five songs Vic told me about:

1. Josh Rouse - Winter in the Hamptons
2. David Byrne / Thievery Corporation - The Heart's a Lonely Hunter
3. Dresden Dolls - Girl Anachronism
4. Brendan Benson - Spit it Out
5. Louis XIV - Finding Out True Love is Blind

Maybe she will describe them in the comments section? Otherwise I'll come back to this. They're all recommended by her. And, now I've heard them, by me.
