Awesome choices! I love me the Bangles. Here's a couple more obscure, but equally cool cuts:

The last song/video also has Paul Westerberg, which makes it aces in my book. Rock on!

Go Betty Go! I love that band! I downloaded their album NOTHING IS MORE from eMusic, and it really kicks out the jams. Awesome to hear "Saturday" on a Friday!

Never heard the Faders tune, I will definitely check them out. Thanks!!

I worked with Jane Jensen on the film Tromeo & Juliet in 1995, ( I was a PA/Truck Driver-she was the lead actress). Around 2000 Jane recorded with the all-girl band The Dolls. I think she's a solo act now. She has serious musical chops. She just needs for it all to come together. This song is a good example of her talent.
