I love a good duet, especially if it's male/female. This is the first in a 3 volume mix I made of collaborative efforts. There isn't one song on the mix I dislike and I've had a good response from family and friends about it so far. It may take me a while to get all three volumes up here, but fear not, they will all be made eventually!

Track Description:
The Postal Service is one of those bands I like in small doses, but this duet between Ben Gibbard and Jen Wood is, well, enjoyable. "I feel I must interject here" is a great lyric and "Will someone please call a surgeon who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart" seems like they're taking the piss, and I like that. At least I hope they're taking the piss. :/ SHOW LESS

Track Description:
The version of this cover song I'm using is the slow one, dubbed "The Bonnie Parker" version. I prefer it to the faster-paced one and it fits much better on the mix. This song replaced "Tango Ballad" by Ute Lemper and Neil Hannon at the last minute. I'm still not entirely sure it was the right choice ... oh well. I much prefer the original, but everyone's heard that one. SHOW LESS

There is so much love on this mix! I was sold with something from The Best Bit ep, but then you added The J&MC with Hope, PJ and Thom, Kristin, Moz and Siouxsie (on paper this is a tremendous duet, but it isn't quite what I'd hoped for), John and Neko, Chan and "BONNIE AND CLYDE"! That Luna cover is worth five for me. Outstanding mix.
