Comment:

I know that the song "Final Day" by Young Marble Giants would have just been perfect for this mix (especially since the song is about the end of the world and that's the title and theme to this mix) BUT I already have that song on several cds, so I wanted to put a song by the band that I don't have. That's probably the only thing I regret about this mix. Overall, it works really well for my current need for extremely morose music since the Fall season is upon us. I'm just waiting for those depressing, chilly, overcast days to begin (and I live in Florida,dammit!) Not that I want them to but I know that they're coming. The Goldfrapp song always gets me teary-eyed and although I've heard Godspeed before, I never heard this particular track before until I heard it in the film "28 Days Later," where it sounded terrifying in the theatre. I love this song now and I must say that it went perfectly with the film. I, of course, bought the film soundtrack which is equally depressing. Sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows everywhere...hah! ;)
