Help the Aged!

My computer at work had to be reimaged, and this means I lost all my mp3s. Not that I would ever use a work connection for something like downloading music, because that would be wrong, but people this is devestation on par with, like, the death of an iPod or something. All those songs that [livejournal.com profile] lalejandra (Dan Bern!) and [livejournal.com profile] anniesj (The 88's! The OC! Ben Folds!) and [livejournal.com profile] oxoniensis (Gomez!) made available for the music-less while at work are gone. I have no more Billy covering Britney on Sharon. This is devestating for me. I need help.

I need JayZRyanAdamsJeffBuckleyJetTheStrokesRollingStonesCountingCrows TheVerveTheCharlatansZero7TheiveryCorporationPulpTheChemicalBrothersNasTalibKweliTheClashTheDandyWarholsSondreLercheFionaAppleBlurOasisMattNathansonStarsailorMorcheebaPortisheadBeastieBoysTribeCalledQuest and everybody else, too.

I have nothing left now.

If you can point me in a good direction, or are willing to stick up some mp3 to help rectify the lack of music in my work-existence I would sacrifice virgins and chickens For you appreciate it greatly.

Note: Alas, no, I cannot put Limewire/Kazaa/SoulSearcher on my system as The Man doesn't quite approve. Damn The Man!

Let me have your email addy and I'll put up Gomez, Ryan Adams, The Strokes, Counting Crows, Verve, Dandy Warhols and Starsailor to start with, and send you a super sekrit link.

Would you like whole batches of one artist, then another whole batch, or just a miscellaneous selection of all sorts.

And was it the OC soundtrack you were after, because I think I've got mp3's of that.

don't know if this is anything you'd be interested in...

http://www.netlooks.net/ (just click on The OC block at the top)

i can't listen to mp3 at work, but this thing works great for me and there are over 50 songs in it.

I have some Counting Crows, some Blur, and the Billy covering Britney. What's the best way to get them to you?

I so don't know you, but I think I saw you on someone's Friends list talking about Rachael Yamagata and Jonathan Rice (who both rock BTW, so thanks for reccing them) first, and now reading your post I just find your tale of woe is far too familiar to me, so I'd like to help out.
I have: Starsailor, Jeff Buckley, Jet, Sondre Lerche, Fiona Apple, and the O.C CD (and Ryan Adams, but he's been mentioned already).
Let me know and I'll upload them and send you a link.

Neil Gaiman has a link to download "March of the Sinister Ducks" on his blog.

http://www.neilgaiman.com/journal/2004_01_18_archive.asp

search for 'sinister' on the page, and just right-click on the link.

here's a link for eric idle's "FCC song" warning: lots of eff word, headphones advised.

http://radio.about.com/od/sternindecency/qt/blfccsong.htm

Barsuk Records offers downloads of their artists like Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter, Nada Surf, John Vanderslice, and your (not-so) faves DCFC.

http://www.barsuk.com/web.cgi

I assume you know about launch.com and radio365.

Good luck!

Lemme know what you haven't gotten yet and I'll throw it up for you on my webserver tonight.

I have a herd of 80s and 90s stuff if that interests you.

I'd have to email it to you though.

Why must everyone pick on the virgins? Sacrifice *hoochies* and chickens!
(sorry, just always wanted to say that)
Will have to consult with my brother, the local King of MP3s^^--he might have something on your list? Or of interest? Will ask! Might have to email you about some of the unfamiliar names?

I can always send you a burnt CD, if you want to put up an update later as to what you couldn't find. :)

losing music is like losing a limb.
