Comment:

the idea for this mix comes from its first track which is an old suede b-side from "lazy" (also on sci-fi lullabies compilation)... i liked the idea of a compilation which contains the tracklisting in the first song and also the songs mentioned are all good and the order works quite well too, especially the final 3 tracks... i thought about adding some more "sad" songs of my own but i felt it was fine the way it was

"these are the sad songs" lyrics:
lay lady lay and band of gold
a day in the life, and dream of sheep
seasong and vincent and death disco
listen to the music in your sleep

these are the sad songs, the broken words
these are the sad songs, the lies you've heard
these are the good times you keep inside
these are the good things that you can have if you try

venus in furs and an occasional dream
sign o the times and bill is dead
and lazyitis and big louise
listen to the music in your head

these are the sad songs, the broken words
these are the sad songs, the lies you've heard
these are the good times you keep inside
these are the good things that you can have if you try
