Filed under: 9:30 Coffee Break

This morning we aired "Oh Yoko!" by John Lennon and suddenly a 9:30 Coffee Break theme occured to us: let's do a set of songs with titles that contain exclamation points. (Not band names, but song titles). We like to keep things simple for a Mondays ...

Songs played:
The Hold Steady "Chips Ahoy!"
The Beatles "Oh! Darling"
Bow Wow Wow "C30 C60 C90, Go!"
Jenny Lewis and The Watson Twins "Rise Up With Fists!!"
Sufjan Stevens "Decatur, or, Round of Applause for Your Stepmother!"
The Decemberists "O Valencia"
