Bowling for Soup: 1985
John Mayer: Daughters
Howie Day: Collide
Five for Fighting: Devil in the Wishing Well
Ingram Hill: Will I Ever Make It Home (I think this would make a nice SGA vid)
On a related topic... I usually really like Sarah MacLachlan's music, sometimes despite myself. But I always change the station when World on Fire comes on. It's just so whiney.
And on the CD side...
Megan Slankard Band: Freaky Little Story
Dido: Life for Rent
Switchfoot: Beautiful Letdown
