I grew up with this. The last song, It’s Gonna Be Lonely, is perfect when you are feeling melodramatic about a goodbye.
NirvanaMTV Unplugged in New York
This album is sweet, and there’s something personal about it.
Bill EvansFrom Left to Right
Jazz piano, nice in the morning or on the plane. Brian Reitzell, my music supervisor, gave this to me.
Zoot WomanLiving in a Magazine
Another one for the car… Nobody Knows, Pt. 1 is good when you have a secret crush.
N.E.R.DIn Search Of…
’Truth or Dare’ is sexy, a good CD for driving at night…
Roxy MusicAvalon
Always good, romantic, and a classic. This has More Than This on it and To Turn You On…for when you're hanging out and feeling suave and sophisticated.

We used the song Too Young in Lost in Translation when Bill [Murray] and Scarlett [Johansson] are dancing. I also really love the song Honeymoon.
New OrderPower, Corruption & lies
I love New Order and I love this album and I love the cover.
My Bloody ValentineLoveless
Great, romantic, and melancholic and dreamy, one of my favorite records.
Gang Of FourEntertainment!
Really good in the car — or on headphones in the airport if you’re feeling a little aggressive. Natural’s Not in It is my favorite song on it.
