Comment:

Made for a Swap-Bot swap. Here's the blueprint:

A song by a band / artist with only one word in their name (ex: Beck, ABBA, etc)

A cover version of a song

A foreign song

A short song (1 min or under)

A long song (5 min or over)

A song from a movie soundtrack

Your #1 most played song (If you don't have an Mp3 player that calculates this, just add a song that you seem to be listening to constantly)

A song that reminds you of God / Spirituality (doesn't have to be a Christian or religious song, just something that makes you think about a higher power)

A favorite song from childhood

The sweetest love song ever... in your opinion

A very tragic / depressing song

A song that contains lyrics that you really connect with (feel free to include your favorite lyric from the song on the track list!)

A song has an animal in the title

A song by an artist that is dead

A song that you love in a genre that you normally hate (for example, if you hate country, but there is one country song that you do like)

If you have room A song that you have recently discovered and can't stop listening to

This is an International Swap and is okay for newbies as long as your profile is complete! I will ban any shady swappers! Let me know if you have any questions!

Here are a couple of more things to look for, feel free to pick and choose... If you have more room on the disk, that is!!

A song with the word "Hell" in the title

A jazz song

A song that features an unusual instument (something besides the typical guitar / drums etc)

A song with a very long title (5 words or more)

Well, I included three examples of that last one. It was unnerving to make a mix that wasn't meant to flow together, but I tried to make the sound as consistent as I could. This was a good time. I really should make up one of these myself someday.
