I second that, Mr. Leo. Where indeed! [I saw him live when I went to a peace protest in september of my 8th grade year. It was Operation Ceasefire. He was the main reason I went, but yeah. I felt like such a badass freedom fighter, even though my mom went with me.]
Zodiac Mindwarp	Prime Mover
I chose this song to close because, in the version I have, it opens with a spoken word piece that goes like this: "LISTEN HERE, WOLF CHILD. I SPEAK TO YOU OF THE SCIENCE OF MYTHOLOGY. I SPEAK OF MAVERICK DEVIATION. THE PSYCHO-TRONIC LOVE COMMANDOS. WE SHALL BE DRUNKEN STARS, WE SHALL FEAR NOTHING. DEMAND THE IMPOSSIBLE! DREAM YOUR DESTINY! DEFY THE LOGIC OF ALPHABETS! I SLAY THE KING OF THE WOLVES! NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE! HAH!" ....and that's just a good message to have when you're rockin' an all-nighter, I think.

Comment:

Long live college. Soon we'll be too old to do this and we'll fall asleep immediately after reruns of headbanger's ball and we'll snore too loudly and be told that we have sleep apnea and that we need to watch our cholesteral and then it will ALL be over.

...This is a testament to word association. Notice how the first few tracks relate to staying up, and from then on it's just a toss up? Yeah. That's called ADD. It's also called "This song totally just reminded me of..." and in the end, that is how a mix is born that truly captures the emotion in its title. Enjoy. And don't sleep.
