uptown. The shoegazey rock trio aren’t breaking up, but they are moving to New York, and it’s sad to say goodbye to one of our favorite local bands. With a new album coming soon, though, this probably won’t be the last we see of them around these parts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As always, enjoy the mix and then go see some shows!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cu>\u003cstrong>About the bands:\u003c/strong>\u003c/u>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://sicalps.com/\">Sic Alps\u003c/a> — “Glyphs”\u003cbr>Celebrating the release of \u003cem>Sic Alps\u003c/em> at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.makeoutroom.com/events/\">Make-Out Room\u003c/a> on September 7, and supporting Thee Oh Sees at \u003ca href=\"http://www.uptownnightclub.com/event-calendar/\">The Uptown\u003c/a> on September 8.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Once you graduate from your final level of schooling, summer instantly turns into something different. School’s out forever, so it’s no longer capital-S Summer, it’s now simply the time in which your commute to work is at its warmest and sweatiest. As a result, we need our culture to help remind us why summer is still special and how amazing 3 months of nothing used to be. To help us through, we have summer blockbusters, we have fireworks and most important to us at Noise Pop we have the song of the summer (herein referred to as S.O.S.). The S.O.S. is a tune meant to unify all the parties we attend and all the parties we overhear. An S.O.S. should be peppy, upbeat, easy and interactive — whether that means a pump of the fist or a twist of the hip. Ideally it talks about summery things: love, beach, water, sun, youth, but at its best it simply evokes these things. A great summer song makes one feel younger, in a visceral sense; it lets our brains, for three minutes, think: “I don’t have school tomorrow!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kr0tTbTbmVA&w=480&h=360]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A couple years back, \u003ca href=\"http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/the-songs-of-the-summer-1940-2010\">Buzzfeed designated all the S.O.S’s dating back to 1940\u003c/a>, seemingly based on each song’s chart position. The results were a bit wonky. Sure, 1964’s list had The Beach Boys, but six years prior they had “Purple People Eater,” a song so out of place it might as well have been “Monster Mash.” Flash forward to the late ’80s / early ’90s, and we see the type of definitive summer songs that we’ve come to associate with the term: “Summertime” by DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, “Baby Got Back” by Sir Mix-A-Lot, and, well, “The Macarena.” As things started to get real pop, a divide became clearer between the pop song of the summer and the indie song of the summer. In 2005, every party in the Marina played Mariah Carey’s “We Belong Together” while every party in The Mission played LCD Soundsystem’s “Daft Punk Is Playing at My House.” If you need more proof, just look at the difference between \u003ca href=\"http://stereogum.com/1083812/and-the-indie-song-of-the-summer-2012-is/top-stories/\">Stereogum\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.vulture.com/2012/05/song-of-summer-2012-its-that-time-again.html\">Vulture\u003c/a>‘s list of recent summer songs. That said, these things obviously aren’t absolutes; depending on levels of irony and hipness, anything could be played anywhere. Last year there was some unity between the pop and indie worlds — both the pop S.O.S., Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep,” and the indie S.O.S., Foster The People’s “Pumped Up Kicks,” were likely both played at every summer get-together. These two songs may seem like they live in two different worlds, but they each hit some of the S.O.S precepts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cj8JrQ9w5jY&w=480&h=360]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These two vastly different songs demonstrate the simple complexity of the S.O.S. Part of the beauty of an S.O.S is that there are clear forerunners, but number one is in the ear of the beholder. The S.O.S is about personal, not critical, experience. And there are plenty of great choices this year. In the pop world, let’s face it, “Call Me Maybe,” is probably the winner. It’s impossible to ignore the song. It’s damn near the platonic ideal of a summer song: it’s catchy, bright, escapist, earnest and a bit frivolous. There is an aw shucks quality to it and an utter void of seriousness that is perfect for reckless summer fun. But, that isn’t the end of the S.O.S story. “Call me Maybe” may be the pop ringer, but we’ve collected some well-matched contenders in the indie corner with a little more… depth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxxajLWwzqY&w=480&h=270]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I Love It” by Icona Pop literally mentions summer, has a solid four-to-the-floor dance beat, evokes dumb youth, and just begs to be heard in a room with kinetic bodies pressing against one another. Hot Chip’s “Night and Day” is the other main contender for the summer’s most danceable song and features a sing-a-long chorus to boot. Best Coast’s “The Only Place” is a summer song in the way all of her songs are: it’s a bouncy number about being young “with the sun in our eyes” and going to the beach. Here We Go Magic’s “How Do I Know” isn’t as explicitly summery but it has an intangibly summer vibe and is easily the summer song’s best fit for some top-down convertible driving. “Five Seconds” by Twin Shadow has the drive and bounce of a summer song and would seamlessly fit into any teen movie from the ’80s. Purity Ring’s “Fineshrine,” with its romantic pulses and glitch drumrolls, would be a perfect soundtrack for the 2020 remake of any of those teen movies from the ’80s. Or maybe the best choice is not one but two songs, if both those songs are by Frank Ocean. He released the best and most talked about album of the summer and two, for a lack of a better word, chill songs — “Super Rich Kids” and “Sweet Life” — that are ideal accompaniments to the jangle of beer bottles in a cooler. Still, the front-runner for indie S.O.S. has to be Japandroids “The House That Heaven Built.” The song is drenched in anthemic nostalgia. It demands a fist to be righteously pumped and a singing along of “Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, ohh.” It’s life affirming and summer affirming: “If they try to slow you down, tell ’em all to go to hell.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRVCtbfuDqw&w=480&h=270]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/arts/programs/noisepop/\">\u003cb>Noise Pop Podcast\u003c/b>\u003c/a> is going to tackle the indie song of the summer and we want to hear from you.

