Comment:

I was just thinking I might do a Frankenstein mix some time soon when I Saw sammyg123's of a couple days ago. Like him, I wasn't here for the October 2003 craze and thought it worthy of renewed interest. So here is my version of this mix of various parts. Hopefully I've lived up to the challenge. Oh, and thanks joey de vivre for track 7 (from his Dreamy Instrumentals mix).

The Rules: 1. A song from the last record you bought 2. A blues: not a necessarily a blues record but a song that is labelled (something) blues 3. A song that gets you going in the morning 4. A song that you think is romantic 5. One of the earliest records that you can remember listening to. 6. A song that you discovered from a film 7. A song from your favourite band / artist 8. A song from an artist band that you otherwise don't like, but like this one 9. A Lullaby. 10. A song that makes you laugh / you find funny 11. A really good cover version 12. A song that reminds you of school days 13. A song from an artist that you are embarrassed to admit you like 14. Whatever it is, it's got to be funky 15. A song for those quiet rainy days 16. A song that no matter when you hear it makes you `Feelgood' 17. A song with the word `Look' in the title 18. From a member of the `Dead rockers society' 19. Your favourite Elvis song. 20. Wildcard - Hey, just put any song you like on!

This one appears to flow a bit better than mine did. Some great tracks on here, especially your Rainy Day & great cover version.

Nicely done!Here are the rules for the old one that I jumped on...Again, the rules. 1. Your favorite song with the name of a city in the title or text. 2. A song you've listened to repeatedly when you were depressed at some point in your life. 3. Ever bought an entire album just for one song and winded up disliking everything but that song? Gimme that song. 4. A song whose lyrics you thought you knew in the past, but about which you later learned you were incorrect. 5. Your least favorite song on one of your favorite albums of all time. 6. A song you like by someone you find physically unattractive or otherwise repellent. 7. Your favorite song that has expletives in it that's not by Liz Phair. 8. A song that sounds as if it's by someone British but isn't. 9. A song you like (possibly from your past) that took you forever to finally locate a copy of. 10. A song that reminds you of spring but doesn't mention spring at all. 11. A song that sounds to you like being happy feels. 12. Your favorite song from a non-soundtrack compilation album. 13. A song from your past that would be considered politically incorrect now (and possibly was then). 14. A song sung by an overweight person. 15. A song you actually like by an artist you otherwise hate. 16. A song by a band (whose members actually play instruments) that features three or more female members. 17. One of the earliest songs that you can remember listening to. 18. A song you've been mocked by friends for liking. 19. A really good cover version you think no one else has heard 20. A song that has helped cheer you up (or empowered you somehow) after a breakup or otherwise difficult situation.
