He quickly offers up "Favorite Girl" by singer/songwriter Joseph Arthur, from the CD Redemption's Son. This is Arthur's third release.
A second choice is "Talk to Me, Dance with Me," by The Hot Hot Heat, from Make Up The Breakdown -- the second album by the rock group from Victoria, B.C.
Levin's final pick is from comic David Cross's live recording Shut Up You F**king Baby. Cross is formerly of the HBO program Mr. Show.