The S.O.S. is a tune meant to unify all the parties we attend and all the parties we overhear. An S.O.S. should be peppy, upbeat, easy and interactive — whether that means a pump of the fist or a twist of the hip. Ideally it talks about summery things: love, beach, water, sun, youth, but at its best it simply evokes these things. A great summer song makes one feel younger, in a visceral sense; it lets our brains, for three minutes, think: “I don’t have school tomorrow!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/Kr0tTbTbmVA'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/Kr0tTbTbmVA'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A couple years back, \u003ca href=\"http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/the-songs-of-the-summer-1940-2010\">Buzzfeed designated all the S.O.S’s dating back to 1940\u003c/a>, seemingly based on each song’s chart position. The results were a bit wonky. Sure, 1964’s list had The Beach Boys, but six years prior they had “Purple People Eater,” a song so out of place it might as well have been “Monster Mash.” Flash forward to the late ’80s / early ’90s, and we see the type of definitive summer songs that we’ve come to associate with the term: “Summertime” by DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, “Baby Got Back” by Sir Mix-A-Lot, and, well, “The Macarena.” As things started to get real pop, a divide became clearer between the pop song of the summer and the indie song of the summer. In 2005, every party in the Marina played Mariah Carey’s “We Belong Together” while every party in The Mission played LCD Soundsystem’s “Daft Punk Is Playing at My House.” If you need more proof, just look at the difference between \u003ca href=\"http://stereogum.com/1083812/and-the-indie-song-of-the-summer-2012-is/top-stories/\">Stereogum\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.vulture.com/2012/05/song-of-summer-2012-its-that-time-again.html\">Vulture\u003c/a>‘s list of recent summer songs. That said, these things obviously aren’t absolutes; depending on levels of irony and hipness, anything could be played anywhere. Last year there was some unity between the pop and indie worlds — both the pop S.O.S., Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep,” and the indie S.O.S., Foster The People’s “Pumped Up Kicks,” were likely both played at every summer get-together. These two songs may seem like they live in two different worlds, but they each hit some of the S.O.S precepts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/Cj8JrQ9w5jY'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/Cj8JrQ9w5jY'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These two vastly different songs demonstrate the simple complexity of the S.O.S. Part of the beauty of an S.O.S is that there are clear forerunners, but number one is in the ear of the beholder. The S.O.S is about personal, not critical, experience. And there are plenty of great choices this year. In the pop world, let’s face it, “Call Me Maybe,” is probably the winner. It’s impossible to ignore the song. It’s damn near the platonic ideal of a summer song: it’s catchy, bright, escapist, earnest and a bit frivolous. There is an aw shucks quality to it and an utter void of seriousness that is perfect for reckless summer fun. But, that isn’t the end of the S.O.S story. “Call me Maybe” may be the pop ringer, but we’ve collected some well-matched contenders in the indie corner with a little more… depth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Hot Chip’s “Night and Day” is the other main contender for the summer’s most danceable song and features a sing-a-long chorus to boot. Best Coast’s “The Only Place” is a summer song in the way all of her songs are: it’s a bouncy number about being young “with the sun in our eyes” and going to the beach. Here We Go Magic’s “How Do I Know” isn’t as explicitly summery but it has an intangibly summer vibe and is easily the summer song’s best fit for some top-down convertible driving. “Five Seconds” by Twin Shadow has the drive and bounce of a summer song and would seamlessly fit into any teen movie from the ’80s. Purity Ring’s “Fineshrine,” with its romantic pulses and glitch drumrolls, would be a perfect soundtrack for the 2020 remake of any of those teen movies from the ’80s. Or maybe the best choice is not one but two songs, if both those songs are by Frank Ocean. He released the best and most talked about album of the summer and two, for a lack of a better word, chill songs — “Super Rich Kids” and “Sweet Life” — that are ideal accompaniments to the jangle of beer bottles in a cooler. Still, the front-runner for indie S.O.S. has to be Japandroids “The House That Heaven Built.” The song is drenched in anthemic nostalgia. It demands a fist to be righteously pumped and a singing along of “Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, ohh.” It’s life affirming and summer affirming: “If they try to slow you down, tell ’em all to go to hell.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/TRVCtbfuDqw'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/TRVCtbfuDqw'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"headTitle": "What I Learned at Outside Lands 2012 | KQED",
"content": "\u003cp>Over the course of three days at \u003cb>Outside Lands\u003c/b>, I learned a few things. One was a lesson in stamina. You need a lot of stamina to make it through three days of crowds, raucous music, and uncontrollable dancing. Without rigorous training ahead of time, Sunday found me beat. Another lesson: no matter how tired you are, Santigold will pep you right up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With two backup dancers and three musicians, all in coordinated — if odd — outfits, Santigold put on an impressive show. Her set also demonstrated a great rapport between the artist and her audience. For the jam “Creator” off her 2008 album \u003ci>Santogold\u003c/i>, she invited a gaggle of brightly-dressed ladies from the front row of the audience on stage. The entire production was ridiculously fun. At one point band members dressed in a horse costume (think elementary school play) entered the scene. Even Santigold confessed to being exhausted prior to the show. “We feel invigorated,” she yelled to the happily bouncing crowd, “you’re an amazing inspiration!” She even managed to coax the sun out for a spell, marking the only blue sky I saw all weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px\" src=\"http://a.s.kqed.net/img/arts/blog/outsidecrowd1.