I'm sorry for being late to the party, but here are my picks for your question:

6. The Replacements - "Swingin' Party"

7. The Kinks - "Fancy"

8. The Velvet Underground - "I'm Waiting for the Man"

BQ: Unrequited love, by far.

BQ2: Absolutely. Music is very helpful for when I need to process my emotions, or when I'm going through a bad day.

Hi Ryan, been looking forward to this. I didn't spend any time thinking about my answers or checking to see if they'd already been mentioned, just went with my first impressions.

Hey Ryan. I must say, I think this idea has proven to be even better now you've posted it than it was in your question seeking approval. This is something I will be looking forward to each week. Your choices are fantastic, by the way.
