"I Can't Remember" by The Thorns

The Thorns were a short-lived supergroup combining the talents of 90s popsters Matthew Sweet, Shawn Mullins, and Pete Droge. They released a single self-titled record in 2003 that honors the harmonies of bands like Crosby, Stills and Nash and The Eagles.

While it didn't chart, many might remember their terrific cover of "Blue," originally done by The Jayhawks. "I Can't Remember" is another great cut from this easy-going record that somehow got buried upon his release. It's a shame the collaboration didn't last, as their harmonies are incredible.

"Going Whichever Way The Wind Blows" by Pete Droge

What a beautiful acoustic song from singer/songwriter Pete Droge. This wonderful little tune comes from his 2006 album, "Under The Waves". Droge has flown under the radar since his most recognizable hit, "If You Don't Love Me (I'll Kill Myself)", surfaced in 1995. That tune was featured on the soundtrack to Dumb and Dumber and probably was a blessing and a curse for Droge. It launched him into the spotlight, but with a novelty tune that really didn't represent the depth of his songwriting in general.
