What You Are
The Orion Songbook 2009 via Quite Scientific Records
a note about this track

The Orion Songbook (pronounced "OR-ee-un") involves a dense and interconnected set of images, locales, and ideas. "Orion Town" has been given vague definitions in interviews, but seems to represent the entire Metro Detroit area as a sprawling grid of many towns with blurred or overlapping boundaries. The name refers to the area around Orion Township, Michigan, which Milia considers to be the point where this grid dissolves back into a more natural landscape.

Frank Black

Where Is My Mind
Frank Black Francis 2004 via spinART records
a note about this track

The song was written by frontman Francis Black while he attended the University of Massachusetts Amherst, inspired by his experiences scuba diving in the Caribbean. He later said he had "this very small fish trying to chase me. I don't know why - I don't know too much about fish behavior."

Rainy Day Women #12 & 35
MTV Unplugged 1995 via Sony
a note about this track

Dylan wrote this ballad on Thanksgiving Day 1965 while touring in Kansas City. It was allegedly inspired by New York socialite Edie Sedgwick, who frequented Andy Warhol's Factory at around the same time Dylan was introduced to Warhol and had a tendency to catch the attention of musicians (The Velvet Underground's Lou Reed wrote "Femme Fatale" about Sedgwick at about the same time, released on 1967's The Velvet Underground & Nico).

a note about this track
