Frankenmix for November! On the very last day of November, ftw. :)

For the most part these songs are pretty straightforward, and a pretty even mix of songs that are pretty and songs that are way fun. If you have a question about why I picked a certain track or a link doesn't work, let me know. Tracks available individually below, or all are downloadable from this page.

1. A song for seduction: A Perfect Circle - When The Levee Breaks
This is a just listen. It's not about the lyrics but the sound of the song, which is slow and driving and hot as hell.

2. A song of succor: Snow Patrol - Run
(Even if it's just for a/ few days/ making up for all this mess)

3. A song of lustration: Sarah Mclachlan - Prayer Of St Francis
I had to look it up, but apparently lustration means the performance of a purificatory ceremony, and this song seemed appropriate.

4. A song of quietude: The Daylights - If Words Were Bullets
(If words were bullets in a gun/I probably would have killed someone)
I was defining this as quiet-tude: quiet songs with attitude.

5. A song with moxie: Stroke 9 - Kick Some Ass!
(How many people want to kick some ass?/ I do, I do!)
:D This song is SUPER. I really like it.

6. A song for detox: Nerf Herder - Sorry
(Sorry I showed up at your party/Sorry I drank up all the Bacardi)
A depressingly funny song/funnily depressing song.

7. A song for a safari: Bruce Springsteen - Jungleland
Honestly more for the title than anything else. A great epic song nonetheless.

8. A song for bitching: Get Set Go - I Hate Everyone
(And the people that I know, I hate you all/And the people that I don't, I hate you all)
Another very fun song. :))

9. A song for sleeping: Damien Rice - Sleep Don't Weep
This is off his new album 9.

Frankenmix for June!

Basically, each month calikali puts out ten prompts for songs and anyone who wants to play can, so I encourage all of you to give it a try! It's pretty fun. :)

I'm also trying out a new upload host, box.net--let me know what you think. I like it because you can remove your files when you want, and not before, and also because those downloading the file can listen to the song first and decide if they like it or not.


( 16 songs under the cut! )

Let me know if you download anything, yeah?
