Today’s favorites, hyperdrive songs, in no particular order:

1. Jack and Tina–by Morphine, the most dangerous and wicked-sounding band ever.

2. Speedway at Nazareth–Mark Knopfler

3. Ran–Vampire Weekend

4.Crosseyed and Painless–Talking Heads (in a magic ipod moment, a direct shuffle from Vampire Weekend, illustrating just how much, etymologically, Vampire owes to David Byrne.)

5. No Cars Go–Arcade Fire (Do I really have another three weeks of driving?)
