Last night, on Tuesday Night on KRCL 90.9FM, the theme was love songs, makeout songs + breakup songs. I think it’s a pretty fine indie Valentine’s playlist, if I do say so myself.
Here’s the playlist from the show.
I hope your Valentine takes real good care of you, reader.

Of course, I’ve always been a sucker for pop melodies, banjos, upright basses, and F-bombs. Mumford and Sons’ debut domestic release, Sigh No More, is due out February 16.
Thanks to Ebay for sharing.

Here’s a listing of other 2009 Best Ofs from friends and/or reputable sources. In other words, people who know their shit much more than I do. Enjoy.
