Comment:

It may look a little like a musical smorgsasbord, but it actually works. With the leaves starting to turn colours around my home, I thought it was time to make the annual fall mix...something to keep me upbeat as the days get colder. I had to include the Erasure tune because it's been in my head ever since I watched an old episode of "Scrubs" the other day, and that R.E.M. song REALLY has me anticipating the new album...can't wait to pick it up on Tuesday! Cheers! -Famous.

Truly great mix my friend! I really like that Muse song and I anticipate that REM album too, I've heard that you can stream it somehow from either their web-site or through my VIP membership to one of the radio stations from the Chi-Town area (XRT). I've been meaning to check that out but things have been getting a little cheeky around these parts lately and I could sure use a couple of cold ones and maybe a game or two of darts or Golden Tee! Sorry to hear about the Expos - one less baseball team north of the border - glad they weren't the Jays though. Missing the blogs - hope they are up soon! Take care, bud!

Every time I see "Vienna" I always automatically think of Ultravox. Thanks for reminding me of Billy Joel's song. I'd forgotten how much I liked it. The perfect end to a fall day.

great mix, as per usual. I've streamed the new REM album on myspace.com, and it sounds pretty awesome.

I miss my blog =(
