Started out with a funky set as my top song was a track guaranteed to make you move your feet called "Can't Control My Love". But imagine my surprise when I saw the video and that the song is done by 5 white guys from Australia. Speaking of videos check out the one by The Avalanches for the title track from their first album "Since I Left You" in the links below. The second set all came from the 5th anniversary release from February Records while the third set all came from 2014 releases that I picked up at the end of last year from other people's best of lists.
Best song I heard since the last show - Total Giovanni - Can't Control My Love - See the video for the song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=93&v=m3EBvWdFTZw

The Coolest Thing About Love is the name of an indie-pop podcast hosted by Frank Seglenieks. I play alternative music that usually classified as indie-pop with the occasional feature on a particular artist or theme as I have been known to veer in soul and funk. I start off each show with the best song that I have heard since the last show and end with a random songs pulled from my song library.
Of course I named the show after the great album by the Smittens and I pay homage to the band by using a clip of their song 11:11 for my theme. I hope the band doesn't mind, but when I have talked to various members of the band after shows they seem like nice people whom I think would be good with it.
I also use this name for my DJ night happening occasionally at the Jane Bond in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.
Note that the links to shows older than 6 months might not be working, if you really want those shows please send me an email and I can get them to you. (Note that prior to 2018 I called my podcast FireballXL5, so don't be confused if you look at an old setlist)
Special thanks to Jeff Woods for finding my a place to host my mp3s!
