We know this is already on all of your calendars, but in case you forgot your calendar at home today, here's your gentle reminder that it's National Lasagna Day.

Lasagna. Flat, wide pasta noodles, with layers of melty cheese, cooked vegetables, perhaps seasoned beef or sausage. It's a meal that deserves to be celebrated. As Sean points out, it's a little weird to celebrate it on such a hot day, but honestly, it should always be celebrated.

To commemorate this momentous day, what songs with lots of dense, musical layers do you want to hear for today's Coffee Break?

Songs played


River Deep - Mountain High - Ike and Tina Turner
Someone Great - LCD Soundsystem
