Matt and Andrew's CD a Day project

Two CD singles today. The first I ordered from a place in Massachusetts, the second I found for $1 at Hastings. The "Bad Day" single came out a couple of months ago in Europe and comes with two covers ("Favorite Writer" by Magnapop and "Out in the Country" by Three Dog Night) and a weird, ambient instrumental as b-sides. The second is an old U.S. single from 1996 and comes with a surf instrumental. Completely inessential, but good listening for a hardcore REM fan.
In homage to Matt, I'll try to pick something depressing to listen to tomorrow.
