The First Monthly Request Post

I think I really am going to take tomorrow off. I've thrown up a post every day for like a month now.

I've been getting emails from time to time asking me about certain bands/tracks, so yesterday I figured I'd start making a monthly request post. Think of it as christmas in march. Or maybe your birthday's in march. In that case, happy birthday.

This first track was requested about a week ago. It was actually a two-part request, and I was unable to fill the second part.

Mikka in Germany:
Could you please help me find two other rare songs? The first is called "the present" and is originally on the sampler "help: a day in the life". The other one is "american kids."

Well, "The Present" I do have. It released on Always New Depths: The Complete Silent Alarm B-Sides & Remixes. Not to be confused with Silent Alarm: Remixed.

Bloc Party- The Present


"American Kids," however, I could not find. From what I have found, all that is available is a 55 second clip. The song was recorded way back in the day, when the band was called Angel Range, and a full version of the song does not exist online.

Anyone care to prove me wrong?

The next 3three requests came just yesterday, and again, I was stumped by one of them. For a different reason.

Garrison in Oregon:
Hold Steady - "Modest isnt that sweet"
Hold Steady - "You have to dance with who you came with"

the song i would literally kill for...
OLIVER FUTURE - "Marcello Mastrioanni"

please. please please.


Well, G, I have the two Hold Steady tracks for you, but I don't know anything about Oliver Future, and can't find that track anywhere.

The two Hold Steady tracks released as bonus tracks to the Australian edition of Almost Killed Me...

The Hold Steady - Modesto is not that Sweet

The Hold Steady - You Gotta Dance (With Who You Came With)

The next request came today, and I'm pretty proud of myself, as it's the only request I have been able to fill completely.

Nate in I don't know where:
Thanks for the rare Kings Of Leon. I'm currently after "Where Nobody Knows." Do you have this song?

Yes, Nate, I do have that song. "Where Nobody Knows" came out as a bonus track on Aha Shake Heartbreak...

Kings of Leon- Where Nobody Knows

Ok, there are a couple more requests that I'm working on filling, so check back; I'll probably be editing things in throughout the weekend.

Enjoy.

And feel free to request more: denton@bornbytheriver.com

Never heard of/came across Always New Depths: The Complete Silent Alarm B-Sides & Remixes. Help? Track listings, where to finds, a few mp3s... anything would be good.

:D

I've only got the instrumental of American Kids by Bloc Party... which is weird, you would think it would be harder to find the instrumental than finding the full version. i'll track it down though.

Any hot chip B-sides would be really cool

I've got a longer "American Kids" somewhere...

I've been looking EVERYWHERE for "Two More Years". Nobody seems to have it around my area. I can't really order it online, I'm only 17.

Also could you post up the the Streets remix of Banquet but JUST the song? I can't find it anywhere. I think I read somewhere it only comes on the Japan version or something.

Thanks alot, you've really opened my ears to Bloc Party.

American Kids *is* an intrumental track of about a minute in length, originally used to transition between songs in gigs, like The Arctic Monkeys' 'Chun Li's Spinning Bird Kick'.

Is there any chance that you have Caveliers and roundheads, the new b-side from bloc party? thanks.

Specifically, what it was that set them off during the bedroom. Naturally, however, the problem of penis sizegenetics was broached more than once, and these ladies were not shy with their opinions. However, what they said surprised me a tad and will probably surprise a great number of guys. Here's the truth about penis sizegenetics from two women may possibly experienced their share.sizegenetics matters, but bigger may not be always better. One on the girls pointed out the fact that a number of female orgasms in sizegenetics films (where there're generally having sex with guys whom are massively endowed) are very obviously faked.
