Comment:
(Title from the Blue Nile track, and many thanks to Cliff for the Cosmic Rough Riders.) This is a mixed genre one I finished over the weekend - it all started with the Constantines track and is going to my boyfriend, who's already received about 4 from me (and I really hope he does like them and isn't getting sick of them....!) It is purely a mixed-genre, and the only real stipulation is that I don't use any artist I've already used on mixes for him before, with the exception of, in this case, the New Order track: I recently discovered this newer, great version of it (on the bonus CD of Retro), and had to put it on because the song reminds me of him anyway. So, this is for Matthew, who has "green eyes, blue eyes, grey eyes..."
Feedback:
Some great picks - I love the Tom Waits, Modern Lovers, and Uncle Tupelo especially.
Oh boy, you got lots of my favorites on this... Tom Waits, Black Keys, Magazine, Lloyd Cole, Modern Lovers, etc. Great Talking Heads song too.
I also have green eyes, blue eyes & grey eyes, depending upon what I'm wearing. (Not that this means anything, just a tidbit.) Beautiful mix--I'm sure he'll love it. Top-notch Tupelo, Talking Heads and Swell Maps tracks, especially.
A lot of great picks here, despite (or perhaps because of) the negative undercurrent of booze and despair. I hope everything's ok!
Nice one, Siobhan. I hope he digs it! Really love that SLF track.
a lot of great stuff here, really love the stretch 10-16
Ooooohh! Intense.
Prima Stoff, Schwester S. Und ein Mix, der Lloyd Coles wundersch÷nes LW enthSlt, kann gar nicht schlecht sein. Yer boy's a lucky one fer sho. ;)
good stuff, esp 4,5,13,14,18 & 19!
If the boy has the good sense to date *you*, I'm sure he'll appreicate such a great mix. I especially like the Ben Folds, Waits, and Swell Maps cuts, but the hole thing is very nice. As Mohr says,he's a lucky one!
There's a couple of these I really dig, and quite a few I just don't know. As Jenny said, your bloke has the good taste to date you ... and your mixes are an extension of your personality, n'est pas ... so, ergo, he should like this mix, right? : )
I know that i heard that CD Name somewhere but where , ... BLUE NILE, i always loved the TINSELTOWN IN THE RAIN & i still love to listen to it , sometimes.
BTW there are some nice picks on this mix here.

Great lookin' mix from the Queen of Indie...ah track 16...now weren't you once that same girl!
I'm in love with that Modern Lovers song as of lately.
Terrific stuff- yes, as ever, he's gotta like it. Great Tom choice.
great! especially love that tom waits track.
Very cool. I'm liking the Modern Lovers into the Swell Maps a lot.
Oh Yeah - Roadrunner! and I got your discs Siobhan - thanks you for those!
...and I've never met any mix quite like this before. Ace tunes, ace mix. Your boyfriend is one lucky hombre!
You went for three CDs without using anything from the new Mission of Burma? Kudos on your self-control! (^_^) I also love the Lloyd Cole and Billy Bragg selections.
Beautiful Siobhan. (I'd expect no less.) Hooo! Hadn't thought of that particular Lloyd Cole track in a long time. (Brings back many hazy 80s nights.) Like the Swell Maps, SLF-!, etc...hell, I like it all. A lot.
Some great stuff - my favorite Talking Heads song and lots of my favorite bands.
Fantastic -- I HIGHLY doubt he's getting sick of your mixes seeing how great they are! Lucky boy. :)
Excellent. No point in picking highlights, since it is all one big highlight.By the way, I'm enjoying going through your back catalogue. No sure how I managed to miss so many before. Apologies.
I'd love to hear Jeane by Billy Bragg. I used to have a tape of him singing the Faces' song 'Debris' and it was lovely.
