As we get closer to the one year anniversary of Neiles Life...I was thinking of different things that I could do for your enjoyment...So I`ve decided to share with you what I think are 125 albums that should be in your collection...So as for now there will be no more Songs Of The Day just some of my favourite songs from some of my favourite albums...enjoy..CN THE INBREDS - Kombinator Aug 22, 1995 Atlantic Kombinator starts with a typically Canadian approach to mellow, melodic, mid-tempo pop. This album reminds me of Grade 10 and is probably my favourite album by them. The Inbreds - Any Sense Of Time The Inbreds - Amelia Earhart The Inbreds - Don`t Try So Hard The Inbreds - You Will Know The Inbreds - Kombinator JAMES TAYLOR - Greastest Hits Nov 1976 Warner Bros. This album reminds me of trips to N.Y. My parents used to play it all the time on the way to Grandma`s house. Everytime I hear this album it reminds me of the highway in the U.S.A. James Taylor - Sweet Baby James James Taylor - Fire and Rain James Taylor - Carolina In My Mind James Taylor - Country Road SAVES THE DAY - In Reverie Sep 16, 2003 DreamWorks This is the first album I ever herd from STD. I herd it first in a Music World..Picked it up..saw that it was Produced by Rob Schnapf and grabbed it. Saves The Day - In Reverie Saves The Day - Tommorrow Too Late Saves The Day - In My Waking Life Saves The Day - Anywhere With You ROONEY - Self Titled May 27, 2003 Geffen/Interscope I liked but not loved Rooney when I first herd em...It wasn`t till The O.C. had them on, that I appreaciated this album more. Rooney - Popstars Rooney - I'm Shakin Rooney - Daisy Duke Rooney - Stay Away THE STREETS - Original Pirate Material Oct 22, 2002 Atlantic The best album from Mike Skinner, This album always brings me back to the first few yrs I moved out on my own.

LOCAL RABBITS - You Can`t Touch This 1996 Murderecords If you do anything please download some tracks off this album..One of the most interesting albums in my collection. An EP filled with wacky low-fi, indie rock tracks...Jay Furguson from Sloan did all the recording from this album...and he did a fine job.. Local Rabbits -Pop`s & Company Local Rabbits -Sally Ann (Style Denial) Local Rabbits -61 Days Local Rabbits -(She Said) Your Such A Stupid Idiot SOUNDGARDEN - Superunknown Mar 8, 1994 A&M A CD that contains such hits like Spoonman, Black Hole Sun and my personal fave My Wave (I love the drums in the song) and yes I feel like I`m repeating myself when I say that this disk reminds me of High School..and it should be in your collection..(if it isn`t already) Soundgarden -My Wave Soundgarden -Black Hole Sun Soundgarden -Spoonman Soundgarden -Fresh Tendrils BILLY TALENT - S/T Sep 16, 2003 Atlantic I get mad about once every Solar Eclipse (so not very often)..but when I do I like to put on this album..its a good "I hate the world" album...I think its cause Benjamin Kowalewicz's yowl and screeching makes me wanna yell at the top of my lungs.. Billy Talent -Line & Sinker Billy Talent -Try Honesty Billy Talent -This Is How It Goes RADIOBLASTER - Listen Closer 1997 Squirtgun Sorry about the shitty album picture, but its the only one I can find..I used to listen to these guys all the freakin time on the bus to summer school..I don`t think I`ve taken the bus since. Whenever I listen to this CD it reminds me of the Bus and I`m glad it was there to get me threw those tough times (I hated taking the bus) Radioblaster -Heat Score Radioblaster -Last Call Home Radioblaster -A For Effort DURAN DURAN - Greatest November 3, 1998 Capitol Ok so its not really a full album...its a greatest hits..But its the only Duran Duran CD in the Neiles collection..I used to have the wedding album until my CD`s got stolen out of my car yrs ago..but this album has all my favourite tracks from that CD anyway Duran Duran -The Reflex Duran Duran -Rio Duran Duran -Girls On Film

N.E.R.D. - In Search Of... Mar 12, 2002 Virgin One of the best Hip-Hop albums that nobody herd...Its my favourite for sure..I love the use of Live Drums and how a majority of the album was recorded using live instruments..I first got into N.E.R.D. after watching the move XXX with Vin Diesel..cause Truth Or Dare was on the soundtrack... N.E.R.D. -Run To The Sun N.E.R.D. - Bobby James N.E.R.D. -Things Are Getting Better N.E.R.D. -Rock Star SUPERFRIENDZ - Mock Up, Scale Down 1995 Murderecords Another act introduced to me by Sloan...Once nominated for a juno, Mock Up Scale Down should be in everyone`s collection...I remember I used to love the video`s for 10lbs and Karate Man..you can tell they were made with no $ but were hilarious...often just showing shots of the band being goofs..Ohh and incase you didn`t know Chris Murphy used to play drums for em... The Superfriendz -Karate Man The Superfriendz -10 Lbs The Superfriendz -Dear Old Ireland The Superfriendz -Better Call The Superfriendz -Restricted ELLIOTT SMITH - S/T Jul 21, 1995 Kill Rock Stars I never bought this album...I always just had Mp3`s from it...Until me and Patricia went to NY for our 1st anniversay...and I finally bought it...we listened to it a lot on the trip and now whenever I hear it it reminds me of NY City...Also hilarious to see Elliott with blonde hair on the back picture.. Elliott Smith -Satellite Elliott Smith -Christian Brothers Elliott Smith -The White Lady Loves You More Elliott Smith -Southern Belle NADA SURF - Let Go Oct 15, 2002 Barsuk Nada Surf had a big hit with the song "Popular" in the 90`s...I personally had labeled them as a one hit wonder...then I decided to give Let Go a try..I take it back..they are absolutly not a one hit wonder and this album proves it.. Nada Surf -Happy Kid Nada Surf -Blizzard Of 77 Nada Surf -Hi-Speed Soul CHAD VANGAALEN - Infiniheart Aug 23, 2005 Subpop Chad is much more than a brilliant songwrighter...He`s also a good artist as well...I read in an interview somewhere that he wanted to draw first and sing second...Most of this album was recorded in his apt....with him playing a majority of the instruments.. Chad VanGaalen -Clinicly Dead Chad VanGaalen -Blood Machine Chad VanGaalen -Kill Me In My Sleep Chad VanGaalen -Traffic
