The other day I made a playlist that I entitled "Nerdelation," which was basically a collection of my nerdiest songs--either songs nerds would enjoy or songs that just seem fundamentally nerdy to me. I don't know. I am not explaining this very well, but I totally dug it, so now I want to share it.

Heh. I know this was probably fun for only me, but I thought I'd throw it out there to the world.
Oh! Just for fun, let's see what Genius gives me for songs based upon "Hey Sandy":

14. Summerbaby - Polaris
15. When I Grow Up - Garbage
16. Singing in My Sleep - Semisonic

21. Honestly - Zwan
22. If She Wants Me - Belle & Sebastian
23. Alright - Supergrass

Well. This actually isn't a bad playlist, but it's not nerdy enough. And I totally should have put Weezer on my playlist, but I would have picked "In the Garage," which is quite possibly the nerdiest of all their nerdy songs. And Genius and I only had two songs in common besides "Hey Sandy," but we had a few artists in common. So. Not bad, Genius, not bad.
