Comment:
this is disc two. i realize there's some artist overlapping - but how can you choose between "van halen" and "sorry", really? this is a very hypothetical set of mixes; i might have made something like this had i had the capacity to burn discs in 1998. some of it is pretty mainstream and some of it is kind of obscure (has ANYONE ever heard that size 14 song?); truth be told i was kind of snotty back then and wouldn't have admitted to liking half of this stuff, but it's time to fess up, i suppose. it's sadly missing that spacehog song (i can't find it anywhere) but for now, this is it.some obvious things are missing - smashing pumpkins, nirvana, that kind of stuff. truth be told; a lot of those songs got kind of ruined for me due to excessive airplay - most of them are hard for me to listen to and enjoy now. it feels kind of incomplete without them and some other tracks that i ultimately deemed nonessential, but keep in mind i am actually listening to these discs now, and i didn't want to include any songs i was lukewarm about then.
p.s. - that ben kweller track is probably not from the nineties, now that i think about it. oh, well.
Feedback:
wow, i am 20, so this is really familiar to me. i have heard that size 14 song too. these songs remind me of an entire other me, it's crazy what 10 years can do.
Bah, none of them! Still, "Cut Your Hair" and "Not If You Were the Last Junkie..." are two of the many must haves on here.The Superdrag song eternally stuck in my head is "Sucked Out." It was just a couple years ago when from some reason I decided it was my mission to make sure that song was running through my friend's head as he was at the altar getting married.
