Great Tune
I've listened to Cat Power's "Willie" about ten times today. Just a fantastic tune.
It has the same breezy feel as Iron and Wine's "The Trapeze Singer", but it's more bluesy, and just plain better.
An early contender for Mr. Shafrir Song of the Year.
Stevie Wonder's "Part Time Lover" is currently leading the "Oldies but Goodies" category with "Let it Be" by The Beatles a close contender in the Place spot.
I also bought two versions of Daniel Powter's "Bad Day" -- the single and the acoustic version -- after hearing it on an American Idol show a few weeks back. I then saw a short feature of him on MTV so I figured I'd check it out.
The Verdict: A catchy song that I could listen to a few more times before it shows up this May on "The Hills".
iTunes Balance: $11.00.
Finally, last night I was coaxed into some 3AM karaoke at Planet Rose. Don't worry all you fans: I warmed them up with "Dead or Alive" before I kicked ass and took names with "Maybe I'm Amazed".

It's kind of like saying pepperoni is better than cheese pizza.
It's obvious, but at the end of the day, at least you're still eating pizza. Or something like that.
