Forged in 2006 this mix was all over the map. There are good time oldies and the biggest song around at the time. enjoy I think I started to attempt to put more emphases on current material in this mix but I don't totally recall.
The beginning of this song reminds me of the Pixies last album but then Muse get back to their Radiohead/Queen comfort Zone.
2. Reptile by The Church
In High School this song had a place on my favorites list even more than The Church's bigger hit Under The Milkyway
3. Moving In Stereo by The Cars
You may remember this song from commercials and Fast Times at Ridgemont High
4. Fascination Street by The Cure
This is a sonic attack by broodingest band in the world. This was off The Cure's American, Commercial breakthrough album Disintegration which is an epically depressing piece of work.
5. Illuminated by The 360's
Boston's very own grunge band
6. Song With A Mission The Sounds
Catchy and synthy, the eighties never died in Viking country.
7. Cherry Bomb by The Runaways
Tough L.A. girls . . . L.A. Girls trying to be tough. Without them we never would have Joan Jett or Lita Ford; go watch the movie it's worth it.
8. Celebrity Skin by Hole
Hole's follow up to Live Through This was Celebrity Skin, Courtney Love didn't write the songs for either of those albums.
9. Crazy by Gnarles Barkley
They wone tons of grammy's for this as it was a huge, huge song for this band. You might categorize them as one hit wonders but both DJ Danger Mouse and Cee-Lo Green have done other successful things. Even The Racanteurs played this song live.
10.Replacement Man by Dan Sartain
Welcome Mr. Sartain and his rockabilly guitar to the Mix land.
11.Too Drunk to Fuck by Dead Kennedys
Infamous and hilarious
12.Big Pimpin' by Jay-Z & UGK
Please pay your respects to Jahovah
13.Promiscuous by Nelly Furtado feat. Timbaland
I don't like this song but I wanted something pop oriented and current here.
14.Spin The Black Circle by Pearl Jam
With Pearl Jam's return that year I got excited for older songs of theirs; this one's from Vitology.
15.Victrola by Veruca Salt
From the girls who gave you The Seether
16.Public Warning by Lady Sovereign
The biggest midget in the game, she gor some flack for putting on a pour live shows but this track is cool; this is her first appearance.
17.Young Turks by Rod Stewart
Disco tempted everyone, even the Scottish.
18.Ruby Tuesday by The Rolling Stones
This was once my favorite tones song
19.Walk Like an Egyptian by The Bangles
The band's biggest hit? Maybe that was Manic Monday
20.Everybody Wants You by Damone
A band who cover's Billy Squire is brave
21.Don't Change by INXS
This was the song that INXS ended their concerts with
knights of cydonia is a great song!