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003cbr>\nPhoto: Wendy GoodfriendOn the heels of this rejuvenating set, all Bloc Party had to do was ride the crest of energy through their catchy rock, drawing on their grab bag of favorites to keep the mood afloat. Unfortunately, the fog closed back in, the crowd huddled back under their blankets, and Bloc Party took the stage without a gold pom-pom in sight. At some point on the last night of a large-scale outdoor music festival, the audience expects a certain amount of splendor and pizzazz. With lead singer Kele Okereke on stage in blue athletic shorts and a Public Enemy t-shirt, expectations weren’t quite met. Though the crowd responded to hits like “Banquet,” this came too late for the stream of people making their way to the Lands End stage for the one and only Stevie Wonder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px\" src=\"http://a.s.kqed.net/img/arts/blog/outsidecrowd2.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003cbr>\nPhoto: Wendy GoodfriendThere was a choice ahead of me: electronic dance tunes from Skrillex or crowd-pleasing hits from 22-time Grammy Award-winner Stevie Wonder. What would you have done? Mr. Wonder took the stage, along with a full band, back-up singers, and a dynamic light show, to deliver hit after hit, frequently pausing to elicit large-scale audience participation. For those of us with media wristbands, this was the end of a very long working weekend. The free beer in the press tent was all gone, but that didn’t stop everyone from dancing to the sincerely funky groove of “Superstition.” Looking out over the crowd, I realized \u003ci>everyone\u003c/i> was dancing, including the on-call firefighters and every member of the security staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I woke up on Monday morning “I Just Called to Say I Love You” was playing on repeat in my head. With that as a backing soundtrack, I can offer up a few closing lessons from the 2012 \u003cb>Outside Lands\u003c/b> weekend: You can still get sunburned when it’s foggy. If you attend a three-day outdoor music festival with your buddies, you may end up passed out in spandex with purple facial hair. If you attend a three-day outdoor music festival alone, you may end up a little lonely. Dancing while forcing your way through a crowd doesn’t make you any less obnoxious. And leather headbands are all the rage right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

You need a lot of stamina to make it through three days of crowds, raucous music, and uncontrollable dancing. Without rigorous training ahead of time, Sunday found me beat. Another lesson: no matter how tired you are, Santigold will pep you right up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With two backup dancers and three musicians, all in coordinated — if odd — outfits, Santigold put on an impressive show. Her set also demonstrated a great rapport between the artist and her audience. For the jam “Creator” off her 2008 album \u003ci>Santogold\u003c/i>, she invited a gaggle of brightly-dressed ladies from the front row of the audience on stage. The entire production was ridiculously fun. At one point band members dressed in a horse costume (think elementary school play) entered the scene. Even Santigold confessed to being exhausted prior to the show. “We feel invigorated,” she yelled to the happily bouncing crowd, “you’re an amazing inspiration!” She even managed to coax the sun out for a spell, marking the only blue sky I saw all weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px\" src=\"http://a.s.kqed.net/img/arts/blog/outsidecrowd1.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003cbr>\nPhoto: Wendy GoodfriendOn the heels of this rejuvenating set, all Bloc Party had to do was ride the crest of energy through their catchy rock, drawing on their grab bag of favorites to keep the mood afloat. Unfortunately, the fog closed back in, the crowd huddled back under their blankets, and Bloc Party took the stage without a gold pom-pom in sight. At some point on the last night of a large-scale outdoor music festival, the audience expects a certain amount of splendor and pizzazz. With lead singer Kele Okereke on stage in blue athletic shorts and a Public Enemy t-shirt, expectations weren’t quite met. Though the crowd responded to hits like “Banquet,” this came too late for the stream of people making their way to the Lands End stage for the one and only Stevie Wonder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px\" src=\"http://a.s.kqed.net/img/arts/blog/outsidecrowd2.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003cbr>\nPhoto: Wendy GoodfriendThere was a choice ahead of me: electronic dance tunes from Skrillex or crowd-pleasing hits from 22-time Grammy Award-winner Stevie Wonder. What would you have done? Mr. Wonder took the stage, along with a full band, back-up singers, and a dynamic light show, to deliver hit after hit, frequently pausing to elicit large-scale audience participation. For those of us with media wristbands, this was the end of a very long working weekend. The free beer in the press tent was all gone, but that didn’t stop everyone from dancing to the sincerely funky groove of “Superstition.” Looking out over the crowd, I realized \u003ci>everyone\u003c/i> was dancing, including the on-call firefighters and every member of the security staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I woke up on Monday morning “I Just Called to Say I Love You” was playing on repeat in my head. With that as a backing soundtrack, I can offer up a few closing lessons from the 2012 \u003cb>Outside Lands\u003c/b> weekend: You can still get sunburned when it’s foggy. If you attend a three-day outdoor music festival with your buddies, you may end up passed out in spandex with purple facial hair. If you attend a three-day outdoor music festival alone, you may end up a little lonely. Dancing while forcing your way through a crowd doesn’t make you any less obnoxious. And leather headbands are all the rage right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I can’t imagine the average age of Tame Impala band members is over 30, but here they were, channeling psychedelic groove rock from an era well before their time. Each song triggered a game of “sounds like” in my memory banks: Blondie’s “Call Me,” anything by XTC, the Kinks, even Of Montreal.

