Whoah, great topic, and damn do I understand where you're coming from. Some other songs that might do well here: Nirvana "Serve the Servants", Green Day "Coming Clean", Ani DiFranco "Born a Lion" or "Angry Anymore", Beulah "My Horoscope Said it would Be a Bad Year", Mates of State "10 Years Later", Pearl Jam "Daughter", Radiohead "Exit Music (For a Film)", Rainer Maria "Thought I Was", Texas is the Reason "Back and to the Left", Tori Amos "Mother" or "Winter", Nico "The Fairest of the Seasons", Hot Water Music "Rooftops", Springsteen "My Hometown", Lisa Germano "Geek the Girl", Bright Eyes (too many to list that would work, maybe "June on the West Coast"), Janis Joplin "Kozmic Blues". Oh my God. I could go on for days. I hope that helps, that was just off the top of my head. Oh, and hey.. when it's all done, drop me a line at baby_linzer@hotmail.com. I've been dying to make a similar mix.. why not trade?

To follow up, compliments on your choices as they are. Not tracks I would have thought of immediately, but ones that will make a fine, fine mix.

Hey, did you ever give this mix to the rents? I remember you working on it but I do not recall you completing it or sending it off.
