Comment:

This mix is posted in two parts! Be sure you don't miss the other half and other download here. Here's a list of all the genres I used: Pop, Alternative, Rock, Brit Pop, Indie, Alternative, Blues, Slow Rock, Alt Country, Surf Country, Acoustic, General Pop, Folk, Lo-Fi, Female Vocalists, Electronic, Crossover, Synth-Pop Unplugged, Rawr. But most can be summed up as Alt Country or just straight Alternative. Sorry the files are so large. Usually when I put something up online I convert them first to a managable size, but still listening quality (112 kbps or 128) I store most all my personal music at 320 or higher and I just didn't feel like wasting my time converting and retagging everything.
Track Notes:
01: Monsters are not.
09: Mostly effective for a slow sexy strip tease.
10: I still play this entire album on shuffle in the background every time I take a bubble bath.
13: Mentions where I live Corpus Christi, TX.
19: I actually heard this on my horrible local radio station a few times and was pleased.
20: This entire album is solid. She's an amazing artist. If you don't know Kasey Chamber's name, get on it!
23: This song falls completely outside the grouping here, but Skin (formerly of Skunk Anansie) is just that awesome.
24: Three minute organ solo. 'nough said.
25: If you like the thought of what the White Stripes will sound like after Jack White is tragically rendered mute, is elected President. Then he'd have to be impeached and striped of his title and starts up The White Stripes twenty years from now and Meg sings ... you might like this song, but prolly not. It's only saving grace is having a chick drummer, and the guitarist/frontman is aging rocker ian MacKaye (formerly Embrace, Minor Threat, and Fugazi)

A striptease to Emily Haines? Where? In the shower, where no one can see your tears? :P

I love it.
