mouse, i love that first one! and auralpoison, that is a crazygood mix

[pollystyrene]

Yeah, I know it's lacking there- I'm not a big Dave Matthews fan (nothing wrong with him, just not my thing) so I don't have any and LeBoy's a big Police fan, so we have lots of it, but I'm guessing she has all of their stuff. There's a version of Roxanne by Incubus that I'm hoping she doesn't have.

[bunnyb]

It looks great, polly! I sent her one at Christmas and she loved it (by chance I'd included one of her favourite songs - River, by Joni Mitchell). Dare I say though that there is no Dave Matthews Band or Sting/The Police?

[pollystyrene]

I'm making a mix CD to sent to Mandolyn, along with some other stuff. I took into consideration what she had listed here and what she has listed on her Facebook page, and added some other music that makes me happy. I'm not getting scientific and putting it in any order; below it's shown in alphabetical order, but on the CD it will be in time order. I think it's pretty good- not sure if she'll like it all.

AP--i saw gram rabbit at spaceland last year! and i'm in love with MGMT right now too.

[auralpoison]

Well, I am something of a seeker. Often times an eccentric obscurist. Or maybe I'm just trying to look cool. Nah. Music is in my bones. Got my first record player at the tender age of three & still have it.

But I know it's possible you've heard some of them, just via mersh. The Buzzcocks song was used in an AARP commercial. That pissed me off like Iggy Pop touting a cruise line that has no sex, no drugs, no rock & roll. No sex machines, either. HAH! The Gram Rabbit song was in the CSI episode "Fannysmackin'". Arctic Monkeys was an "it" band a few years ago. And that version of Cameo's "Word Up" (Korn did it, too.) was used in the CSI episode "Post Mortem". It's a rare "Full Hodges Experience" moment. The Lyrics Born song was a featured track on MySpace for a bit as well.

If you'd like, you can PM me your addy & I will send you a copy for experimentation.

[LoveMyPugs]

auralpoison - i was looking down your list and i'ver never heard of a single song on that list. so i went to youtube and started looking them all up. and i thought i was a pretty well rounded person when it came to music but apparently not cause the only song i'd heard on that list was Word Up and it was a different version.

interesting...

[auralpoison]

So nobody's been here in a year. I hope it's okay that I brought this back.

I'm making a mix cd for a new friend. I know she's kinda goth-y, but she's been here long enough to be starved for real music. I'd like to think anything goes with her. So here's my list, most of it is pretty obvious new-ish singles. Any suggestions?

Gram Rabbit - Paper Heart
Los Campesinos - Broken Heartbeats Sound Like Breakbeats
Buzzcocks - Everybody's Happy Nowadays (A tribute to Stargazer, my last mix cd goddess.)
The FASHION - Solo Impala
Willis - Word Up
Lyrics Born - I Like It, I Love It
The Gossip - Standing In the Way of Control
Barry Adamson - Spend a Little Time
Arctic Monkeys - I Bet You Look Good On the Dance Floor
Santogold - L.E.S. Artistes
Vampire Weekend - The Kids Don't Stand a Chance
Les Savvy Fav - Patty Lee
MGMT - Electric Feel
The Jealous Girlfriends - Something In the Water
YACHT - See a Penny Pick It Up

I'm not entirely happy with the end. I may tweak. But so far I like it.
