Feel The Spin Playlist, January 17th...

Hour 1
(Brand-new music. The new year is finally heating up with some substantial and cool new songs. I'm still hardcore obsessing on Ke$ha, but now also really loving Hurts and the new Massive Attack cut. Also, I'm convinced that Matt Morris needs to be a superstar. Let's make it happen!)

I Want It All - Dangerous Muse
The Fireman Of My Dreams - Elouise
Kissing A Porn Star - J. Marie Cooper
Tik-Tok - Ke$ha
Kiss And Tell - Ke$ha
Into The Clouds - Sound Of Arrows
Paradise Circus - Massive Attack
Wonderful Life - Hurts
Never Gonna Give In - Michaela Wright
A Loaded Smile - Adam Lambert
Money - Matt Morris

Hour 2
(This is another of those hours that was built around wanting to play one particular song, "Calm Under The Waves" by Maria Mena. That song is EXQUISITE... thank you, Steve Anderson for sharing it with me. The rest of the songs fell into place around it quite comfortably. This hour isn't a giggle-fest. Rather, it's deep, occasionally dark, and totally out-of-body.)

Mississippi Valentine - Kara DioGuardi
Without You (From "Rent") - Siobhan Donaghy
Sober -Pink

Saturn - Jen Foster
The Call - Matt Kennon
