As you say good-bye to summer, say hello to some songs that will keep you company long after you pack your swimsuit away. Heart is keeping classic rock alive, Richard Thompson is keeping the world safe for guitar heroes, Ryan Bingham keeps his Oscar on the shelf, and indie pop duo the Weepies are keeping me humming all the way into autumn. The only dark cloud is Goo Goo Dolls’ mid-tempo, corporate sludge. Is it me or is one Goo Goo Dolls song like all the rest?

WATCH: Check out this week’s top pick, the Weepies.

PLAY: The Weepies, “Be My Thrill”

Tuesday, August 31, 2010 6:00 am

After a two-year break to get their baby off on the right foot, the Weepies’ Deb Talan and Steve Tannen have returned to making perfectly crafted pop music. “Be My Thrill” is impossibly infectious. It’s the sound of two people in wedded musical bliss making the world smile one bouncy song, sunny harmony, and jangle guitar at a time. Keep it the car with the top down.
