Okay, this mix might not have cool points attatched to it. And if anything, it's a real mix, but I didn't want to look up songs on the internet that would fit in with whatever might win because it has cool songs. Why? Because I'm the winner in my heart already because I'm really cool by nature.

So basically I just did songs I know and therefore songs I love.

tracklist

1	Mogwai : I Know You Are But What Am I?
	I think, to me, whether I like a song or not depends on 2 main things. One is what I feel when I hear it. Not [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 8 from Happy Songs For Happy People Length: 00:05:17 Year: 2003
	Track Description: I think, to me, whether I like a song or not depends on 2 main things. One is what I feel when I hear it. Not when I concentrate on what it's saying or what it's trying to accomplish, just what I feel. And the second is what I see when I hear it. Like in my head, what sort of story or scene appears when I hear it. That has definite impact on my liking of a song, and this song makes me see a thousand different scenes, all laying out before and after one another. I appreciate it. SHOW LESS
2	rainer maria : I Love You Too
	This was the first Rainer Maria song I ever heard and it is my favourite. I've always been a fan of hearing th [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 2 from s/t Length: 00:02:40 Year: 1996
	Track Description: This was the first Rainer Maria song I ever heard and it is my favourite. I've always been a fan of hearing the rawness in a song and being able to love it. This song is one that achieves a sort of perfection in that. It's difficult to have something like genuine rawness be perfected because that defeats the point, however I think it's achieved in this. SHOW LESS
3	Stevie Wonder : Too Shy To Say
	As if anyone can deny Stevie Wonder as an artist. I think the thing about this song is the smoothness in his v [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 3 from Fulfillingness' First Finale Length: 00:03:27 Year: 1974
	Track Description: As if anyone can deny Stevie Wonder as an artist. I think the thing about this song is the smoothness in his voice. It's actually pretty amazing when you listen to it and hear the words just never detatching. I'm not going to lie, I will sing along with this song every time it comes on. SHOW LESS
4	Elliott Smith : Say Yes
	I guess when you think about this song, it's kind of depressing. But it's one of those songs that covers up th [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 12 from Either/Or Length: 00:02:19 Year: 1997
	Track Description: I guess when you think about this song, it's kind of depressing. But it's one of those songs that covers up the impact of what it's saying with the actual music not sounding that down at all. His voice was always that sort of...I don't know, contradiction of apathetic neediness. But I like the fact that if you actually listen to what he says it's kind of like 'oh.' SHOW LESS
5	The Beatles : Yes It Is
	So I guess The Beatles are my most favourite band but I find that too many Beatles fans are way too ignorant f [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 2 from Anthology 2 (Disk 1) Length: 00:01:50 Year: 1996
	Track Description: So I guess The Beatles are my most favourite band but I find that too many Beatles fans are way too ignorant for me to be able to say that comfortably. Every Beatles song ever written is not good. In fact, there's not one album that has ALL good songs. This, however, is a good one. SHOW LESS
6	Bob Marley and The Wailers : Is This Love
	I'm sorry but what a stupid way to die. Anyway, this is a good song that pretty much everyone can listen to. A [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 3 from Kaya Length: 00:03:52 Year: 1978
	Track Description: I'm sorry but what a stupid way to die. Anyway, this is a good song that pretty much everyone can listen to. And it's really sweet. In fact this album is just basically all like that and listening to it makes ME feel loved. SHOW LESS
7	The Incredible Moses Leroy : L.O.V.E.
	This song is just really cute. It's almost at the point of being overly saccharine, but if you're in the mood [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 7 from Become The Soft.Lightes Length: 00:04:10 Year: 2004
	Track Description: This song is just really cute. It's almost at the point of being overly saccharine, but if you're in the mood for such an adorable song then it really does the trick. Unfortunately if you're not in the mood it's like a shot in the face with a large cannon. Or it makes you feel like stabbing people. SHOW LESS
8	Tokyo Rose : I Love You...Too
	Two things about this song. One, I know I already have a song named this on the mix and there's not really any [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 5 from Chasing Butterflies Length: 00:04:33 Year: 0000
	Track Description: Two things about this song. One, I know I already have a song named this on the mix and there's not really any excuse for that except that I worked from the bottom and the top at the same time and needed to attatch them and this song fit. Two, this song is lame I guess but I like it. I mean Tokyo Rose isn't really anything but the generic stuff we're all used to, but I just have always enjoyed this song and I have no idea why. But I guess that's part of the fun of music. SHOW LESS
9	Mel TormÃ© : Too Close For Comfort
	Mel TormÃ© did the freaking Christmas Song. He was a cool dude. But his voice was fabulous and this song is [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 1 from Compact Jazz Length: 00:04:03 Year: 0000
	Track Description: Mel TormÃ© did the freaking Christmas Song. He was a cool dude. But his voice was fabulous and this song is such a good higlight of his career I think. There are so many good points in this song...the sax solo, the bursts of brass, his staccato singing...the scat! It's fantastic. SHOW LESS
10	Beth Orton : Comfort of Strangers
	This is one of those singers that always sing like they just woke up. It's that sort of morning quietness and [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 5 from Comfort of Strangers Length: 00:03:20 Year: 2006
	Track Description: This is one of those singers that always sing like they just woke up. It's that sort of morning quietness and comfiness that you can't find in people who push their voices. It's very in right now. SHOW LESS
11	Frank Sinatra : Strangers In the Night
	Okay so another legend and I kind of feel this song is too close to Mel's song, but it just fits and if it wer [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 1 from Strangers In the Night Length: 00:02:38 Year: 1966
	Track Description: Okay so another legend and I kind of feel this song is too close to Mel's song, but it just fits and if it weren't supposed to be in an order, I'd separate these two more. That said, this is a different type of jazz piece and it's got lots of woodwinds in it. And it's just a good song. SHOW LESS
12	The Smashing Pumpkins : A Night Like This
	It's kind of a pet peeve of mine, probably comes from being a h'kor beatles fan, when people say that covers j [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 5 from Bullet With Butterfly Wings Length: 00:03:39 Year: 1996
	Track Description: It's kind of a pet peeve of mine, probably comes from being a h'kor beatles fan, when people say that covers just suck without listening. This cover is, in my opinion, superb. There aren't many pumpkins songs I'll just sit down and have the urge to listen to, like an itch, but this is one. And it happens to be a cover. So nyahh. SHOW LESS
13	Tracy Chapman : This Time
	I used to tell everyone Tracy Chapman was my best friend. That would be really awesome...I'd talk about how we [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 9 from Crossroads Length: 00:03:43 Year: 1989
	Track Description: I used to tell everyone Tracy Chapman was my best friend. That would be really awesome...I'd talk about how we hang out all the time. It was a lie. I had an argument about whether Tracy Chapman could possibly go after the pumpkins on this mix because it would sound bad, but actually it sounds good. It might even be the best transition on this mix. SHOW LESS
14	Cyndi Lauper : Time After Time
	Oh Cyndi Lauper and your singable songs. Everyone knows this song and everyone better love it. That is all. SHOW MORE
	Track 4 from She's So Unreal Length: 00:04:03 Year: 1983
	Track Description: Oh Cyndi Lauper and your singable songs. Everyone knows this song and everyone better love it. That is all. SHOW LESS

	Track 6 from How Strange, Innocence Length: 00:09:55 Year: 2000
	Track Description: This is a nice ending because my mixtape also stops here, along with time. As varied as the entire thing was, it sort of comes full circle in reflection to the Mogwai song at the front. SHOW LESS
