Track list:
1. Do the Hustle
Comments: whoops. This isn't the right song. Oh well, we'll play the right one later. Ha.
2. The Dan Band - Live - Tyrone
Comments: This is my favourite song on this CD, although Jonelle apparently doesn't like it so much. We're so different, which is, I think, why we're so complimentary. Oh, but it's true.
3.The Buttless Chaps - where night holds light - blanket of pain
Comments: worth it for the album art alone. So beautiful. We do love you, Buttless Chaps. Also, this song is very good. It's a bit Morrissey-ish, but with a girl in it. That's always a plus. Ooh, and the mariachi accents.
4. Young and Sexy - panic when you find it - without your love
Comments: I like the idea behind this band name. I'm going to start a band called "slim and attractive", because I think false advertising is always a good idea. Or how about "nobel prize winner and fabulously wealthy". Oh, wait, you'd like to know if the song is good? I like it. How's that?
5. Carsick - carsick - old yellow
Comments: hmm, boring.
6. The Hues Corporation - rock the boat
Comments: this is your favourite song of all time.

olympic-style excellence
1. The Diableros - you can't break the strings in our olympic hearts - Olympic Island
Comments: This is the song where they got the title of the album. I know that much. They kind of sound like the Walkmen, but since I love the Walkmen, I like this song too. Jonelle says 'not bad', which is a resounding mark of approval.
2. Existential Angst Party - existential angst party - I'm too romantic
Comments: lives up to its billing. The violins are a nice touch.
3. Beverly Killbillies - Dear Johnny (Cash tribute) - Wanted Man
Comments: oh no, not good.
4. Silent Film Soundtrack - diplomats and confidants - lights out (murder)
Comments: hm, this comes highly recommended. It's not bad. There aren't many chords in it, but sometimes too many chords just confuse things. It makes me a little bit nervous, what with the driving beat.
5. Boycrusher - sometimes a man... - lucky lady
Comments: our last song. We haven't heard it yet, but it's truly a masterpiece.
