#xpn countdown great to see my 22 yo daughter hear her #1 pick today! Moon River by Frank Ocean. Thanks @wxpnfm.bsky.social

@wxpnfm.bsky.social trying to recall a song from XPN, likely 1990s, title might be Red. Male singer songwriter. I can’t come up with enough to google, Red is too ubiquitous. Feels like the Matt Nathenson Duncan Shiek era. Red is a girl.

@kristenkurtis.bsky.social top choice with Frightened Rabbit, Get Out is unheralded, a true gem! @wxpnfm.bsky.social

@wxpnfm.bsky.social always great to hear Frightened Rabbit.

This was great program in Philly that I participated wherein volunteers helped with adults who were weak readers or lacked literacy more broadly. I’ve had this magnet for 30 years! #literacy #philly #adulteducation

@amytan.bsky.social so enjoying the Christmas present of your chronicles. I am a very amateur birder in PA. I watch and listen, too. Your journal entry style makes a wonderful read, informative and lovely.

Merry Christmas 🎄🎁!!

#xpntnb @djrobertdrake.bsky.social so happy to be tuned in! Been listening as long as I’ve collected our Christmas tree cut offs! Happy Holidays everyone.

#wxpn songs of grievances. @wxpnfm.bsky.social how about Suedehead from Morrissey/Smiths. Why do you come here when you know it makes things hard for me? So Moz!

Let’s go! #chelseafc #phillyblues

#xpncountdown a song fueled sports anthem that may be more associated with European soccer. Big hit in early 2000s. Thought it might surface. But did not. youtu.be/2dAi62Rx-zk?...

#xpncountdown Thank You! What an awesome time this week has been. My whole family huddling for top 10 and texting relentlessly all week! 😍

#wxpncountdown. Weird. I listened to Modern Leper by Frightened Rabbit in the mid 700’s but it doesn’t show up in the filter.

#xpncountdown. I love the palpable grief in Song for Zula

#xpncountdown I realize I have 3 Scottish bands all starting with F to be more random. Frightened Rabbit, Franz Ferdinand and Fratelli’s

#xpncountdown finally another on the list Spoon Underdog.

#xpncountdown lots o’ Radiohead, Wilco, Coldplay, Amy Winehouse coming with a few surprises I’m sure!

#xpncountdown lost cause easily my favorite Beck song and an absolute 11

#xpncountdown Mumford into Lizzo is hard for me, prefer neither but am accepting

#xpncountdown saw Snow Patrol at the Tower sever pre Covid years ago at daughters behest and they can really play

#xpncountdown thought Snow Patrol’s Chasing Cars would be higher

#xpncountdown I really enjoy Fontaines DC but recency bias is helping out a bit I think.

#xpncountdown I think my #8 is toast 8. Tree by the River. Iron and Wine

#xpncountdown I sometimes feel like Spoon should be “bigger”, whatever that means.

#xpncountdown @kallao.bsky.social can’t call this Texas Hold em a banger, really?!

#xpncountdown Fallout Boy and The Darkness are admitted blind spots for me.

#xpncountdown does Bruce cover Mr Brightside by chance? Trying to think top 10 appearance

#xpncountdown “there’s ten or twenty dollars but there ain’t no lesser”. The Felice Bros are very xpn to me.

#xpncountdown I am a listener, like all of the time and I swear I never heard that Mountain Goats song before and I’m not certain I’ve even ever heard of the Darkness. Nowhere else in the countdown have I been shutout like that. Kinda embarrassing

#xpncountdown Wilco, even if adding Spiders (kidsmoke) at 10:46 with One Sunday Morning 12:04 still falls short of Sufian, I think!

#xpncountdown same as I said earlier. Lo Moon draws me in.

#xpncountdown this RHCP really an 11 for me, probably my fave of their tracks.

#xpncountdown so fun listening “with” 21 yo in college. She checks in and out. Tells me Frank Ocean Nights is her fave song ever….the things you learn during a @wxpnfm.bsky.social countdown!

#xpncountdown first if quite a few more u suspect for Tyler.

#xpncountdown. MJ Lenderman is my fave of 2024 but too much recency bias for me to include!

#xpncountdown Lo Moon has really grown on me, not “typical” of what I might consider but lyrically personal and a very free flowing feel.

#xpncountdown yesterday caught a string of Josh Ritter, today Avetts. Who is the next mini streak? @wxpnfm.bsky.social

#havertown #nightsky Look at the sky over Havertown looking West.

@wxpnfm.bsky.social #xpncountdown. Damien Rice Cannonball and Modern Leper Frightened Rabbit both off my list.

#xpncountdown @wxpn yay! Modern Leper by frightened rabbit is my #1 and I was worried it wouldn’t make the list !

#XPNLotl. @djrobertdrake.bsky.social great night of tunes. Friday nights are better with LOTL

@wxpnfm.bsky.social #XPNcountdown My first one fell. Cannonball. Damien Rice.

#Swarthmore Ship Bottom Brewery. Kick off holidays! #buylocal

Turkey Day Football. #hhs Haverford Senior High vs Upper Darby!

inisnuatheatre.org/show/drip This is a wonderful one person play staged on the second floor at www.fergies.com This play exposes all of the uncertainty and awkward feelings of youth! Really worth checking out Drip and Inis Nua. Drip also served a meat/veggie pie from Stargazy!
