description:
I have developed a new hobby. I cruise the shared iTunes music libraries on my campus, looking for those with songs I adore and don't have. I listen to the songs. I figure out who's library it is and look them up on Facebook and get thier screenname.
I wait til a night when I'm feeling brave, perhaps with a glass of Jack Daniels next to me, and send them the ultimate pick-up line: "I like your music, wanna trade mix tapes?"
This is a mix of songs in libraries that made me convinced I needed to befriend that person, avoid that person or just songs that proved why shared libraries should be listed by student life as a perk of living on campus.

Track Description:
I love mash-ups to a disturbing degree...the problem comes when I only know the classical song it's being mashed against and not what the original is. Plus, the occasional mainstream rap song can make a strong statement when you want your hippie friends to leave. SHOW LESS

It's not rare that I'm listening to somebody's library and leave the room to get dinner, and when I get back to have a random band playing that I then adore. Happened here when a morning of listening to Modest Mouse had me coming back to hear a whole new band to love. SHOW LESS

Track Description:
I love looking at the campus deejay's playlist because they always write random facts in the notes section. Did you know that Marvin Gaye wanted to see if one of his "Gold Records" was really a gold record of his, so he played it on a turntable to learn it was a Supremes record spray painted? SHOW LESS
