For the 50th Anniversary of the Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds, the Flaming Lips covered one of my favorite Beach Boys songs. This cover of God Only Knows is awesome.

Danger Mouse Enlists Jack White, Norah Jones for New Album
We knew something was cooking between Danger Mouse and Jack White after the pair were spotted dining in LA last week, and now some answers have arrived… The Broken Bells/Gnarls Barkley member and producer du jour has teamed up with Italian composer Daniele Luppi for an album paying homage to 1960s spaghetti western soundtracks called Rome, reports The Guardian. (Not a huge surprise, given that Brian Burton’s biggest hit sampled the score of a 1968 film from the genre.) Guest musicians on the project, due out next year, include original session players from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and Once Upon a Time in the West, Conan’s BFF, and Norah Jones. Danger Mouse described how the White collaboration came about:
Danger Mouse + Jack White + Spagetti Western Soundtracks = yes.
Just another reason Danger Mouse remains my favorite producer of this century so far.

Randomly Generated Playlist via Twitter
I asked twitter to pick a number between 1 and 13,824. I then matched the number to my iTunes. Interesting how many numbers of 19 came in between 1-10.
I’d have to put Fool on the Hill, Bangers + Mash and On the 1 as my top three of this list.
