Well I wasn't going to enter this contest because two people I know died around the same time last week. Both of their funerals were on the same day but I only went to one because I can't handle two funerals in one day and I hadn't seen Pat in about 7 years of so. God love you Pat.

After going to Mopsi's 'funeral' yesterday I was inspired to make a tribute mix for her and I can't deny the bizarre timing of this contest and her death.

Mopsi wanted a disco instead of a funeral. So i went to her disco funeral last night. I haven't seen her in about 3 years. It's weird how you don't really miss someone until they die and you realise you're never ever going to see them again.

I found out Mopsi released a few albums in the 80s at her 'funeral'. WHY DIDN'T I EVER PICK YOUR BRAIN ABOUT YOUR FASCINATING LIFE?

Mopsi, always shocking and spectacular in every way. God Bless.

P.S. The cover art wouldn't work but i kinda like it black anyway

3 David Bowie : Let's Dance
Ok that's enough crying. Mopsi wanted us to dance dammit.

I requested this at her disco. I would have picked another Bowie track but all the Mr. DJ man had of Bowie was a best of... which means his singles from the 80s. It's all good, this song is gold and nammy and david and i carved it up.

I also found out at her disco that she adored Bowie. HOW DID I NOT KNOW THAT?!?!?

Sounds like a helluva lady, this Mopsi.

"In Between Days" is my favorite song by the Cure.

Were her records recorded under the name Mopsi?
