My reason to get out of bed before noon
Comment:
For Jen. Not every song has a romantic message, but the mix is very romantic for a variety of reasons. Aside from a couple of key tracks, the subject matter of the songs included is not as important as the fact that I included the specific song in question. There are some ragged-ish transitions here, but that's part of the general charm of this particular mix. Thanks to Randy Handfulls for the Fall tune and to kristinaface for the LL Cool J song. Title (which is all too true in this case) from the Billy Bragg track.Feedback:
Nice Rob.
Excellent mix, and one of my favorite Husker Du songs.
nice Billy Bragg cut
ok I can imagine "Question of lust" be romantic but Husker Du - Terms of Psychic Warfare,
Momus - What Will Death Be Like?, Joy Division - Warsaw or dead Kennedys too, but it looks fun to me

great divine comedy song.
nice mix, but shouldn't the title be "You're my reason *not* to get out of bed before noon"?
Like in "High Fidelity", where you're making a mix for her, instead of the mix you want her to listen to? I always have trouble trying to do that. There are a bunch of good cuts here; I love that Pavement song.
Love (and understand) the sentiment. Completely. "Bonnie and Clyde" works..!
very nice, rob.
Very interesting cuts. I just had a talk about that Elvis song - is it really sad or really corny? I can't quite decide. It sure seems peculiar showing up on a romantic mix, though, as does the LL Cool J song. But hey, who's keeping score?
lots of great stuff!
This looks splendid! interesting choices, I'm sure there are plenty of inside references here.
Very cool, Rob. Tons of great stuff on here. That Roots track is a recent favorite around our house these days. Nice...(what Valis said).
No, this isn't your typical romantic mix, but it's still pretty marvelous. So are you or Jen moving to California?
I like this too. A lot. I definitely don't think the Elvis is corny. Now, if John Tesh were singing it...
tres sweet...
I love this!!! Chuck Berry to the Dead Kennedys... perfect!
Great title (and a great song!) Also nice to see Divine Comedy in there. Saw them live a month back and it was a great show! You've got not one but two songs that Dean Wareham later covered (Youth, Bonnie and Clyde). Steve Wynn also did a good cover of Bonnie and Clyde.
Missed this before, Rob, but I love The Fall and Can tracks especially
