Just for Joe

I made a mixtape!

Other people can listen to it as well. It's not perfect at all, I had to download a program to convert my stupid apple ecrypted songs to mp3s and got kind of sick of that after awhile so ending up not selecting the 12 best songs I am really into at this moment but rather 12 songs that I could live with putting on a mixtape right at this moment. Whatever.

really random "it's 11 at night and I want to go to bed" thoughts about the songs... follow along as you listen! i went for a sort of block format, it starts off electronic/dance-y, moves into retro, and ends up slower.
1. christine plays this at spin class and it makes me move my feet. i love the stuttering part, c-c-c-cold.
2. i have never had heroin or cocaine in my veins, but i still dig this song.
3. every time i hear this song i am like, yea, he's got love for me, and then i remember i was not born in the 80s.
4. one of my top 5 all time fave songs.
5. heard it once on six feet under and have loved it ever since.
6. i love the tambourine. if i had a band every song would have tambourine in it.
7. i want my two dollars!
8. she opened for new pornographers when i saw them last fall. i don't really understand what she is saying but i sort of half sing/half hum along.
9. a voice like thom yorke, piano like tori amos. nice.
10. just beautiful. the last verse kills me.
11. a song to fall asleep to.

I have stayed away from Kelley Polar because I feel like that's someone the ex would've enjoyed. But i was in the wrong!

Yay for mixtapes!
