Fancy pickin from one of the best ever!

Courtney Barnett - Avant Gardener
It get easier. Every day it gets easier, but you gotta do it everyday. That's the hard part.

Sounds like a Sonic Youth guitar solo at 2:25.

I don't know why, but I like it. And I like the quote too:
It get easier. Every day it gets easier, but you gotta do it everyday. That's the hard part.

The wikipedia page for Courtney Barnett is pretty interesting. She has a bunch of interestingly named publications: A Sea of Split Peas, Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit, Tell Me How You Really Feel, Pedestrian at Best. The list goes on and it's clear that she's extremely creative and original.

Nada Surf - Fruit Fly (Live on KEXP)
Bands that write songs like this get my respect. Not a cheap commercial knock off. Interesting topic and development of the topic.

mrgreen: VERY INTERESTING TOPIC! I love it when people get away from normal pop topics. Creativity. You gotta love it. We could use a lot more creativity in this world! Commercialism is the enemy of creativity.

Guided by Voices - Everybody Thinks I'm a Raincloud (When I'm Not Looking)
Words to live by....

One Of These Things First
This is from way back in 1970. Never heard it until today. It'll make a great theme song.

The Bottle Rockets - Bit Logic
I didn't think I'd ever come up with a theme song, but this one works for me! The band is The Bottle Rockets - great roots rock with smart lyrics.

Don't Cry No Tears
From the album Zuma by Neil Young.

Flowers On The Wall
If I must have a theme song, this one is probably the one I'd go with....
