Just Finished Side A of a Mixtape

Postby hotmessization » Sat Feb 27, 2010 1:05 am

There's a girl who I am crazy about. Despite her being taken and me just not having a chance with her, I in all of my glorious pathos made her a mixtape for Christmas. She loved (who wouldn't?). There's nothing really message-wise in it, just introducing her to more music. Her birthday is in less than a month, so I've been working on another one. I finally filled up Side A.

"Sugarcube" - Yo La Tengo
"Mighty Little Man" - Steve Burns
"Perfume-V" - Pavement
"Careful" - Sebadoh
"Exit Flagger" - Guided By Voices
"Hyper Enough" - Superchunk
"Start With" - Seaweed
"Harvest Spoon" - Free Kitten
"Stars" - Hum
"The Desert" - Vivian Girls
"Audrey's Eyes" - Velocity Girl
"Cannonball" - The Breeders
"Tidal Wave" - The Apples In Stereo
"Scuffle With Nature" - The Takeovers

I think it's a nicely done tape that giving to her will subtly suggest "Oh, you know that dude you're dating? Yeah, I'm better."

Do you guys have any suggestions for Side B?

I have always wanted a guy to make a mix like that for me. And holy shit you picked some good ones. I don't see how you can fail! :wink:

Songs so far for Side B in no order yet.

I still have about 10 minutes to fill, and some of these songs might get cut as I order them and put them on the tape. Help is needed.

"Friends Of P." - The Rentals
"Ambulance" - Saturday Looks Good To Me
"Celebrity Art Party" - The Embarrassment
"Michael Says Not" - Mighty Mighty
"Suki" - Unrest
"Darl" - Buffalo Tom
"All Sideways" - Scarce
"Hurry! Hurry! Before It Happens Again" - Vague Angels
"I'll Be Your Jonny On The Spot" - Ween
"In A Name" - Tsunami
"Motherland" - Eleventh Dream Day

She's a Weezer fan, so The Rentals was obvious. She's a big Smiths fan, so I figure she'll enjoy Mighty Mighty stuff.

I suppose since she's a Smith's fan and since you're desperate to get with her, one choice might be Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want. Its a beautiful song and would be a great ending to side 2 in my opinion.

She should get that hint right?

You haven't updated us on the mix-tape mission... Was it a success?

She hasn't talked much about it. I don't think she's had the chance to listen to it much.

I guess I'll find out in due time.
