“you got it (keep it outta my face)”

pretty sure I shoulda won the contest last month,

“Furr” – Blitzen Trapper

I win. Lacey will you get me a free lunch instead?

It’s just so dreamily romantic

Saddle Tramp from Dickless

It’s Tad, for chrissake’s!!

oh fruit bats. yes.

my favourite song by far is “over the pond” by the album leaf. it’s the best song for valentines day because it’s a quiet contemplative song you can sit back with a special person and just enjoy the moment.

Tyler

Take Care by Beach House – Teen Dream

Though I haven’t had a chance to check the lyrics so um, hoping it’s all lovey.

Andie East

AND most adorable video everrrrrrrr.

“Business Time” by FoC

When U Love Somebody – Fruitbats -from Mouthfuls

-I know, I know. But what better day to have a song that’s just fun, and lighthearted, although that’s coming from someone whose been pretty lucky.

Clark Gable – The Postal Service. Me and my lady still listen to this album and we’ve been together 5 years and it just reminds us of how good it is being together. It also opened our eyes to kozyndan. Fantastic stuff that reminds both of how good things can be.

…if you have to ask, you’ll never understand…

And we will make love,
We won’t have to fight,
We won’t have to speak,
And we won’t have to lie.

Let Me Lie To You

Iron & Wine’s cover of The Postal Service’s “Such Great Heights” — two sub-pop artists for the price of one.

Together We’ll Never

(Swallow My Pride was a close second.)

my husband and i got married to this song…

The Shocking Blue’s version is great too, but that’s not Sub Pop anyhow.

“Most Beautiful Girl (In the Room)” by Flight of the Conchords. Hands down.

i would say Blitzen Trapper as well but i don´t want to sound repetitive

Vetiver – Double

Furr by Blitzen Trapper is great as well, but i guess it’s already taken

The Postal Service

District sleeps alone tonight.

Give the prize to Ireland, we need it.

“Young Love Delivers” by Oxford Collapse. It was so sad when they broke up, like part of my hipster soul moved away and took all the cocaine.

Lovely.

by the spinanes

Pissed Jeans

Don’t judge…we all express love our own way.

by Soundgarden

So romantic, so indirect

LOVE BUZZ by NIRVANA

Can you feel my love buzz?

The Rose by Mudhoney from Sub Pop 200
Love Buzz by Nirvana

Predictable? Dated? Don’t care!

heart it races cover by dr. dog

MCD

For me I think it’s a toss up between Blitzen Trapper’s ‘Lady on the Water’ and Mark Lanegan’s gorgeous cover of ’I’ll Take Care of You’

Velocity Girl

Velocity Girl

To me, it represents the good will and warmth one might feel toward even a one night stand as a decent, worthy human being.

And I was hooked to subpop for the next couple of years. Then in the mid nineties I felt abonded and the love died. But I grew back, and we’re in our second love fase right now…

This one always makes my girlfriend nestle that little bit closer, even when she’s asleep.

by the very underrated and obscure Subpop band Nirvana.

Stay!!!

Well, I guess it depends on what you’re looking for on Valentine’s day…

band of horses – no one’s gonna love you

18 hours.
Portland, the album leaf.

fuuuuuuuuu i’m excited.

“Talk” a b-side to the “Sleep” 7". I know, I know, it was released on Super Electro. I bought it from YOU!!!!!!!!

Undoubtedly the perfect song to serenade a lady on VDay is…

Flight of the Conchord’s "The Most Beautiful Girl (In the Room)

Valentine’s Day shouldn’t be so serious! I would fall in love even more if my boyfriend sang me this song and compared me to a high class prostitute!

“Two Way Street” by Blood Circus!

Yes, I love Blood Circus and I don’t care what you think.

(“Swallow My Pride” by Green River came to mind first, but since Johnny already declared it to be “a close second,” I had to come up with something better…)

Pencils In The Wind – Flight of the Conchords.
So magical.. so meaningful.. the song of love..

I jest.

For you losers – Gone for Good by The Shins

For all others – I’m putting my money on a dark horse candidate – It’s You – DMM. Put this one in the playlist before Get Off and you’re virtually guaranteed the greatest sex in the history of the world. Or not. It’s difficult to tell when doing these thought experiments.

A single song doesn’t do Valentines Day justice. So I’m nominating the whole Afternoon Delight album, which is totally in the spirit.

And my Afternoon Delight will last well into the evening, if you get my drift.

Looking forward to the new album leaf LP. Best sub-pop song for valentines? Shed Your Love – The Helio Sequence.

Just like Dan told me: this songs about doin’ it.

Sweet and simple. “Oh when we met our bodies remembered that we were only animals”

Wolf Parade – This Heart’s On Fire

Damien Jurado – Ohio

Recent activity with Rein Sanction, (Mark Gentry, Brannon Gentry and Daren Bedford) include a new release on CD Baby/iTunes. If you were absorbed in the 90’s by Rein Sanctions gut-wrenching, guitar-driven music… more is out there and coming.
