burt bacharach  the blob 
britta phillips & dean wareham  ginger snaps 
magnetic fields  papa was a rodeo 
velvet underground  i'll be your mirror 
white stripes  we're going to be friends 
frente!  labour of love 
johnny cash  i hung my head 
cat power  sea of love 
richard thompson  walking the long miles home 
belle & sebastian  you don't send me 
talking heads  pulled up 
lesley gore  off & running

Comment:

for once i actually know what i want to get everyone in my family for christmas, but i don't have any money at all to buy things with. so i made everyone mix tapes and i'm going to put little notes in with them saying that they're both a present and a promise of a better present soon. this is the one for my father. incidentally, while i was listening to this tape for the first time i was writing a paper on battleship potemkin and i had to re-watch the odessa steps sequence, but i didn't feel like turning off the tape, so i watched it with the volume off and the part of the tape with you don't send me and pulled up on it playing instead. i highly recommend this. watching the baby carriage falling down the stairs while david byrne talks about how you pulled him up pulled him up up up up up up up up up ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya is particularly awesome.

I loooove that Burt Bacharach tune. that and the cubic buttload of other great songs make this a fine mix.
