mix

[eirias]

I found an unlabeled mix CD containing some songs I don't know; here's the approximate track listing.


1. An amusing 80s-sounding song including the line "You read me my rights and then you said 'Let's go'"
2. A Counting Crows song I don't know, including the line "She is standing by the water, as her smile begins to curl"
3. Something unfamiliar including the line "We've broken down and broken up so much that I am numb"
4. Something by the Smiths or Morrissey; the words begin nearly a minute into the song. "She said , 'He never really looks at me; I give him every opportunity'"
5. R.E.M., "She Just Wants to Be"
6. "Mercedes Benz" -- not sure who's singing it (live recording, sounds too recent to be Janis Joplin)
7. Counting Crows -- the live Mr. Jones (which makes me think this is probably vja2's mix...)
8. Somebody other than R.E.M. -- Nightswimming, also live
9. "you said 'Punchbuggy Red' and punched me in my left eye"?
10. Another Counting Crows song...
11. R.E.M. -- "My public service announcement followed me home the other day" -- don't know this one but it's amusing! Oh; is this called "We All Fall Down"? Good song!
12. That terribly haunting song about Wendy... more suspicion that this is vja2 ;)

Sound familiar to any of you? I was in a mix exchange some years ago but apparently I didn't keep stuff organized very well...

heh. I have the original Concrete Blonde album with "Tomorrow Wendy" on it. Memories.......

I have no idea if it's vinay or not, but he gets props if so

Yeah, he's well known for his Tomorrow Wendy obsession in particular, and Concrete Blonde in general, though that's more of a historical thing than anything else, I'm not sure if he still listens to them regularly.
