description:
adoration and sadness are not at opposite ends of some scale. I've known these feelings to be more similar than we've been led to believe. they are the feelings of longing, of waiting for a second chance, of unrequital. such feelings grow by what they feed upon. songs of this nature are almost always odes.
this mix was collated from twelve such songs (according to the mixtape rules) but with a focus on repeatability. no one song dominates yet together they seem to capture the feeling that I've yet to find a word for.
