Comment:

A mix for a friend working in the Middle East who just got a job that will send her to Kuwait. She's not too excited about the move. Hence inspirational tunes brought to you by Tracy, Curtis, Mariah & Brian. I think some of these songs are going to reappear on an upcoming Class War tape.

You couldn't have a chosen a more apt "inspirational" tune" than that Hidden Cameras song. It's crazy anthemic in a weird way. Overall many apt songs; I'm a sucker for this theme, but still, you've culled together a fine roster of (mostly) atypical choices
