Boards of Canada, "Roygbiv"

I'd be super psyched if they chose anything from Leaves Turn Inside You, really. Unfortunately, a good chunk of my favourites from that album are ones that would be challenging as covers ("We Invent You", "Terminus", "Below the Salt").

No one would ever be able to do it justice, but if they for whatever reason chose "Marquee Moon", that would be amazing.

Quotes and stuff (Does this segment need banjo music? I’d say no, but it probably does):

Aaah! My stomach lining!

I work in a grocery store, and just on Monday the music was way better than it was when I started a few months ago. To name a few songs they played that day: Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground", Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" (made me so happy to hear the whole thing uninterrupted), Talking Heads' "Psycho Killer" and "Once…

This Christmas, we gave you our hearts
But the very next day, you gave it away
Next year, to save us from tears
Don't kill anyone so special…

Started reading Zack Morrison's webcomic Paranatural. It's really good, very literate (I feel like a lot of the vocabulary the characters use is not stuff 7th graders would regularly use), and seriously quotable.
Sample quotes: "Beating on nerds is my business. It is my main source of income."

As a music nerd, I'm disappointed that the only things in the music section we can vote on are best album and most anticipated 2017 album—and that's it. I mean, I know no one cares about the music section of the AV Club, but still…would it kill you guys to add overrated/underrated album (or "AV Club was wrong about…")?

'In the Aeroplane Over the Sea", "This Love is Fucking Right!" and "Never Stops" (a favourite off of Microcastle) are all awesome tracks.
