Comment:

here we have the latest in my series of mixes for my wonderful girl. its delivery was supposed to coincide with valentine's day but unfortunately & quite predictably it's going to be late - this has actually been the longest gap between mixes that there's been since i met her two & a half years ago. in a way i guess that's a bit disheartening, but when looking at the larger picture i think i prefer it this way: it makes the occasion that much more special & allows me that much more time to focus & enhance the final product. i started this one before christmas, so technically i've been working on it for roughly 3-4 months - but that's misleading, since i put it aside over the holidays & finished it up about a week ago. the overall vibe is very groovy, very R&B-driven, very girl group-esque, & of course filled with the kind of joyous pop that makes my heart beat. title taken from the wedding present song; subtitle taken from miss polly jean harvey. enjoy, everybody.
