Breaks me every time.
Have you heard their daytrotter sessions?
No, should I?

We haven't had a chance to get their first album yet but we will asap. I might end up being more into this one but only because I heard it first and I like the slightly darker electro influences.

Get the first album and listen to it. Do it soon. It doesn't matter which one you like more, they're both beautiful and very different.

Then you need to download my Awesome Mynabirds mix, which is made up of album songs performed for Daytrotter and then some studio b-sides.

On that mix right now I have the album version of Mightier Than The Sword but that's because I wanted to use the song and didn't have a good live recording. I'm looking at some of the radio station performances they did with that song to try and find a good one I can actually download. That mix isn't really complete until it has the live version of MTTS.

I will do all of this.

That song is pretty close to my :heartbeat: for a lot of reasons right now.

They did a lot of radio station performances for Generals. So I'm looking around at their streams to find the best version and then find a way to rip the stream. I wish they just did the fucking song for Daytrotter it would be so much easier.

What are the others? I'll tell you whether or not you're wrong and you need to listen again.
The usual stuff: Arcade Fire, QOTSA, Soundgarden, NIN, Wilco... But these aren't particular to RM like this one seems to be.

The Daytrotter version of Give It Time might be my favorite thing they've ever done.

Yeah, and random instrumentation.

This is a better live version of MTTS that showcases her:

You should really listen to the first album before you dive too deep into the live versions of those songs.

Do you need me to upload it for you because I can do that?
