This is turning into a very intersting mix-tape.  In Order to Complete my assignment:

Come On Pilgrim - from Levitate Me
Surfer Rosa - from Oh My Golly!
Doolittle - From Mr. Grieves
Bossanova - from Hang Wire

Ahh, that would be a good mixtape!   Maybe after a few more days, we can try to vote it down to 15-18 songs.

What do you mean by "not sung"

Its a looped recording of a woman saying, "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot".

The following is from an article in Wired about Wilco being sued for using the recording:

In 1998, London-based Irdial-Discs put out a four-CD collection of broadcasts from so-called numbers stations -- mysterious shortwave transmissions, allegedly sent by the worlds' intelligence agencies, of monotone readers spewing alphanumeric streams. On the first of the discs, a woman in an indecipherable accent -- a Mossad agent, according to legend -- keeps repeating three words: "Yankee ... hotel ... foxtrot."

It's the same recording that loops for a minute and a half during "Poor Places," the 10th track on Wilco's 2002 album. After a two-year legal fight, Tweedy agreed in an out-of-court settlement to give Akin Fernandez, Irdial's owner and sole employee, a substantial royalty for the recording.

That counts!   It even has a backstory.  Excellent!
