Comment:

"He who desires but acts not, breeds pestilence"
Sometimes, even William Blake can be wrong. This mix is about coming to terms with fate ("up against your will") and burying memories and hopes to make way for smarter ones. A few of the songs are lyrically off the mark, but they all tell a story in one form or another. Sometimes music says things that lyrics do not. The music itself conveyed the sense of yearning lost that was necessary to achieve the proper catharsis.

I absolutely LOVE your opener and closer here, along with that to die for BD/JC duet and those classics by the Bunnymen and Nick Drake, and I like that Pulp track, as well.
