Comment:

I think I covered all the emotional stages of getting dumped. We start off bawling from your heart gettin ripped out, then some pity, then pissed off, then you flip to side two for a dash of FU, followed by depressed longing and desire, followed by your friends showing up to cheer you up, with a "maybe someday/this isn't over" flavor, closing with a "dump me once, shame on you, dump me twice..." statement of "you'll never own me" So get decked out in all black and make lemonade out of those lemons (or stick em down your shirt to make your boobs look bigger).
And I did it all without ANY Velvet Underground!

You forgot the moshing to Cracker stage. Quite cool, I must say.

pretty cool. but i'd substitute the less than jake cover of "it's raining on prom night" for the john travolta/olivia newton duet ;) i mean, that was my first thought when i saw the title...

For some reason, it's the sexiest mix I have seen in a long time. Maybe it's the LTJ/Elvis Costello/Ben Folds mix. I had my Senior prom back in May, and for some reason it just fits the after prom party.

Whoa, AWESOME mix. That Less Than Jake track is really cool. Although I think the mix could have used LTJ's "Look What Happened." And also, no indie emo! Good job!
