Comment:

I finally got ambitious enough to make a mix for my parents. I hope they don't hate it, even if E. Smith does drop the f-bomb on "Rose Parade." Songs not included: U2's "Mofo," John Lennon's "Mother" (or "My Mummy's Dead"), The Smashing Pumpkins' "To Forgive," Nirvana's "Scentless Apprentice," R.E.M.'s "Sweetness Follows," The Fresh Prince and DJ Jazzy Jeff's "Parents Just Don't Understand," or, of course, The Doors' "The End." Title loosely from the Ella/Louis standard.

Reminds me of a mix I made my mom: "Oh no! I Think I Dropped The Steroids!" I did throw some Nirvana on there (acoustic). She thought B&S sounded like The Kingston Trio!
