I was one sick puppy, so I didn't get around to the Friday Fifteen yesterday. Yeah, sorry to disappoint all three of you. Anyhow, this week is another mishmash of indie rawk, blue-eyed soul, a smashing cover of a Van Halen song, and a couple of retro-pop jewels from Sweden's amazing Labrador label, which has a fine selection of free mp3's on their site if you dig the tunes.

Click the big play button to listen while you read -- clicking the individual songs will only play 30 second clips. TIP: Click the little box on the lower right hand corner and the player will open in a pop up window so you can surf and listen. Hope you enjoy, and if you have any comments while the system is down you can drop me an email.

Track listing after the jump.

Thought I'd share a photo I took early this moving at my storage space.

The weirdness of my life never fails to amaze me.

What do you have to publish to get a PG-13 or an R from this widget? Either these ratings standards are diluted (or deluded), or else we aren't trying hard enough.

Update: Neatorama got an NC-17, so they really are kidding.
