js_thrillToday's song is Sept 16 Triple X Love! Love! (Or possibly Sept 19 Triple X Love! Love!).
There is a fragment of another song at the beginning here, which is present on all the youtube uploads I could find, but which is not present if you go listen to the start of the song at the iTunes store. I don't have the album Sweden, so I can't check to see what's up with that, but I assume it is a weird artifact on all the youtube videos I can find. Weirdly, the book says the song title is Sept 19 Triple X Love! Love! but all other sources I can find list it as Sept 20. You may recall there was an earlier song that Darnielle had indicated was mistitled on the official release, but he didn't say anything about a similar issue in these annotations. I did more investigation of what was going on here than was strictly necessary, and yet I have no answers. If I were in an epistolary novel built around journal entries reflecting on this book, these sorts of discrepancies would be a good hook for "something is afoot, and the author of the journal entries gets pulled into the mystery while noticing them".
