Teenage Radio! I found a bunch of stuff from an old hard drive that I haven't used since I was 16, so enjoy a representative sample of stuff that made the teenage Whelk weep for joy (Pillow fight in #Bunnies)

I'm in! I'll take a much needed break from tracking 2009 releases for my year end listen.

ON PREVIEW: Gene Pitney, nice. I love his voice.

I had to walk over and see what this was - I thought it was Mary Weiss at first (it was Dresden Dolls, who I thought I didn't like, but this tune is fab!).
