=MR. HUGO'S PLAY LIST = = = You can watch the video of each song by clicking on song's name

**1) The New American Apathy by Mazarin (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)** sorry no video.

//The name Mazarin has been subject to legal dispute. Unfortunately, another group using the name, apparently used it first. Mazarin found itself in need of a new name as of January 2007.//

**[|2) Jenny Again by Tunng (London, England)]**

//Back in 2003, Mike Lindsay (founding member) had a studio in a Soho basement below a clothes shop. They had to go through the changing room to get down to the studio, then couldn't get back out while the shop was open in case they startled naked ladies on their way out.//


 * [|3) Lovers Who Uncover by The Little Ones (Los Angeles, California)]**

//“The Little Ones quickly realized that their only weapon against reality was their imagination. They embarked on a radical experiment: to see if they could convince themselves that everything was going to be all right.”//

**[|4) A Punk by Vampire Weekend (New York, NY)]**

//Vampire Weekend's name is derived from lead singer Ezra Koenig's amateur film of the same name. The members of the band met while attending Columbia University; they then self-produced their first album after graduation while concurrently working full-time jobs.//

// In 2004, Sleep Station released its arguably most successful album, After The War. Recorded using mostly instruments and equipment from the 1940's. After The War tells the story of a soldier fighting in World War II, while occasionally interspersing stories from other characters. The album features interludes of 1940's audio recordings of soldiers reciting poetry for their wives and girlfriends. //
 * [|5) Caroline, London 1940 by Sleep Station (Bergen County, New Jersey)]**

**[|6) Let’s Talk About Spaceship by Say Hi To your Mom (Seattle, Washington)]**

**[|7) Mr. E’s Beautiful Blues by Eels (California, USA)]**

//The single, "Mr. E's Beautiful Blues", was not intended to be on the album, (Daisies of the Galaxy) but the record company insisted on its inclusion. Therefore, it is not featured on the track listing but is instead listed as a "bonus track", separated from the rest of the album by 20 seconds of silence. E declared, "You can think of it as buying the album and getting a bonus track, or buying the single and getting a bonus album."//


 * [|8) I Was Born a Unicorn by The Unicorns (Montreal, Quebec)]**

//The Unicorns were an indie pop band from Montreal, Canada, formed in December 2000. In early February 2005 The Unicorns split. Some members are now part of the band Islands//


 * [|9) A.M. 180 by Grandaddy (Modesto, California)]**

//In 2002, "A.M. 180" was featured prominently in the British film// //28 Days Later. The song has since been used on the television advert for Colin Murray's radio show on BBC Radio 1. Perhaps more bizarrely, the tune was also used in a trailer for Clifford the Big Red Dog when undergoing a run on CBeebies on the BBC in the UK.//  **[|10) Mardy Bum by the Arctic Monkey (Sheffield, England) Live version]** //Their debut album// //Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, released in January 2006, became the fastest-selling debut album in British music history, surpassing Oasis'// //Definitely Maybe.
