"Will you please play This Must be the Place, by the Talking Heads? I'm a faithful listener of your show and a former Seattleite. Now listening in New Hampshire. Moved here to be closer to family. Thought it a fitting song to remind us all to be grateful for having a place to call home during these unsettling times. Thank you to you and all the DJs at KEXP for the musical company you add to my days. Wouldn't be home without you! Stay safe and healthy." - Marissa

"I think some of us who are part of the KEXP community are also part of the WNYC Community here in NY. On Friday, our much loved morning edition host Richard Hake passed away at just 51. He was a kind, compassionate, insightful person, and comforting radio presence for us. And he loved music. Can you please play some New Order for him and us? He apparently loved them. THANK YOU so much for all you and the team are doing during these just effed up times. We appreciate you so much!" - Wendy, thank you!

"Today I'm celebrating my 27th birthday working from home in Brooklyn. It's a great time for reflection... can you play Where Is My Mind by the Pixies? Also, if possible would you shout out my twin brother, Austin, working from home in Dallas? Looking forward to tuning in for another year." - You got it, Bronsin. Happy birthday to you and Austin!

Request for Justin This wrinkle in time, can't give it no credit I thought about my space, and I really got me down I got me so down, I got me a headache My heart's crammed in my cranium, and it still knows how to pound

"We recorded this song, "Stop Pretending", as we were continuing to stay at home. The song was written using a collaboration exercise that we had given to our fans as an outlet to create and find connection in a time of duress & isolation (we called it the "Stay Home Stems" series) —and it ended up also working for us— this song was written, recorded, mixed and mastered in two days at our house, & this what we have to show for it. If often write apocalyptic songs as way to enter a new world that juxtaposes despair with hope.. I hope it can bring a little bit of light in a dark season. Sending all of our love to everyone during this time. We can't wait to be together again." - XO Jessica, Peter & Deep Sea Diver thedeepseadiver.bandcamp.com

"My name is Regan, I am a long-time listener and amplifier. Yesterday morning my best friend's husband Marty died. He had battled breast cancer for two years. He was only 53 years old and he leaves behind two boys ages 12 and 10. We are devastated and I am so sad for my friend and her kids. I can't believe I can't go and give her a big hug during all this pain. Can you please play LCD Soundsystem "Someone Great."

Request from Twitter: "Will you please play the Boy in the Bubble?! I feel like those words “these are the days of miracle and wonder, don’t cry “ might help us all."

"I’ve had a hankering to hear some Housemartins. Would you play them at any day this week where it’s appropriate, because really what is a day? Appreciate all of you at KEXP so much. It’s more likely than not that KEXP is playing at my house these days." - Thank you, Anne! This one is for you.

Featuring Peter Buck of R.E.M. playing guitar on this one from The Replacements third album, 'Let It Be' For Heather in Telluride, CO!

You know the air is unfit to breathe Our food is unfit to eat We know things are bad Worse than bad; they're crazy It's like everything everywhere Is going crazy So we don't go out anymore We sit in the house and slowly The world we're living in is getting smaller For Joe, who wrote in this morning: "Can you play a good song that communicates "I'm mad as hell & I'm not going to take this anymore?" Don't care which, just need this today."

For Erika in Ballard, who is currently helping her daughter out with high school chemistry

Found on ninth studio album from the English electronic duo. This has been The Morning Show, we'll see you all again tomorrow at 6:00 AM! Stay well in the meantime, friends.
