1. power of two (ig) - now the things that i am afraid of i'm not afraid to tell / and if we ever leave a legacy it's that we loved each other well
2. lovetown (peter gabriel) - Sometimes you're stormy water / on which I pour my oil / In each other's shadow / The roots reach into the soil / All these knots so tightly tied / We could not uncoil
3. Coalhouse's Soliloquy (Ragtime) - Now, / I'll play them the music / Of something beginning, / An era exploding, / A century spinning- / My law and my justice / In rhythm and rhyme!
4. Cunt Country (Alix Olson) - To the Museum of Un-Natural His-Story... And Behind velvet rope, ancient relics of the past, like: / Female Guilt, Circumcision knives, Certificates turning whole people into Wives.
5. Satellite (Rachael Sage) - i am old and i do not hold / the keys to your happiness / how to stay close when distance grows / between east and wet / what do i have to offer you / to cross this great divide?... listen here / look around
6. For Sentimental Reasons (Ella Fitzgerald, words by Deek Watson) - I love you and you alone were meant for me / Please give your loving heart to me / And say we'll never part / I think of you every morning / Dream of you every night / Darling, I'm never lonely / Whenever you are in sight
7. Grazin' in the Grass (the Friends of Distinction) - Everything here is so clear, you can see it / And everything here is so real, you can feel it /
And it's real, so real, so real, so real, so real, so real / Can you dig it
8. Home (Blessid Union) - He said / Take me to a world that's filled with happy people / Take me to a land where the poor men are the rich ones / Where there are smiling faces and the lonely ain't alone
9. She's Got a Way (Billy Joel) - She comes to me when I'm feelin' down / Inspires me without a sound / She touches me and I get turned around
10. The Life of the Party (Wild Party) - Who needs lovers? / Not I. / Who needs Heaven above? / Don't have time for things unsaid / For baking bread / For love.
11. Something to Hold Onto (Wailin Jennys) - Got some friends knocking on my door / wondering where i've been / tired of mining for your heart / I've come up for air again
12. You and the Mona Lisa (Shawn Colvin) - Oh I love you the most / Always giving up the ghost / In your own private conversation / You're a sweet mystery / There is nothing in between...
13. Mother (Tori) - Green limousine for the redhead dancing dancing girl / And when I dance for him / Somebody leave the light on / Just in just in case I like the dancing
14. Popular (Wicked) - Don't be offended by my frank analysis / Think of it as personality dialysis
15. Another Man's Done Gone (Wilco) - 15. Sometimes I think I'm gonna lose my mind / But it don't look like I ever do / I've loved so many people everywhere I went / Some too much, and others not enough
16. Waltzin' Back (Cranberries) - Say, what they gonna do / What they gonna say / Taking you away / From my life, my life, my life ... Who gave them the right / Turning you back into denial / Denied their fear / Wished that they never come here
17. Caramel (Vega) I know your name / I know your skin / I know the way these things begin
18. Memphis (Catie Curtis) Everybody's got a heart to follow, / Everybody's got to make that call / As I look around the hotel scene / I'm doing pretty good with my band / People come shake my hand / But true love is what I need
19. The Want of a Nail (Todd Rundgren/Camp) What’s all this talk about horses and war? / Put yourself in the place of the man at the forge / And day after day you live a life without love / ’til the morning you can’t take it anymore
20. After Midnight (JJ Cale/Eric Clapton) We’re gonna stimulate some action; / We’re gonna get some satisfaction. / We’re gonna find out what it is all about.
