Here it is you Weekly mix of songs that fit nicely onto an 80 minute CD. This mix is better than it looks.
1. One Step Beyond by Madness
Great name for a band and one the best openings to a song!
2. Fuel by Metallica
This song should start the Mix or another mix
3. Can U Dig It? by Pop Will Eat Itself
Late 80s techno is so tasty!
4. 19-2000 by Gorillaz
Dorky and fun song
5. Hay Baby by No Doubt
So what if I like this song
6. Paint It Black by The Rolling Stones
The beginning to this song gets me every time, hooked!
7. Chop Suey by System Of A Down
System Of A Down peaked on this song
8. Machinehead by Bush
Back in the day that this rocked it was a sign that nothing much in music was happening
9. Fat Lip by Sum 41
Punk for 1st graders but very funny
10.Agony by The Muffs
More punk for 1st graders
11.The Modern Age by The Strokes
Too many varieties . . .
12.The Middle by Jimmy Eat World
If they never released another song after this I would have been happy. This is from the album Bleed American Which some people though was negative in the wake of 9/11
13.Judy Is A Punk by The Ramones
It broke her parents heart too
14.Hungry Like A Wolf by Duran Duran
A song like this could only be recorded by Duran Duran nobody else could bring the earnestness to it.
15.Sandwiches by Detroit Grand Pubahs
This song is so weird but so inectious
16.Fever by Madonna
This is dumb dance song
17.Get The Party Started by Pink
This song is so much worse in retrospect than I once thought it was
18.Someday I Will Treat You Good by Sparklehorse
This song was stuck in my head for years before I commited to buying the CD
19.Judy Staring at The Sun by Catherine Wheel (with Tanya Donnelly)
Tanya sang with Throwing Muses, The Breeders and Belly
20.Trust by K.M.F.D.M.

This is what 4 barely legal girls covering Judas Priest sound like

Weekly Mix Tape Pt 23
Alright here's your listening fun for the week that will fit onto a CD if you are so inclined or a tape cassette with 45 minute sides each. The Story on this mix starts with Waiting for the man and carries through the end of the mix; it ain't hard to see what I'm getting at.
1. Cult Of Personalty by Living Colour
Great band with a limited future, what happened? They were an alternative band pre Nirvana who rocked; they should have lasted the 90s.
2. No Competition by Brassy
The singer, Muffin is John Spencer's sister
3. People That We Love by Bush
Originally called "Speed Kills" this single came from the album Golden State; it had an airplane silhouette on it. They changed the song title and removed the airplane as it was set to drop just after 9/11 2001
4. Cry by Creme & Godley
Two producers made there own song; it's a deep sound.
5. Down In It by Nine Inch Nails
Late 80s industrial gave birth to . . .
6. Burn Like Brilliant Trash (At Jackie's Funeral) by Machines of Loving Grace
early 90s industrial
7. Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go) by Garbage
This is not my favorite song about a transvestite
8. People Of The Sun by Rage Against The Machine
Rockers of the world Unite!
9. I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow by The Soggy Bottom Boys
Form O Brother, Where Art Thou?
10.Please Mr. Postman by Backbeat Band
This band was made up from dudes in Soul Asylum and Afghan Wigs; it's from the movie Backbeat
11.Our Lips Are Sealed by The Go-Go's
Started as a love letter and ended up a hit song
12.I'm Waiting For The man by The Velvet Underground
Here's where the story begins. VU, one of the coolest bands of all time.
13.Last Night by The Strokes
Let's welcome The Strokes into the mix tape anthology; they but out the best album of 2000, borrowing heavily from their New York City Rock ancestors.
14.Punk by Gorillaz
This is not punk
15.Something Else by Sid Vicious
This is not punk
16.Radio Radio by Elvis Costello
This is not punk
17.Breed by Nirvana
This is punk
18.Heroine by The 360's
One of the best unknown bands from Boston, I've been on the last car of the last train on the orange line, they ain't kiddin' around.
19.The Twelve Steps by Spiritualized
After the drugs you got to get to get clean
20.Shattered by The Rolling Stones
But then again, this is Rock n' Roll! Best song about New York Sucking!
21.Bennie And the Jets by Elton John
This song always reminds me of central park in the summer even though it was recorded in a studio in France.

