Weekly Mix Tape Pt 43

Happy Thanksgiving you Jive Turkeys
There are some odd 808s gems dug up and given to you from me but that's because I was searching for songs I used to kind of like. What's strange to me is that some of the new songs Nth Degree and Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt and Chords have an 80s feel.

find these songs and enjoy

1. Beat So Lonely by Charlie Sexton
Later Charlie went on to form the Arch Angels
2. Nth Degree by Morning Wood
Welcome to the mixes Morningwood
3. Gold Dust Woman by Fleetwood Mac
This is creepy song; it kind of gets in the skin. IS this the first Fleetwood Mac song to be tossed in here? It might be.
4. Life's What you Make It by Talk Talk
This is the other song released by the band who brought you, It's My Life
5. New Year's Day by U2
This song makes me cold
6. Chords by Madelia
From the "good song you've never heard" department
7. Llorando by Rebeka Del Rio
Featured in the film Mulholland Drive in a very freaky scene

8. And We Danced by The Hooters

As far as I know they have nothing to to do with the restaurant

9. Give me Novacaine by Green Day

I don't know why they spelled incorrectly but they did

10.Evil and a Heathen by Franz Ferdinand

They used to call songs like these, "deep tracks"

11.Got The Time bu Joe Jackson

When you listen to the speed of this song it makes perfect sense that Anthrax covered it.

12.Los Angeles by X

She had to leave Los Angeles but alas she never did

13.The Stand by The Alarm

Some people called them the next U2

14.City Noise by Scarling

More Goth rock!

15.Let the Music Do The talking by Aerosmith

I don't think they were totally clean at this moment as this was from the album right before Permanent Vacation.

16.Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt by We Are Scientists

A song about being young and lusty

17.What Katie Did by The Libertines

British garage band rock

18.You're So Vain by Carly Simon

That sun of a gun, Warren Beatty never felt so loved

19.Plowed by Sponge

Kind of dark and nebulous in meaning

20.Sneakyville by The Lmonheads

This song is apparently all Charles Manson quotes but I can't confirm this

21.Lawyers In Love by Jackson Brown
A great song about the 80s that includes a good howl and witty lyrics

MIx Tape Challenge

There's a local club that sponsors a Mixtape exchange/challenge which upon my learning of this info sent me into music knowledge and organization fits.
