Pressure, Robyn! The good news is you'll be living in Amsterdam and with your husband, so we'll avoid anything that might be heard as wistful. But...what?
Robyn / June 19, 2010
Thanks Jeremy :) *sentimental tears* I'll be back someday!
Robyn / June 19, 2010
Maybe "Portland, OR" by Loretta Lynn / Jack White?
Jeremy Petersen / June 19, 2010
My pleasure, best of luck in your new surroundings!
Jeremy Petersen / June 19, 2010
Yeah! I was thinking the same thing...
Robyn / June 19, 2010
Oh wow! *verges on tears* Thanks :)

Hi Jeremy, Do you post your playlist as you go along in the show somewhere? I often like songs and forget what's what by the time you go over them. Thanks, Sarah

Great, moving new video for the Gil-Scott Heron song played tonight-- "I'm New Here." You can watch on the front page of his site here: http://gilscottheron.net/

After seven years in Portland, I'm moving in a week to Amsterdam to be with my husband. I'm getting all sentimental and stuff. Can you play me something to wish me off well?

Tonight's featured in-studio guest Patrick Watson won the Polaris Prize in 2007, and against some pretty stiff competition. The full summary of the 2007 prize can be found here: http://www.polarismusicprize.ca/2007/
