Listened to UP and Traffic and Weather this am as I was making Easter brunch. The latter was a mainstay in my car CD player after it came out. It’s obviously not on the level of its two predecessors and has fewer classics. But it holds up better than I remember and that the circumstances surrounding its recording would suggest.

^ Squeeze's Glenn Tilbrook's new cover of Hackensack

Hackensack is the best FoW song.(also, Glenn Tilbrook is one of my all-time favorite songwriters, but this cover is a bit limp -- dude *is* in his 60's after all)

That's more like it -- back in 2003, Glenn still had the juice (I think i saw that solo tour)

Watched Josie and the Pussycats with the kids tonight. Of course Adam is all over the soundtrack, but I've always thought this one by him was a career power-pop highpoint:
