The Gaslight Anthem - Mulholland Drive

This song was inspired by the 2001 David Lynch American psychological thriller Mulholland Drive. Vocalist and songwriter Brian Fallon told Artist Direct: "I watched that movie for the first time when I was writing the record. I was watching it, and I was like, 'I went through something similar.' It wasn't in the same form exactly, but the sentiment was there. It was a great title, so I wanted to use it."

Fallon told NME how Mulholland Drive inspired this song. "You don't know if the characters in the movie are dead or the roles are reversed or who's who," he explained, "and I remember feeling like that in this one particular relationship that I had where I was, 'I don't know where my head's at here.'"

 

Coldplay - Hurts Like Heaven

Speaking to Billboard magazine the Coldplay vocalist explained why the band's lead guitarist makes a bigger contribution than before: "When we finished the last record Viva La Vida, we were all feeling pretty pleased with ourselves when it was like #1 or whatever. Then… (producer) Brian Eno wrote to us and said, 'Dear Coldplay. I really think we've made a good record here. But I do think we can do a lot better, and I feel we all need to get back to work as soon as possible because I feel like Jonny especially is on the route to something, and he hasn't got there yet.'"

Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls

Tennant said in 1000 UK #1 Hits by Jon Kutner and Spencer Leigh, "We arrived in the studio and Bobby O had programmed Michael Jackson's Billie Jean drum pattern. Chris started to play along and I started playing chords. In terms of the lyrics, the inspiration for West End Girls came from The Message by Grandmaster Flash. I remember once staying at my cousin's house in Nottingham and we were watching some kind of gangster film with James Cagney, and just as I was dropping off to sleep, the lines 'sometimes you're better off dead, there's a gun in your hand and it's pointing to your head' came into my head and I thought 'that's quite good' so I went off to find a pen."

Uncle Kracker - Nobody's Sad On A Saturday Night

This is the lead single from American Country-Rock musician Uncle Kracker's fifth album, Midnight Special. He told The Boot that the LP title isn't a reference to, "the variety show or anything like that." Kracker went on to explain: "A buddy of mine from Texas and I were up in Seattle at the same time and we were going over the album, listening to some of the demo stuff that I had just come out of the studio with. We were kind of kicking it around and he said, 'Man I like that one, it's kind of like a midnight special!' Just meaning like, crack a beer after midnight and listen ... the album's really loose, and that's kind of the whole 'midnight-special' meaning, something you do late."

Tinted Windows - Kind Of A Girl

The Wallflowers feat. Mick Jones - Reboot The Mission

Former Clash member Mick Jones supplied vocals and guitar for this song, which was made available for free on July 24, 2012. A number of critics have compared the track's groove to that of Clash's 1981 single "The Magnificent Seven."

"It would be preposterous for me to say ('Reboot the Mission') doesn't sound like the Clash. That was our intent. I even mention Joe Strummer in the song," Dylan told Billboard magazine. "So we thought, 'Let's take it all the way home and see if we can't get Mick to participate somehow. I've met him a handful of times throughout the years and just saw him when he played in L.A. with Big Audio Dynamite...so he was fresh on my mind. He mentioned doing something together, so I just called and he was into it."
