Considering I've been on MixTape now for a good... 5 months... I figured it was time to make a mix. This showcases the songs I'm currently obsessed with. Grab a pumpkin spice latte from your local Starbucks, light a cigarette, and watch the leaves fall.

Track 1 from The Orange Album
Length: 00:02:52
Year: 2006
Track Description:
No, my friends, the 80s are not striking back. But you'd think otherwise when you hear the "Sweet Dreams"-esque opening of Stefy's, "Chelsea". Up-tempo and sort of cliche, it starts the mixtape off with an energized bang.

Track 2 from Night Bugs
Length: 00:03:16
Year: 2002
Track Description:
The somewhat eerie effect of the opening is a welcomed transition from the end of "Chelsea". And then, moments later, the piano! Makes you want to chain-smoke and drive fast, doesn't it?

Track 3 from Simple Things
Length: 00:05:37
Year: 2001
Track Description:
Slowing it down a little more, Zero 7's "Desiny" takes us down a warmer, more sedated path. With a relaxing and catchy bridge, Sia Furler will have you singing her praises.

4 Royksopp : What Else Is There

Track 7 from The Understanding
Length: 00:05:17
Year: 0000
Track Description:
Another dream-like track, Royksopp's "What Else Is There" makes for a welcomed transition from Zero 7. A little more beat, a little more sass, but the same laid-back feel.

Track 3 from I'm Not Dead
Length: 00:03:50
Year: 2006
Track Description:
A little angrier than what we've heard so far, Pink brings us "Long Way To Happy". The synthesized beats and high-pitched piano chords serve as a perfect background for Pink's raspy, deep tones. Painful, heartwrenching, and utterly must-sing-along-able.

6 Mat Kearney : Crashing Down
Oregon-bred Mat Kearney brings us to tears on "Crashing Down". Pink made us angry, but Mat makes us sad. The s [...]

Track 3 from Nothing Left To Lose
Length: 00:04:13
Year: 2005
Track Description:
Oregon-bred Mat Kearney brings us to tears on "Crashing Down". Pink made us angry, but Mat makes us sad. The slow-paced opening guitar solo introduces us to a softer Chris Martin and we're instantly feeling like we should call our ex to apologize for letting things end the way they did. Think Grey's Anatomy, in music form.

Mandalay's haunting "Insensible" starts out slowly, but intensely. The drawn-out and hyper-enunciated lyrics m [...]

Track 10 from Solace
Length: 00:04:49
Year: 2001
Track Description:
Mandalay's haunting "Insensible" starts out slowly, but intensely. The drawn-out and hyper-enunciated lyrics make us compelled to sing along, painful though it may be. And who can resist those high notes on the chorus?

Track 5 from Tidal
Length: 00:05:57
Year: 1996
Track Description:
This song is a little friendlier than the last, and its jazzy feel instantly warms us up. A little dirty, a little sensual, Fiona certainly knows how to rock the lower octave of her range. Seeexy.

Track Description:
A perfect Autumn song, Tori Amos' "Winter" gets us in the mood for snow. Soft and sweet, Tori shines on this wonderful track from Little Earthquakes. Get your mittens, friends. Winter's on its way.

Track 17 from Hot Rocks 1964-1971
Length: 00:04:33
Year: 2002
Track Description:
And rounding out the mix, from the softness of Tori's voice, we have The Stones. I've always loved the opening "Oooooh"-ing, and think it's a great way to end the Autumn Journey. Spooky and raspy enough to be on the list, but rock-n-roll-ish enough to end it. Mick, we love you.
