Sleeping In

Are you tired of me blogging about songs that have to do with the lack of sleep I get as a parent?

Too bad.  Here's another today.  It's from The Postal Service, the supergroup consisting of Ben Gibbard of Death Cab For Cutie, electronic musician Jimmy Tamborello (AKA Dntel) and Jenny Lewis (one of my favorites!) of Rilo Kiley.  In 2003 they released their only album GIVE UP. 

Today's song is the third track from that album:

 
 
 
 
All right, enough of the serious stuff.  My favorite time has come ANOTHER GIVEAWAY!  It's a magic time when I've blogged about enough songs to fill a compilation disc and give it away along with other crap I'm trying to get rid of around the house. 
 
 
"Compilation Disc!" you might say.  What year is this, 1999?  No, it's 2015 but I'm still nostalgic for a good compilation disc.  So what I do is take the last 18 songs I've blogged about most recently and configure them in a good order so that you have your very own disc of songs to listen to as you commute, work or go on a road trip or whatever. 
 
So, I'm happy to present to you "The Songs Stuck in Brady's Head: Volume 10!" 
 
And this one is a real treat!  It's full of more radio hits than any of the other compilations I've given away here.  It's also my most retro, with several hits from the 60's 70's 80's and 90's.  But don't worry, it has some of that more obscure stuff too, if that's your thing. 
 
 
 
"This compilation disc is really, really good" 
-Barbara Bush
 
Compilation disc #10 comes along with 10 CD's I have lying around the house.  10 is the magic number:

-Dom Deluise
 
And lastly, with the magic giveaway number being 10, I reckon we'll give you 10 pieces of Hi-Chew Candy or something like that.