Weekly Mix Tape Pt 22
Happy July! This Mix was not very good so I went back in time and rearranged the muthuh! Now it is a rock fest that gets awesome all the time! There are a couple bands that premier on this little list and I was very happy about it in the end!
Listen and enjoy
1. Bulls on Parade by Rage Against The Machine
This song is balls out from the beginning! Funny to think the group just about broke up before finishing this album
2. She Gives Me Love by The Godfathers
It's a badass song with that slick beat. How is this song better than there biggest single, "Birth, School, Work, Death"?
3. Everything Zen by Bush
It took me years to finally sorta' like this song, I don't get all pissy when I hear it anymore
4. California Love by 2 Pac & Dr. Dre
WEST SIDE! RIP 2 Pac
5. Clint Eastwood by Gorillaz
Let's welcome the Damon Albarn gone weird project; it's lovely.
6. Daughters of the Chaos by Luscious Jackson
This song was so cool in 1992 it gave ridiculous points if you liked it.
7. You're So Pretty - We're So Pretty by The Charletons
This band actually made some good music after their first album, here's some proof
8. Precious by The Pretenders
They rocked hard for us just once but it was enough to give them crazy cred!
9. Little Room by The White Stripes
Ladies and gentlemen the best band of the decade
10.Shut Your Mouth by Garbage
It's not a bad song but it's not as good anything off their second album
11.Sweet Dreams (Are made Of This) by Eurythmics
A perfect Song
12.Ray Of Light by Madonna
Madge keeps on dancing
13.On Fire by Spiritualized
This is not the Van Halen Song
14.Come On And Love Me by Lenny Kravitz
If I was a chick this song would make me go on and love Lenny
15.Photograph by Weezer
A nice little ditty that isn't the Def Leppard Song
16.Ain't No Sunshine by Bill Withers
Feel his agony! I do and I don't even know why.
17.Fallin' by Alicia Keys
Isn't this "Moonlight Senata"?
18.All Together Now by The Beatles
Let's get happy!
19.Burn Baby Burn by Ash
This is the last time Ash will appear on a mix. I think.
20.Because I Got High by Afroman
I'm kinda' embarrassed about having this song on here. It used to end the mix but it wasn't meant to be. There was a kid in my grade school who we used to call afroman.
21.Ultraviolet (Light My Way) by U2
Depressing end to good line up, no?

Weekly Mix Tape Pt 13
I don't know what the hell was going on with this mix unless I was just mixing to mix, who knows? There is some shitty music on here but that's usually the case. I blame the thoroughly un-American bands, enjoy!
1. Whole Lotta Rosie by AC/DC

A great cover of the Jesus and Mary Chain's song.3. A Song For The Lovers by Richard Ashcroft

Weekly Mix Tape Pt 5
There are more awesome tunes on this mix than you should be able to handle so listen with caution. We have many huge hits like "Sweet Emotion", The Beautiful People" and Wonderwall. and a couple lesser known gems like Morphine's "The Night" which was written just before singer and bassist Mark Sandman passed away on to the eternal B-side. Also Izzy Stradlin showing why he was so important to G'n'R with the frantic "Double talin' Jive"
In addition this mix has one of top 5 favorite love songs of all time, "Everlong"; I'll disclose the others at some point. Speaking of Top Fives, "Bedtime Story" is one of my top Five favorite Madonna songs, did you know that?
Lastly I think this ends the Buzzcocks appearances on my mixes.
1. 20th Century Boy by T. Rex
Sometimes I think T. Rex is the coolest band ever but then I listen to their songs and I feel I've been duped. This is one of Marc Bolan and the boys better efforts. It's cool.
2. Ever Fallen In Love by The Buzzcocks
Is this their best song or is it Orgasm Addict? So many bands have taken what the Buzzcocks did in the late 70s and made much more money than they ever did. Green Day
3. Sweet Emotion by Aerosmith
There are good songs, there are great songs and then there are songs that take on a life of their own, transcending everything, this is one of them.
4. Swallowed by Bush
I was never a huge Bush fan as they were just a grunge clone but I really liked this first single from their second album, Razorblade Suitcase.
5. The Night by Morphine
Posthumously released music is always eerie and often sad, this song is no different. A cool Boston band with a singer who once got stabbed in the chest while driving his cab but he didn't die then.
6. I'm A man by The Spencer Davis Group
Groovy British teenagers singing about being a man, brilliant.
7. Everlong by Foo Fighters
One of my ten favorite love songs . . . EVER!
8. Territorial Pissings by Nirvana
When people say Nirvana was punk I guess this is what they were talking about.
9. Rabbit by Lemonheads
Catchy punk songs about wanting to shag. Awesome!
10.Egg Man by The Beastie Boys
This is the rap reworking of their old ass song, Egg Raid on Mojo. It's on the album, Paul's Boutique which critics have a major chubby for but didn't sell as well as License To Ill.
11.You Should Be Dancing by Bee Gees
You want to know about disco? This is a good place to start. It's not as goofball as some of the genre but it definitely fits.
12.Push It by Garbage
"Make the beats go harder" Shirley sounds great on this track. Once Garbage was a band that mattered but then they began to suck it.
13.Natural One by Folk Implosion
Creepiness comes in all forms including this song off The Kids soundtrack.
14.Sleep Now In The Fire by Rage Against The Machine
Maybe they stopped being the only band that mattered by this point but it was the my favorite song off, The Battle for Los Angeles
15.Just by Radiohead
You Do it to yourself
16.Wonderwall by Oasis
Greatness of pop is right here.
17. She Bangs The Drum by Stone Roses
NME said The Stone Roses debut album was the best album ever, maybe they exaggerate but it is a beautiful collection of songs.
18.Words by the Monkees
I'm sure if I was in my twenties in the sixties I would have hated these guys but seeing as I wasn't even born then so I guess that's why I like them.
19.Double Talkin' Jive by Guns N' Roses
Izzy Stradlin' sang this one about the bands early days.
20.Bedtime Story by Madonna
Björk wrote this, can't you tell?
21.The Beautiful People by Marilyn Manson
This is the song that put him over the top and not just a one hit wonder with a cover as his most known song. Industrial and crazy Marilyn Manson sings about being angry even though it's not real, nothing he did was.
In addition this mix has one of top 5 favorite love songs of all time, "Everlong"; I'll disclose the others at some point. Speaking of Top Fives, "Bedtime Story" is one of my top Five favorite Madonna songs, did you know that?
