Comment:

Because I can. So this one started out with the idea of finding a new home. You graduate from college, and suddenly your whole family has grown up, your friends are getting married, getting real jobs, buying houses. Home is now scattered across the country in the few people who you miss so much that you plan trips just to see them. Don't want to get married yet, want to travel, constantly broke, can't seem to satisfy the most humble of desires... youth. Every once in a while you run into a stretch of serious frustration, impatience, or sadness... but with a few good friends, good music, and a little alcohol, anything is possible. Anyway, I guess I've been delving into my imagination alot lately, thinking about times yet to come. Hopefully they won't be imaginary forever. For V9, who makes it all bearable. Apologies to Jenny for scooping the Devendra track... it's just too sweet to be left behind. And I'll be damned if Apologies To The Queen Mary isn't every bit as good as I hoped it would be.

Mmm, it seems that everybody knows devendra banhart apart from me - I may have to fix that. Otherwise, not too much that I know, but I do love that Spoon pick.

This looks damned fine to me. (I'd already scooped both of you on that Banhart track with my "The wonders don't care" mix... not that it matters. ;-) )

But has Rob ever posted a mix with a cover this wild? I think not. Lovely mix. Maurice Sendak would be proud.

Lovely -- The Mia Doi Todd is a special treat, and 5, 8 and 15 were among the best songs I heard in '05.
