Edit 8/8, 9:15 am: Ok, I'll stop writing my posts in invisible ink. Sorry about that ;). My original post:

Besides the free shows, one of my favorite parts of this job is that I get to talk about music. I put together a summertime mix CD for myself. The tracklist:

1. Roy Ayers: "Sunshine"
2. Tokyo Police Club: "The Nature of the Experiment"
3. Jay-Z: "Sunshine" (Ratatat Remix)
4. Belle and Sebastian: "Another Sunny Day"
5. Blue Oyster Cult: "Don't Fear the Reaper" (Because what this CD needs is more cowbell!)
6. Sufjan Stevens: "The Henry Buggy Band"
7. I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness: "According to Plan"
8. Razorlight: "In the Morning"
9. Canasta: "Slow Down Chicago"
10. Jurassic 5 feat Dave Matthews Band: "Work it Out"
11. Rolling Stones: "Under My Thumb"
12. Stevie Wonder: "Uptight"
13. Blackalicious: "Make you Feel that Way"
14. Yeah Yeah Yeahs: "Way Out
15. Guided by Voices: "My Kind of Soldier"
16. De la Soul, Handsome Boy Modeling School: "If it Wasn't for You"
17. Shakira: "Tortura"
18. Nas: "Where y'all at?"
19. Jose Gonzalez: "Love will tear us apart" (Joy Division cover)

Ok, there you have it. My summertime mixtape. Hey, if you want, post some songs that you're listening to right now.

Is this like a zen moment? No actual content, just a title? Or is it just an incredibly short list which defies sight?
Nice playlist! Reminds me of a bash.org quote: (http://bash.org/?3630) [quote] [blazemore] omg i love this song [blazemore] Now playing: Unknown Artist - Track 2 @ 128 Kbps. (0:47/3:24) [Javi] blazemore: yeah, that's a bad ass song [/quote]
Sorry about that gents ;)
Hey, nice mix you got there. Look forward to hearing your Zune insight over the next few months.
Your opinon--Shakira in English or Shakira in Spanish? I've gotta say I like Ojos Asi more in Spanish, but Suerte (I may have gotten this title wrong) more in English. The only thing in rotation for me right now is Old/New Breaking Benjamin. One of the most "listenable" bands out there. Every album is 8/10 for every track. No 10's on there, but no 2's either. Good stuff.
I like Shakira in spanish more. Isn't breaking benjamin the band featured in Halo 2? They're pretty good man.
Stuff I can't stop listening to... I Am Over It - Dandy Warhols So Lonely - Twista feat. Mariah Loverman - Metallica And any song by Apathy.
North Mississippi Allstars... need I say more?
Nice to see you have an open mind to music, I appreciate that. Not a bad playlist if I might say :)
Yes, Breaking Benjamin was on the H2 soundtrack which was my first intro to them. All 3 of their albums are great including the song on the soundtrack..
Ditto to #2, Tokyo Police Club. That's got to be the most engaging sub-30 minute album I've heard in ages. My favorite new artist so far this year.
I've actually been going back to an oldie but a goodie... Stroke 9 - Little Black Backpack Woot! :P You guys should include that video for pre-loaded content!
