Flyball’s Lament (the cover one) is a cover of The Great Big Mulp’s “Flyball’s Lament” (previously). This is a minimal and folkish cover, with frequent guest ORthey singing and playing a guitar or two – one’s his resonator guitar (previously), which is bluegrass-ish.

bond is atmospheric instrumental music – it’s good background music, with a slow build, but not too intrusive.

You Haven’t Done Nothin’ (Plump Mix) is a tighter remix of the politically aware 1974 Stevie Wonder original. So funky.
I’m experimenting with podcast tags a bit. Let me know what you think!
Thorns on the Heartstrings by Vicarious

Thorns on the Heartstrings is a slightly dark electronica song, brooding, slow-paced, & pulsing in an industrial way; over midway through, it turns in an acid techno direction – which is to say, it reminds me of that song from “Blade,” in a good way.

‘Til We’re Dead by inoculatedcities

‘Til We’re Dead is a lovely indie pop song, with harmonizing backup vocals, a Hammond organ, and a celesta. And then some odd lyrics, including “just to keep our brains inside our heads,” which lyrics – along with the general melody – got stuck in my head, as earworms do.
This is song #300 here!

Take On Me (a cappella cover) is not faithful to the original, but it’s hilarious & really entertaining.
I’ll call those off-kilter covers.

All The Things… (…I’ve Stuck up my Arse, Ode to an A&E Nurse) (the full title) is a drum’n’bass song, with a leisurely acoustic guitar, and drums & synths that roll along with speed. nthdegx has appeared on the podcast before.
The title might refer to a thread or two that discuss foreign bodies inserted into various bodily openings, via hospital reports, with the “explanations” of “I don’t know how it got up there, honest!”
Edit, 2012-03-15 – Oops! I’ve been a little sick this week, & I forgot to post the mp3 to the blog for this song & today’s. It’s fixed now!
