[Raj]

Tipe-padd eated mah post? k:

Easy to be Hard - Hair soundtrack

[cminus]

Huh. No overlaps with Fred today.

"Easy People", The Nields
"Easy Ride", The Doors
"Easy Way Down", Snowpony
"Easy Wind", Grateful Dead
"Eat It", Weird Al Yankovic
"Eat The Rich", Aerosmith
"Eating Toothpaste", Bratmobile
"Ebb Tide", Erasure
"Echo", Joe Satriani
"Eclipse", Pink Floyd
"Eddie's Coming Out Tonight", Night Ranger
"Eddie's Concubine", Eddie From Ohio
"Eden Reprised", Sunkings

...and, just outside the range on my computer, but possibly not on other people's: "Easy Livin'" by Uriah Heep.

Most recommended: "Easy People", narrowly beating out "Eddie's Concubine". This is an interesting pair. The Nields and Eddie From Ohio have similar fan bases and have performed at the same shows, and the two songs are both about women turning the corner from ill-chosen relationships. The singer in "Easy People" is a little further along that curve and comes across as both more thoughtful and more strong-willed, while the singer in "Eddie's Concubine" has her "eureka" moment during the course of the song, which manages to be an altogether more raucous number while still channeling someone who could use a little more self-esteem.

Unfortunately, neither of the linked videos are the best versions of the songs in question, but I hope they're good enough to get the idea across.

[Geds]

I'm going to bend the rules slightly just because I haven't posted here in a while and I feel like it...

"Easier Said than Done," Jessi Lynn (two versions). Jessi's a friend of mine and not at all bad at what she does.
"Easy," Fuel
"Easy," Roger Clyne & the Peacemakers (2 versions)
"Eat Healthy," Jim Gaffigan
"Eat Like an American," Jim Gaffigan
"Eat Vegetarian," Jim Gaffigan (he sure likes to tell jokes about food)
"Eddie Vedder," Local H (2 versions)
"Eden's Gate," Pat Green

[Selaris, Minister of Avoiding Prophecies and Gratuitous Alphabetization]

"Echo"-Trapt

[Nathaniel]

Easy Morning Rebel - My Morning Jacket
Eating Noddemix - Young Marble Giants
Ebony Eyes - Stevie Wonder
Echo Sam - Holy Fuck
Echos Myron - Guided By Voices
Eclipse - Pink Floyd
Ed is a Portal - Akron/Family
Ed is Dead - The Pixies
Eddie - Rocky Horror Picture Show Soundtrack
Eddie's Ragga - Spoon
Edge of the Ocean - Ivy
Edit - Regina Spektor

I was going to skip the ones that had been mentioned already, but "Ed is Dead" and "Echos Myron" are such great songs. And Raj has set the Edith Precedent, so I'll sneak in a plug for "Edith and the Kingpin" by Joni Mitchell, too.

[Pope Easier Rhino I]

"Eat the Rich" by Aerosmith? No, don't believe the false prophets.
"Eat the Rich," Motörhead. Now there's a song you can set your watch by.

That being said, from EAS-EDI is a darned short interval. I'm amazed that I have anything that fits.

[David no longer in Maine]

"Echo", Eleven

This track is not on any of their albums, but was (and I think sill is) available on their website.
Glad to see this song thing make its return to Slacktivist.

[victoria]

"Easy Money" - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
"Easy/Lucky/Free" - Bright Eyes
"East My Pie" - Bedlam Rovers
"Ebony Eyes" - Stevie Wonder
"Eclipse Total Del Amor" - Lisette
"Ecstasy" - PJ Harvey
"Edge of The Deep Green Sea" - The Cure

yes, "Eclipse Total Del Amor" is a Spanish version of Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart," and I am always amazed at the amount of syllables that are packed into the translation and sung w/ such ease.

[Michael Cule]

EASY TO LOVE Charlie Parker (I'm not a great jazz fan but I got some CDs cheap and have am still nowhere near filling up my iPod.)

EASY WINNER Scott Joplin (On the other hand I do like me some ragtime.)

EDDIE The Rocky Horror Picture Show (I fancy myself playing Doctor (von) Scott: "From Ze Day he vas born, he vas Trouble...")

[Linkmeister]

Easy For You To Say -- Linda Ronstadt
Easy Rollin' -- The Rascals

[noyatin]

Easy Rider - Eliza Gilkeyson
Easy Wind - Grateful Dead
East Colorado - Steve Mann
East of the Sun (West of the Sun) - Joshua Redman
Edith and the Kingpin - Joni Mitchell, Herbie Hancock

Steve Mann, an extraordinarily gifted fingerpicker, passed away a few weeks back. His "Live at the Ashgrove", recorded in 1970, is well worth a listen.

[HBQBJ]

Most of the ranges so far I've had exactly zero interesting songs in, but finally here's one:

Eat Your Dog - Bad Religion (I have no idea if the lyrics are correct but you can hear it here)

[Joel Smith]

Just outside the range - Easy Girl - Coconut Records

Eden - Guster

That's all I have...

[Laima]

Going a little outside Fred's on either end, just because this is the first time I've done this, and I have so few entries:

East West - Eric Johnson
Easy from Now On - Terri Clark
Easy Silence - Dixie Chicks
Einini - William Coulter & Friends

[Salamanda]

Econologed - Less Than Jake

[Wenzer]

Now that I am home and can see what I have:

[borealys]

Only one this week:

Easyride - Starling

[coffeedryad]

Echoes of Tragedy - Rhapsody of Fire
Eclipse - Apoptygma Berzerk
Edge of Seventeen - Stevie Nicks

Just outside: Eggs and Sausage (In a Cadillac With Susan Michelson) - Tom Waits

I haven't heard Nick Cave's Easy Money, I must look for it.

[animus]

No one else has a copy of Echo Beach?

[victoria]

coffeedryad, Nick Cave's "Easy Money" is on the Abbattoir Blues/Lyre of Orpheus double album from a few years back.

[spinetingler]

[Socks of Sullenness]

Ecci Mundi Gaudium - Mediaeval Baebes

Not a lot...

[Tonio]

"Eat the Rich" by Aerosmith? No, don't believe the false prophets.
"Eat the Rich," Motörhead. Now there's a song you can set your watch by

This one is for Not Really Here - there's also a Krokus song by the same title. With sentiments such as that, why hasn't Limbaugh or Beck condemned hard rock as not satanic but socialist? "Tonight, the bands that are poisoning your kids with class warfare!"
