Is...that Dwight Schrute??? Nope, it's Andy Partridge of XTC, inviting you to a new episode of Music Is My Radar!! We're looking at #1's from the 2nd quarter of 2011, where XTC and Lou Reed are featured twice. I'll get through 2011 and perhaps revamp the podcast format, hopefully not after 3 months this time out. Enjoy!

La la, la la la! Music Is My Radar has a song in its heart as it checks in on 2011! #1's of Quarter 1 of 2011 in this episode, including some British '90s selections, a total soundalike of 2-3 songs at once, and rediscovering my love for They Might Be Giants. Enjoy! Song list: "Wolf Like Me" by TV On The Radio, "For Tomorrow" by Blur, "Good as Gold" by the Beautiful South, "Hey Mr. DJ, I Thought You Said We Had a Deal" by They Might Be Giants, "Got my Mind Set On You" by James Ray, "Punky Reggae Party" by Bob Marley, and "I Couldn't Say No" by Carlene Carter and Robert Ellis Orrall.

We're wrapping up 2010 with a veritable grab bag of #1 songs! From '70s staples to 2000's UK rock to one of the biggest current hits of 2010, you won't know what you'll get next. Stick your hand on the bag! ...in a non-sexual way... Song list: "Move Your Feet" by Junior Senior, "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by the Flying Pickets, "Fuck You!" By Cee-Lo Green, "Suavecito" by Malo, "You Just Haven't Earned it Yet, Baby" by the Smiths, "Skeleton Boy" by the Friendly Fires, "Oh My God" by the KAISER Chiefs, and "Strawberry Letter #23" by Brothers Johnson

Finally back at it with a new episode!! We head into Quarter 3 of 2010. I belatedly get on the bandwagon of one of the most critically acclaimed artists of the 2000's, look across the pond for some UK dad rock(?) and shout out a local band gone national. Enjoy!!

Song list: "Rebellion (Lies)" by Arcade Fire, "Every Subway Car" by Barenaked Ladies, "Ask" by the Smiths, "Love's In Need Of Love Today"/"Have a Talk With God" by Stevie Wonder, "Ruby" by Kaiser Chiefs, and "You Were Right" by Built to Spill.

Ahoy, new episode! #1 songs on my chart in Quarter 2 of 2010. Some more not too noteworthy songs, and a few attempts to go out of my depth in talking about certain genres. But don't worry, alles wunderbar!!! Enjoy! Song list: "Can't Go Back" by Fleetwood Mac, "Talk" by Coldplay, "Computer Love" by Kraftwerk, "Roots, Rock, Reggae" by Bob Marley and the Wailers, "I've Seen All Good People" by Yes, "Burning Bridges" by Status Quo, " Where I Stand" by the Maisonettes, and "The First Picture Of You" by the Lotus Eaters

Oh no! There goes Tokyo! New episode, everyone!! New decade, new batch of #1's, Quarter 1 of 2010. I end up spending equal time on the #2's this time around, since some of the #1's....were not noteworthy. But any episode with Talking Heads, the best Peter Gabriel song, and Neil Young can't be that bad. Enjoy!!

In which Morrissey might get laid, as well as an artist replacing themselves at #1. Enjoy!
