Week #2 of the countdown means we’re on to the Top 10…

“Teenage Wasteland” – Wussy

Songs about falling in love with music will always be made. But are we at the end of the age of songs like this? Songs about living in rural America and having your life changed by amazing music that rolls in on the radio waves from distant cities? “Kids these days, with their Interwebs and their file sharing…”

As a lover of music, a lover of radio, and a lover of Wussy, this song scratches me right where I itch.

Stuck in the corn maze with only a transistor radio
Making paths with the sound waves and echoes and Oh Baba-oh-oh-oh…
