"I Think She Likes Me" by Treat Her Right" is an answer I gave to Corny O'Connell's "Question of the Day" this morning on WFUV. "I Think She Likes Me" was the signature song of Treat Her Right, a band that preceded Morphine.

Treat Her Right :
David Champagne
Billy Conway
Jim Fitting
Mark Sandman

Treat Her Right may not have a mobile app, but WFUV has a really good one.
