Comment:

This was made for my girlfriend for Valentine's Day. Basically consists of the songs that made me long for love in the time before I had her. Tried to find the best versions possible of the old standards on here. To those who question the choice of Elvis Costello but haven't heard it, you really should. It's simple, vulnerable, tender and adds something to the song that most versions I've heard do not. But anyway. The title of the mix IS from Grosse Pointe Blank, if anyone guessed.

Nice mix of some obvious classic choices and some newer not so obvious choices (I never would have thought going to Weezer for this kind of mix).

Ooh, this is really nice! I agree with the person who said they would have never thought tp put Weezer here, but it works really well. Love that Ben Folds song too.
