Blurred Line

Cavan Radio Playlist: December 5, 2005

1. David Mead - World of a King: A fun, poppy tune to start things off.

2. The New Pornographers - Mass Romantic: The title track from the album that inspired my latest work.

3. The Hiss - Brass Tacks: Heabanging garage rock.

4. Hawksley Workman - Autumn's Here: A slow, reflective tune with a great horn section near the end.

5. Better Than Ezra - Sincerely, Me: BTE was cool back in the post-grunge days of the mid-90s. Since then, their material has been fairly eclectic. Here, they take on pop-punk and do a fantastic job of it.

6. Fountains of Wayne - Hey Julie: An amazingly fun and upbeat pop tune from the guys who sang about Stacy's Mom.

7. Jeremy Fisher - Singing on the Sidewalk: Another fun, laid-back pop song from a guy who toured across Canada on his bike.

8. Louis XIV - Hey Teacher: Equal parts garage and glam rock.

9. Matthew Good - Generation X-Wing (Acoustic Version): This one may be Good's best ballad, which is no small praise.

10. The New Pornographers - The Jessica Numbers: I know, I already did one of their songs, but I've been listening to a lot of this band.

My experiment to discover whether 25,000 hits off BlogExplosion will have any effect on long-term readership, however ill-advised it may be, is about to begin. If you didn't read the original post, check it out here. Here's how I'll be monitoring things: On a weekly basis, I'll be logging changes in my comment volume, the number of Google links, the number of Technorati links and the amount of fan/hate mail I get. Since, as we all know, BE will bring in a plethora of hits, I don't that reporting my hit levels will have any meaning. Instead, every 2500 visitors, I'll be hitting the 'pause' button on the BE campaign (yes, there is one) for a week. During this time, no hits will come from BE. So, over the course of those weeks, I'll be comparing my hits to pre-experiment levels. With any luck, I'll be able to post all of this info in a nicely formatted way that everyone can follow, but I make no promises. So, here goes...
