I could very easily have some of the artists and titles juxtaposed and/or spelled incorrectly. I had a tough time reading Xian's handwriting.
My favorite and the most delightful surprise is the Bishop Allen song. I love it and of course Christian would have figured it out. If I could pick theme music, I supposed this would be it. Usually this is how my life feels. I also really dig the Band of Horses song and I think the Apostle of Hustle song is really going to grow on me. I already like it but think in about 5 listens I am going to love it. Jose Gonzales' version of Teardrop is beautiful. It might be hard to mess up that song though. Of course I also love the Siddely's (is that their name) song. I know that one is for me because I can't imagine Christian can make it through more than about 20 seconds of that song. There's some other really good stuff on there, the Fox Gloves song is beautiful, even if a touch depressing. The Hard Fi song is also very intense and dark but I love the cadence and know that is why this song is on the mix. The Dub Pistols is just silly. I can always count on Christian to make me laugh and keep things light. Thanks for that one pal. Same with the obligatory easy melody. It wouldn't be a mix for me without Travis or Coldplay I guess.
No La Luz pictures today. I am going straight from work to a Bar Association dinner and I think she will be in bed and (hopefully) asleep before I get home.

So, I don't know a single artist on that list -- I am officially uncool.
Me too, Kitty. Just for you, Aunt Julie, I'm going to put these tunes on my Zen. (If the tunes can tolerate being in the presence of all the disco hits from the 70s -- every last one!!)
