I mean trying to pick my one favorite Nickleback song is like trying to decide which of my children gets to live. Do you still want a copy of that mix CD? You are right, why should I cut things back.

Or, make it an mp3 CD. And send me a copy. My opinion: open your Best of the Decade mix to a double CD and have at it. Or, make it an mp3 CD. And send me a copy.

Both are still on my end of the decade mix CD list. (Been widling that down for 6 months now, still at 50+ tracks, don't think it's gonna happen). I especially like that Walkmen song. The intensity of the vocal performance and the interaction with the soulful organ really dials up that raw/warm sound that they do so well. It's interesting to see Hamilton Leithauser sing this song live. He strains every line even harder to the point where if they had put it to tape it that way, it would sound ridiculous on record. When I saw them down at the TLA I thought for sure that bits of his vocal chords might come flying out of his mouth at any time.<br><br>Someday is the kind of delicate, poppy rock song that represents what I feel The Strokes do best. I have this preconception that it is the Albert Hammond Jr. influenced material (based on his solo stuff), but I have no idea if that is at all valid. Those are two great picks.

Someday is the kind of delicate, poppy rock song that represents what I feel The Strokes do best. I have this preconception that it is the Albert Hammond Jr. influenced material (based on his solo stuff), but I have no idea if that is at all valid.