Which isn’t to say they weren’t great performers. Lead singer Brittany Howard delivers her lyrics with soft hums, harsh growls, and everything in between, creating plenty of opportunities for dynamic builds. Alabama Shakes produced the first truly danceable music I heard all day — and the crowd responded appropriately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px\" src=\"//u.s.kqed.net/2012/08/12/alabamashakes500.jpg\" alt=\"alabama shakes at outside lands\">\u003cbr>\nAlabama Shakes at Outside Lands 2012; Photo: Wendy Goodfriend.Though I originally planned to next see \u003ca href=\"http://www.explosionsinthesky.com/\">Explosions in the Sky\u003c/a>, on my way to the Twin Peaks stage the crush of people between me and my destination dissuaded me. Saturday was way more crowded than Friday. I also had a hankering to hear something completely different than the guitar-heavy first half of my afternoon. Staking out a spot for \u003ca href=\"http://bigboi.com/\">Big Boi\u003c/a> turned out to be a great idea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px\" src=\"//u.s.kqed.net/2012/08/12/bigboi500c.jpg\" alt=\"big boi at outside lands\">\u003cbr>\nBig Boi at Outside Lands 2012; Photo: Wendy Goodfriend.Due to “technical difficulties” last year, Big Boi’s set at 2011’s \u003cb>Outside Lands\u003c/b> turned into a brief (and by all reports strange) impromptu stand-up routine by Dave Chappelle before the performance was outright cancelled. This year, the rapper and crew assured the audience, “if we’re gonna do it, we’re gonna do it right.” OutKast has been on hiatus since 2007, but Big Boi performed a number of their greatest hits, including “Ms. Jackson,” “So Fresh, So Clean,” “B.O.B. (Bombs over Baghdad),” and “Ghetto Musick.” Backed by music videos and a flashing Big Boi logo, the OutKast songs were missing their more melodic half. Big Boi relied on the audience to fill these gaps, laying down his rhymes with incredible speed and fluidity. His solo material was equally well received — 2011’s loss was definitely 2012’s gain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearby, at the Panhandle stage (the coziest of the bunch), local garage rock foursome \u003ca href=\"http://www.theeohsees.com/\">Thee Oh Sees\u003c/a> were delivering upbeat, moshy tunes to a much smaller, but possibly even more enthusiastic audience. Lead singer and guitarist John Dwyer screeched and whooped, his hair completely obscuring his eyes. In fact, everyone in the band was exceedingly fun to watch. Dwyer’s vocal style, especially with keyboardist Brigid Dawson’s backup, was reminiscent of The B-52s’ Fred Schneider. Or, The B-52s’ Fred Schneider if he listened to a lot of the Melvins and lived in the Marina. If that doesn’t sound good, believe me, it is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By this time — 6:30 pm — it was \u003ci>cold\u003c/i>. The fog that never really lifted was getting thicker and wetter by the minute. With a choice between \u003ca href=\"http://www2.norahjones.com/\">Norah Jones\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.passionpitmusic.com/home\">Passion Pit\u003c/a>, I chose warmth. I found it within the tightly packed crowd at the Twin Peaks stage, but Passion Pit’s pop wasn’t as mood-lifting as I’d hoped. It definitely didn’t make me forget my tired feet. Perhaps I’d been alone at \u003cb>Outside Lands\u003c/b> for too many hours without a personal supply of hard liquor (as did most people around me). For brief moments at a time, the band did achieve their full electropop sound and carried the whole crowd into boppy good cheer. But even without the band’s help, I remembered a crucial element of large music performances: crowd camaraderie. As people pushed and shoved, jockeying for a better view of the misty pink stage, each group of strangers became a unit, banded together by proximity and their attempts at keeping everyone around them in good humor, enjoying each other as much as the music they came to see.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The one Passion Pit song I kind of wanted to hear echoed over Martin Luther King Drive as I biked home, a fitting close to a full day. It’s title? “Sleepyhead.” One more day to go — here’s hoping for just a little sunshine to match everyone’s good spirits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Outside Lands\u003c/b> continues August 12, 2012.

