Comment:

I should be embarassed at myself for making most of this mix, but some songs are really catchy...I should be embarassed for putting Debarge and Phil Collins on a mix. So we'll file those under guilty pleasure categories and move on. I should probably be embarassed about the inclusion of Ballroom Blitz, but that song is awesome anyway. Anyway, all catchy, all poppy. Good times.

I like the Debarge, Phil Collins and "Ballroom Blitz"... but not enough to put on a mix! I commend you for that. The mix looks pretty cool though.

Oh, the fun-ness! Best choice: "The Waiting". Very upbeat song. And never be ashamed of "Ballroom Blitz"; its supremely gay coolness cannot be denied, and will one day be cherished by all
