100 (%)

Welcome kiddies to the epic milestone that is UAFT's 100th post (Our first birthday is coming up on October 8th). The ever-hilarious Patton Oswalt has proclaimed that we should only be allowed to celebrate 20 birthdays though, so we'll keep the celebratory measures down to a absolute minimum. And seeing as I took enough Jager bombs for all of the greater Seattle area a few Saturdays ago (still recovering), no problem there. Northshore boys and their brand new hair cuts would have been put to shame...

Sonic Youth - 100% [ysi]
Patton Oswalt - You Are Allowed 20 Birthday Parties [ysi]

Since most my attempts at individuality end up being cliche anyway, I'm going for simplicity here at one HUNDRED. Here's some stuff I love right now and hopefully forever. Oh, and in true Lydia style they are in mixtape form.

The "I'm From Seattle & Therefore Slightly Undercover Emo" Songs
Fleet Foxes - Tiger Mountain Peasant Song [ysi]
TV on the Radio - Stork & Owl
Omg Omg. This might top Battles 2007 and Animal Collective's Strawberry Jam. TV on the Radio is going to SAVE this year in music. Translated into Harry Potter terms it's like the sixth AMAZING book saving the seventh from ruining the series. I think we can all agree that stupid epilogue just didn't cut it.
Chairlift - Bruises[ysi]

The "I'm a Girl Damaged Beyond Repair, But Guys Can't Help But Love Me" Songs
Girls Aloud - Rehab (Amy Wino Cover)[ysi]
Not sure about the second half of the statement being true on this one; too much crack and all
Fiona Apple - Paper Bag [ysi]
Britney Spears - Piece of Me (Tidus Remix)[ysi]

The "Lydia Had a Childhood Once" Songs
Sam Cooke - You Send Me [ysi]
Carla Thomas - B-A-B-Y [ysi]
The Cure - Friday, I'm in Love [ysi]


The "Just Cause Every A-Team Needs a Wild Card" Songs
M.I.A. - Big Branch [ysi]
The Magnetic Fields - Absolutely Cuckoo
Iron & Wine - Passing Afternoon
[ysi]

Peace, Love, and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia References Buried in My Celebratory Posts (If you didn't pick up on it then you are doing too many productive things with your life),