This year, the rapper and crew assured the audience, “if we’re gonna do it, we’re gonna do it right.” OutKast has been on hiatus since 2007, but Big Boi performed a number of their greatest hits, including “Ms. Jackson,” “So Fresh, So Clean,” “B.O.B. (Bombs over Baghdad),” and “Ghetto Musick.” Backed by music videos and a flashing Big Boi logo, the OutKast songs were missing their more melodic half. Big Boi relied on the audience to fill these gaps, laying down his rhymes with incredible speed and fluidity. His solo material was equally well received — 2011’s loss was definitely 2012’s gain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearby, at the Panhandle stage (the coziest of the bunch), local garage rock foursome \u003ca href=\"http://www.theeohsees.com/\">Thee Oh Sees\u003c/a> were delivering upbeat, moshy tunes to a much smaller, but possibly even more enthusiastic audience. Lead singer and guitarist John Dwyer screeched and whooped, his hair completely obscuring his eyes. In fact, everyone in the band was exceedingly fun to watch. Dwyer’s vocal style, especially with keyboardist Brigid Dawson’s backup, was reminiscent of The B-52s’ Fred Schneider. Or, The B-52s’ Fred Schneider if he listened to a lot of the Melvins and lived in the Marina. If that doesn’t sound good, believe me, it is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By this time — 6:30 pm — it was \u003ci>cold\u003c/i>. The fog that never really lifted was getting thicker and wetter by the minute. With a choice between \u003ca href=\"http://www2.norahjones.com/\">Norah Jones\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.passionpitmusic.com/home\">Passion Pit\u003c/a>, I chose warmth. I found it within the tightly packed crowd at the Twin Peaks stage, but Passion Pit’s pop wasn’t as mood-lifting as I’d hoped. It definitely didn’t make me forget my tired feet. Perhaps I’d been alone at \u003cb>Outside Lands\u003c/b> for too many hours without a personal supply of hard liquor (as did most people around me). For brief moments at a time, the band did achieve their full electropop sound and carried the whole crowd into boppy good cheer. But even without the band’s help, I remembered a crucial element of large music performances: crowd camaraderie. As people pushed and shoved, jockeying for a better view of the misty pink stage, each group of strangers became a unit, banded together by proximity and their attempts at keeping everyone around them in good humor, enjoying each other as much as the music they came to see.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The one Passion Pit song I kind of wanted to hear echoed over Martin Luther King Drive as I biked home, a fitting close to a full day. It’s title? “Sleepyhead.” One more day to go — here’s hoping for just a little sunshine to match everyone’s good spirits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Outside Lands\u003c/b> continues August 12, 2012.

For 32 minutes straight, they played without stopping more than a half-beat between songs, building relentless sonic attacks through cyclical crescendos and driving, rapid beats. White Denim projected stadium-sized rock off the stage to a crowd ill-fitting their gigantic sound. Given all this, vocals seem unnecessary, but White Denim delivered those too. Lead singer James Petralli swung from croon to growl, impressively and effectively. Their second-to-last-song and undeniable hit of the set, “Street Joy,” started soft and slow but built to an epic, rumbling finish. It’s a shame more people weren’t around for their performance — they set a high water mark for the rest Friday’s acts and I, in my limited ability to see and hear everything, couldn’t find their better.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px\" src=\"//u.s.kqed.net/2012/08/11/whitedenim500a.jpg\" alt=\"white denim at outside lands\">\u003cbr>\nWhite Denim at Outside Lands 2012; Photo: Wendy Goodfriend.\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px\" src=\"//u.s.kqed.net/2012/08/11/sharonvanetten500a.jpg\" alt=\"sharon van etten at outside lands\">\u003cbr>\nSharon Van Etten at Outside Lands 2012; Photo: Wendy Goodfriend.With White Denim still ringing in my ears, I secured a pair of fluorescent orange earplugs and staked out space for \u003ca href=\"http://sharonvanetten.com/\">Sharon Van Etten\u003c/a>. After such a loud, high energy set, her confessional folk-tinged songs were a bit of a come down. Was it the sleepy bedroom nature of her music, or was she a lackluster performer? The answer came as she warmed up, and her light tone shifted into the spooky, haunting “Give Out.” “This song’s about moving to New York City for love,” she announced before starting. Then, as an off-mic aside: “You can throw up now.” After White Denim’s nonstop tunes, Van Etten’s between-song quips were charming, if self-deprecating. After “Serpents,” the first song she wrote for electric guitar — a darkly infectious melody — she shouted, “That song’s only three chords, anybody can play it!” Thankfully, it wasn’t just anybody up there, but Van Etten and her skillful backing band.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px\" src=\"//u.s.kqed.net/2012/08/11/reggiewatts500a.jpg\" alt=\"reggie watts at outside lands\">\u003cbr>\nReggie Watts at Outside Lands 2012; Photo: Wendy Goodfriend.It was hard to leave the Sutro stage, especially since musician/comedian \u003ca href=\"http://reggiewatts.com/\">Reggie Watts\u003c/a> was next in the lineup.

Watts was met with huge cheers and unbridled laughter. As clever and funny as he is, it’s equally fascinating to watch him build his songs onstage, adding each element in successive layers until he’s assembled something that doesn’t sound too far off from a studio-produced jam. Many of his songs addressed the \u003cb>Outside Lands\u003c/b> crowd specifically. “You’ve got a long day ahead of you, pick your battles well,” he sang.

