Rilo Kiley is one of those little, off-brand, Los Angeles bands that people either love or hate. I love them. The lyrics to my favorite song of theirs – A Better Son/Daughter – really, really hit home for me when I was dealing with the death of my mother.

Here are my five favorite Rilo Kiley songs:

1. A Better Son/Daughter
2. Spectacular Views
3. 15
4. The Frug
5. Tie: The Angels Hung Around / Smoke Detector
