shonen knife  top of the world  
eyeball skeleton  eyeball skeleton  
the white stripes  apple blossom  
the fiery furnaces  my dog was lost but now he's found  
the donnas  the gold medal  
babes in toyland  calling occupants of interplanetary craft  
the fall  totally wired  
the beets  killer tofu

kelly clarkson  behind these hazel eyes  
len  steal my sunshine  
ciara (featuring missy elliot)  1,2 step 
annie  heartbeat (phones maximo remix)  
the fiery furnaces  tropical iceland  
the white stripes  little ghost  
emmylou harris & beck  sin city 
the cure  just like heaven  
the flaming lips  spongebob and patrick confront the psychic wall of energy 
fountains of wayne  sink to the bottom  
veruca salt  seether

OK. So this is a special one for my 9 year old, Maggie, who's out of town with her mom and sister right now. She's getting a new cd player from some future family members (my sister-in-law's getting married) and I wanted her to have a new mix to listen to when she comes home. Swear to God, 75% of this is pulled from her own Itunes playlist along with some stuff that I know she likes from our collection. She LOVES the Fiery Furnaces and White Stripes and she personally requested that I put that Fall track on a mix for her someday.My wife and I have never censored what we listen to around her since she was a baby, for the most part, so she's grown up listening to pretty much anything that we've listened to. We always try and encourage her to be open to anything. She's a really amazing kid, in more ways than I could list here, and I couldn't be prouder of her.Oh yeah, the title refers to a short film she made at her MovieMakers summer camp last month in which she played Chewbacca and, apparently, marries R2D2 at the end of the movie. We'll get to see it (and get our own copy) this Friday. Pretty exciting stuff, I tell ya.

That's one hip 9 year old if she digs Totally Wired! Actually , all of this is cooler than what I was listening to at that age.

This is really impressive! I don't think I knew half of this stuff when I was 9 (Ok, some of it wasn't around when I was 9, but anyway...!) It's a lovely idea, too, and I'm sure she'll love it. We'll definitely have to set up another trade soon!

The Beets! You are officially AOTM's awesomest mixer. Tons of other wonderful songs on here, and I must confess to my envy: I wish I was this musically sophisticated when I was 9-years-old.