"content": "\u003cp>Certain things in life are inevitable. Buying a box of girl scout cookies to share, but accidentally eating all of them by yourself. Hitting the open bar at your cousin’s wedding a smidge too hard. Church giggles. And the coup de grace, having your heart yanked out of your chest and eaten with some fava beans and a nice chianti by that jerk you made mix-tapes for and shacked up with for a couple of years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Humans have been screwing each other over romantically since the Paleolithic Age (it’s-not-you-it’s-me cave drawings some Neanderthal left for his sleeping partner will be found any day now). But one advantage we have over our less-evolved distant cousins is the therapeutic powers of music. Approximately 97.4 percent of songs are about matters of the broken heart (this is not a scientific estimate; I was a lit major), all of which can assist you in running the gauntlet of the grieving process. Denial, bargaining, anger, depression, acceptance: No one said this was going to be easy, but it sure will sound good!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large\">DENIAL\u003c/span>\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite how realistic and level-headed you think you are, your first impulse after getting dumped is that this must be some sort of mistake. You don’t get kicked to the curb! You got a perfect verbal score on the SAT! You read a book a week and watch foreign films! You can tie a cherry stem with your tongue! Alas, it is so, but it’ll take some time for that to sink into your distressed brain. While you wait for that to happen, hang out with the following musicians who are also kidding themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>THE HUMAN LEAGUE: DON’T YOU WANT ME\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/uPudE8nDog0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re going to be pitiful, you might as well do it to a good dance beat. The protagonist in “Don’t You Want Me” just can’t get it through his head: “You know I can’t believe it when I hear that you won’t see me.” Potential stalker alert! His ex then gives us her side of the story: “The five years we have had have been such good times. I still love you, but now I think it’s time I live my life on my own.” Despite her straightforward admission, he can’t help but repeatedly ask her: “Don’t you want me, baby?” Remember this dude next time you’re in the same position and intuit that the answer is: No, not really.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>THE MAGNETIC FIELDS: I DON’T WANT TO GET OVER YOU\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/WVEhNHIzJec\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Few know more about love songs than Stephen Merritt, who wrote and recorded 69 of them for the Magnetic Fields’ wonderful \u003ci>69 Love Songs\u003c/i> album. In “I Don’t Want to Get Over You,” Merritt resists getting over love through Prozac, cloves, and Camus (you know it’s bad when that Frenchie shows up). Unfortunately, as much fun as that combo sounds, no amount of pills, smokes, or French absurdism can keep reality at bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS: NOT CRYING\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/ZGes7FDmHAM\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breaking up is a sad business, but that doesn’t mean it can’t occasionally be hilarious. In “Not Crying,” New Zealand comedy duo Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement, better known as Flight of the Conchords, sum up those moments when we let our pride deny the fact that we’re actually hurt, like when you fall on your face in public and immediately exclaim, “I’m fine! I’m OK!” while blood pours out of your ear. The boys try to cover up their tears with creative excuses: rain on the face, sweaty eyes, thoughts of a dying friend, the ever-popular dust in the eye, and, best for last, “just been cutting onions. I’m making a lasagna…for one.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large\">ANGER\u003c/span>\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So you’ve realized that this breakup isn’t an accident like getting someone else’s subscription to \u003ci>US Weekly\u003c/i> (and keeping it). Now comes the rage! This is the entertaining part (for your friends, less so for your ex). You might slash a tire or shout charged epithets at their bedroom window or perhaps you just punch a pillow in the privacy of your own home (yeah, right). Whatever path you choose, these songs will help you feel better about \u003ca href=\"http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4p39pBabW1qj3iw6o6_1280.jpg\">your crazy eyes\u003c/a> and that popping vein in your neck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>ALANIS MORISSETTE: YOU OUGHTA KNOW\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/NPcyTyilmYY\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the definitive song for spurned lovers everywhere. Alanis is pissed and won’t let her ex forget it, throwing barbed reminders like “You told me you’d hold me until you died, but you’re still alive!” And my favorite lyrical kick in the teeth: “Every time I scratch my nails down someone else’s back, I hope you feel it. Well, can you feel it?!” And to think that it was all inspired by \u003ca href=\"http://onwardstate.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Uncle-Joey.jpg\">Full House’s blundering Uncle Joey\u003c/a>! \u003ca href=\"http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A0xh8IsrdA8/So2p3og1KSI/AAAAAAAAANs/3fjySw2vvZQ/s400/stamos004.jpg\">Uncle Jesse\u003c/a> would make a lot more sense (have mercy!).