Smosh: "I Would Go" (2006)

Hard to believe these two girls were somewhere around 11 years old when they wrote and recorded this song. And the album it's from, Free to Stay, is pretty good, too -- out of 12 songs, I kept 7 on my iPod (not a bad ratio).

Rosebuds: "Wishes for Kisses" (2003)

All right, we're halfway through this week's topic of Duos. Here's another married couple who make awesome music together, proving that true love is absolutely awesome.

The Rosebuds Makeout is an amazing debut record, not one piece of filler in there (seriously). I couldn't decide which song to post here today, so I shot a prayer up to my higher power and asked for a little guidance, but all I got was a busy signal. So I went outside and asked the CPA up the street which song I should I post. He called me a faggot, probably because I was wearing my T-shirt that has a picture of a cemetery and says, "Class warfare: We've found new homes for the rich." So I went back to my apartment and was about to call an ex-girlfriend -- the one who got away -- but the phone wasn't working; that'll happen when ya don't pay the bill. Then I said, "I know what Rosebuds song I'll post!"

Matt And Kim: "Yea Yeah" (2006)

Another couple, though I don't think these kids are married yet (still boyfriend, girlfriend). They only have this short LP out. Nice music to blare when ya feeling like doing cartwheels down the block or a headstand on the stoop.

Mates Of State: "Beautiful Dreamer" (2005)

This week I'm gonna feature duos. Let's kick it off with that fantabulous married couple Mates Of State. Bring It Back, I think, is their strongest album. I've probably listened to this song at least 200 times and it still sends chills up and down my ears. Lovely. . . .
