Comment:

This is actually a two-disc compilation which is better suited for a cassette; unfornuately, the boy for whom this is intended is absolutely too ultramodern to have a tape deck. Regardless of the format, the content is supposed to encapsulate a very delicate brand of teenage languish. Side 1 is the imparting of knowledge to the receiving party; my quiet and violent affection is delivered through these songs. Side 2 is the realization that no matter how tenderly I feel or how beautiful he is, there is nothing to be done. A sound relationship (his with another girl) and blossoming friendship (between us) depends on my adherence to self control. The final track is particularly poignant; its intent is to let the listener know that while I can maintain a brilliant comraderie, I hear this song whenever he comes to mind.