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>FLEETWOOD MAC: GO YOUR OWN WAY\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/0XlaiTKIXqs\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How do you pick just one breakup jam from the band most notorious for incestuous hook ups and messier splits? Go with the one with the highest play count in your iTunes of course! “Go Your Own Way” was the first single off of the incredibly successful/insanely good \u003ci>Rumours\u003c/i> (recorded in Sausalito!) and is Lindsay Buckingham’s way of telling his lover of many years, Stevie Nicks, to take a hike. Which is more than a little awkward since they had to go on to perform the song for the next couple of decades. Don’t worry, Stevie got plenty of musical shots in herself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>ERYKAH BADU: TYRONE\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/YY2-mrsXgMM\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erykah has had enough of her freeloading boyfriend, who expects her to fund his antics, as well as those of his friends and even his cousin. She advises him to call one of his buddies named Tyrone to help him move his stuff. But he can’t use her phone. Boom. That’s how a kiss-off is done properly, ladies and gentlemen! Make sure to watch the performance above. Classic Badu sass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large\">BARGAINING\u003c/span>\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oh, boy. This stage is the least flattering, like \u003ca href=\"http://militarytimes.com/blogs/outside-the-wire/files/2011/06/five-finger-shoe.jpg\">those weird toe shoes\u003c/a>. You beg and you plead, anything to not have to be on your own. You really should gather some dignity and stop prostrating yourself in front of someone who’s just not that into you anymore, but that’s easier said than done. So, while you’re down there being pathetic, give these tracks a listen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>NINA SIMONE: NE ME QUITTE PAS\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/TI8F6DbB2cE\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I always wondered where my minor in French would come in handy and now I have the answer: translating the lyrics to this song and then feeling really sad! Nina begs for her lover not to leave and offers overtures of reconciliation: “I will offer you pearls made of rain coming from countries where it never rains. I will work the earth until I die to cover your body with gold and light. I will create a kingdom for you.” That’s super sweet and all, but do it for someone who cares!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>THE BEATLES: WE CAN WORK IT OUT\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/VuVTO4DAVXc\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cute British boys pleading again and again to work things out. They even get all existential when presenting their case: “Life is very short and there’s no time for fussing and fighting.” How anyone could deny a second go of things to any of these lads is beyond me. Just look at John’s darling smile and sideways glance in this video!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>JACKSON 5: I WANT YOU BACK\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/s3Q80mk7bxE]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Don’t be confused by the upbeat cheer of adorable tween Michael Jackson.

In “Divorce Song,” she paints a desolate picture of a marriage coming apart at the seams. “And the license said you had to stick around until I was dead, but, if you’re tired of looking at my face, I guess I already am.” Yikes! Phair doesn’t run from that cutting realization, she embraces it and sends her ex off with grace: “But you’ve never been a waste of my time, it’s never been a drag, so take a deep breath and count back from ten and maybe you’ll be all right.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>GLORIA GAYNOR: I WILL SURVIVE\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/ZBR2G-iI3-I\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It doesn’t get more empowering than this. “I Will Survive” describes the phases we covered above that led you to this place of strength and resilience. Breakups can teach you a lot of things, and so can this song. Let us count the ways: 1. you should probably change the locks after your ex breaks up with you. 2. going back to the one who “tried to hurt [you] with goodbye” is not an option. 3. only save all your lovin’ for someone who’s lovin’ you. 4. you can survive anything (with a little help from your friends and bottomless mimosas).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DOLLY PARTON: I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/gS-F4rfU4ns\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’re tearing up just thinking about this song, aren’t you? Whitney gets a lot of the credit, but this beautiful ode of acceptance is all Dolly. She perfectly captures the place we all hope to reach: one where we accept that things are not meant to be and can find it within ourselves to truly wish our exes joy, happiness, and above all this, love. Once you’re capable of this, your grieving process is finally complete and it’s back to that battlefield we call love. May the odds be ever in your favor!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And because they don’t love you like I love you, I present this Spotify playlist of the songs above, as well as all the others I couldn’t fit in this space.

Hitting the open bar at your cousin’s wedding a smidge too hard. Church giggles. And the coup de grace, having your heart yanked out of your chest and eaten with some fava beans and a nice chianti by that jerk you made mix-tapes for and shacked up with for a couple of years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Humans have been screwing each other over romantically since the Paleolithic Age (it’s-not-you-it’s-me cave drawings some Neanderthal left for his sleeping partner will be found any day now). But one advantage we have over our less-evolved distant cousins is the therapeutic powers of music. Approximately 97.4 percent of songs are about matters of the broken heart (this is not a scientific estimate; I was a lit major), all of which can assist you in running the gauntlet of the grieving process. Denial, bargaining, anger, depression, acceptance: No one said this was going to be easy, but it sure will sound good!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large\">DENIAL\u003c/span>\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite how realistic and level-headed you think you are, your first impulse after getting dumped is that this must be some sort of mistake.

