Don't bother to double-check your calendar, it's not June 6. No, the D here is a reference to the Roman Numeral D which equals 500. What you are reading is the 500th Blogger Post here at Ear to the Ground. (Note: We began as an upstart blog on the now (or soon) to be defunct Posterous site). In transferred to Blogger sometime around the beginning of 2012. Full disclosure, we did transfer a handful of our Posterous posts over, and those are included in the 500, but we still think this is a remarkable achievement.
As we approached 500, we considered a self-indulgent retrospective post looking back on our finest moments with perhaps some blooper reels thrown in for good measure, but none of that stuff seemed to fit what we try to be all about.

Let me tell you about it."
Today's list of songs comes up after the jump:
