Notes:

  • Old 97's: Amazon has a free download of "The New Kid" here, though it is mislabeled as "In The Satellite Rides A Star" for some reason.

Hi, the first mexican song is "La Adelita", thought, I don´t know exactly who recorded that exact version. This song was made during La Revolución (1910-21), when people was trying to depose from the presidential chair Porfirio Diaz, a dictator. La Adelita was composed for a woman named Adela, one of Pancho Villa´s lovers and had so much success that people started to call adelita to any woman who followed men to the warfield.

I could have sworn that the Postal Service Song played twice in the episode was "We Will Become Silhouettes".