Alas, it is so, but it’ll take some time for that to sink into your distressed brain. While you wait for that to happen, hang out with the following musicians who are also kidding themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>THE HUMAN LEAGUE: DON’T YOU WANT ME\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The protagonist in “Don’t You Want Me” just can’t get it through his head: “You know I can’t believe it when I hear that you won’t see me.” Potential stalker alert! His ex then gives us her side of the story: “The five years we have had have been such good times. I still love you, but now I think it’s time I live my life on my own.” Despite her straightforward admission, he can’t help but repeatedly ask her: “Don’t you want me, baby?” Remember this dude next time you’re in the same position and intuit that the answer is: No, not really.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>THE MAGNETIC FIELDS: I DON’T WANT TO GET OVER YOU\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/WVEhNHIzJec'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/WVEhNHIzJec'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Few know more about love songs than Stephen Merritt, who wrote and recorded 69 of them for the Magnetic Fields’ wonderful \u003ci>69 Love Songs\u003c/i> album. In “I Don’t Want to Get Over You,” Merritt resists getting over love through Prozac, cloves, and Camus (you know it’s bad when that Frenchie shows up). Unfortunately, as much fun as that combo sounds, no amount of pills, smokes, or French absurdism can keep reality at bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS: NOT CRYING\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/ZGes7FDmHAM'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/ZGes7FDmHAM'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Breaking up is a sad business, but that doesn’t mean it can’t occasionally be hilarious. In “Not Crying,” New Zealand comedy duo Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement, better known as Flight of the Conchords, sum up those moments when we let our pride deny the fact that we’re actually hurt, like when you fall on your face in public and immediately exclaim, “I’m fine! I’m OK!” while blood pours out of your ear. The boys try to cover up their tears with creative excuses: rain on the face, sweaty eyes, thoughts of a dying friend, the ever-popular dust in the eye, and, best for last, “just been cutting onions. I’m making a lasagna…for one.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large\">ANGER\u003c/span>\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So you’ve realized that this breakup isn’t an accident like getting someone else’s subscription to \u003ci>US Weekly\u003c/i> (and keeping it). Now comes the rage! This is the entertaining part (for your friends, less so for your ex). You might slash a tire or shout charged epithets at their bedroom window or perhaps you just punch a pillow in the privacy of your own home (yeah, right). Whatever path you choose, these songs will help you feel better about \u003ca href=\"http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4p39pBabW1qj3iw6o6_1280.jpg\">your crazy eyes\u003c/a> and that popping vein in your neck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>ALANIS MORISSETTE: YOU OUGHTA KNOW\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/NPcyTyilmYY'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/NPcyTyilmYY'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>This is the definitive song for spurned lovers everywhere. Alanis is pissed and won’t let her ex forget it, throwing barbed reminders like “You told me you’d hold me until you died, but you’re still alive!” And my favorite lyrical kick in the teeth: “Every time I scratch my nails down someone else’s back, I hope you feel it. Well, can you feel it?!” And to think that it was all inspired by \u003ca href=\"http://onwardstate.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Uncle-Joey.jpg\">Full House’s blundering Uncle Joey\u003c/a>! \u003ca href=\"http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A0xh8IsrdA8/So2p3og1KSI/AAAAAAAAANs/3fjySw2vvZQ/s400/stamos004.jpg\">Uncle Jesse\u003c/a> would make a lot more sense (have mercy!).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>FLEETWOOD MAC: GO YOUR OWN WAY\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/0XlaiTKIXqs'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/0XlaiTKIXqs'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>How do you pick just one breakup jam from the band most notorious for incestuous hook ups and messier splits? Go with the one with the highest play count in your iTunes of course! “Go Your Own Way” was the first single off of the incredibly successful/insanely good \u003ci>Rumours\u003c/i> (recorded in Sausalito!) and is Lindsay Buckingham’s way of telling his lover of many years, Stevie Nicks, to take a hike. Which is more than a little awkward since they had to go on to perform the song for the next couple of decades. Don’t worry, Stevie got plenty of musical shots in herself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>ERYKAH BADU: TYRONE\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/YY2-mrsXgMM'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/YY2-mrsXgMM'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Erykah has had enough of her freeloading boyfriend, who expects her to fund his antics, as well as those of his friends and even his cousin.

You beg and you plead, anything to not have to be on your own.

I will work the earth until I die to cover your body with gold and light. I will create a kingdom for you.” That’s super sweet and all, but do it for someone who cares!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>THE BEATLES: WE CAN WORK IT OUT\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/VuVTO4DAVXc'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/VuVTO4DAVXc'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Cute British boys pleading again and again to work things out.

In “Divorce Song,” she paints a desolate picture of a marriage coming apart at the seams. “And the license said you had to stick around until I was dead, but, if you’re tired of looking at my face, I guess I already am.” Yikes! Phair doesn’t run from that cutting realization, she embraces it and sends her ex off with grace: “But you’ve never been a waste of my time, it’s never been a drag, so take a deep breath and count back from ten and maybe you’ll be all right.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>GLORIA GAYNOR: I WILL SURVIVE\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/ZBR2G-iI3-I'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/ZBR2G-iI3-I'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>It doesn’t get more empowering than this. “I Will Survive” describes the phases we covered above that led you to this place of strength and resilience. Breakups can teach you a lot of things, and so can this song. Let us count the ways: 1. you should probably change the locks after your ex breaks up with you. 2. going back to the one who “tried to hurt [you] with goodbye” is not an option. 3. only save all your lovin’ for someone who’s lovin’ you. 4. you can survive anything (with a little help from your friends and bottomless mimosas).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DOLLY PARTON: I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/gS-F4rfU4ns'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/gS-F4rfU4ns'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>You’re tearing up just thinking about this song, aren’t you? Whitney gets a lot of the credit, but this beautiful ode of acceptance is all Dolly. She perfectly captures the place we all hope to reach: one where we accept that things are not meant to be and can find it within ourselves to truly wish our exes joy, happiness, and above all this, love. Once you’re capable of this, your grieving process is finally complete and it’s back to that battlefield we call love. May the odds be ever in your favor!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
