Comment:

i think the theme is pretty obvious. as usual, there are songs that made it onto this mix against my better judgement, but sometimes you must suffer for the sake of the theme.

Where is that K's Choice song from? I don't recognize the title. There is WAY too much estrogen on this mix for me to get behind it, not to mention friggin' U2. Still diggin' the book-end technique, though it falls away by the end of side 2. Ah well, it's tough to maintain, methinks. Nice. Out.

the k's choice song is from the album "the great subconscious club". i wasn't trying to do the bookend thing with this tape. i just associate kitchen with breakfast, which is where i started the tape, and then i was ending it with dessert.

are there specific female artists on this tape that you dislike? and out of curiosity, where does your hatred of u2 come from? too mainstream? pretentious? self-important? i have to admit that they're one of my blind spots - a band that i liked when i was 12 and just can't help but keep liking. also, when i make a themed mix, i don't download extra music just for it - i work with what i have . . . . . hence the complete lack of perfection.

Lady,Lady,Lady...you have done well here. Don't mind my friend Dru- he's a good one even if he doesn't dig U2. This one has a good flow to it, and truth be told I'd love to hear it. Keep 'em coming. Cheers!
