"I cannot even do one sit-up because sit-ups are so bourgeoisie."

Stephen Malkmus, "Tigers" and "No One"

Here are acoustic versions of two songs from the new Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks album Mirror Traffic that's due later this month. I can't really say that I'm crazy about either of these yet, but I have to love a line like "I cannot even do one sit-up because sit-ups are so bourgeoisie."

"Your Own Sweet Way"

The Notting Hillbillies, "Your Own Sweet Way"

There are a bunch of live versions with video of this on YouTube that would give you something to look at, but I think I prefer the studio version. Mark Knopfler is the man.
