At the inception of the bindle, in my constant self-sabotaging quest to make everything I art more difficult, I decided on a strict one song per artist policy. More often than not, that left me with tough decisions. 100+ artists later, I had some b-sides. So I started leaving them here, the odd ones out, the poor children who, for whatever reasons of whim or capricious whimsy, weren’t chosen on their day. They didn’t know it, but I loved them just the same.
