Comment:

60 minutes, for elia. a psychic in new orleans told my roommate that in the next nine months, she would meet a boy named michael (or mike) who would change her life. naturally, she is reading into it a ton, and so i made her a mix of michael songs to play it up a bit more.

It's a pretty strange sounding name, when you think of it. My personal favorites: Michael (The Lover) - Geno Washington & The Ram Jam Band (thank you Sammy G!)... the Equals: Michael and the Slipper Tree... Broadcast - Michael A Grammar. Love to hear this. -Michael

Hey, show her the movie with John Travolta, though I don't know if that's what she has in mind.
