Well, she loves Bowie. I put "Let Me Lay Beside You" as my Bowie track for her, I don't think she's heard it. Also she had some group that did a cover of "Lay Lady, Lay" by Dylan, so I put the original on there. Her favorite band is Mates of State. Honestly as far as genres go, I wouldn't put much of a limit. I've tried to get her into more good hip hop, as I like some hip hop that gives out a smoother ambient beats (ie. A Tribe Called Quest, etc.) The vibe of the CD should be pretty easy going. I definitely have some rock on there, I'm just avoiding some stuff that may be too strong of a sound. I'm going to check out some of the tracks you guys have put down right now and I'll give you some more updates! Thanks a ton for contributing to my depressing make up attempts. I appreciate this more than you guys know. I'm sure I'll find some nuggets in what you're putting out there that there's no way I wouldn't have known about at all [thats why I love you all].

Actually, I found an acoustic version on youtube slowed down when I searched for this, and it's GREAT! It was a live studio acoustic thing, so hopefully I can find an mp3 of it slowed down like it is on the video. Maybe if worse comes to worse I can record it off the video but it will probably sound bad that way.

18) Winter 05' - Ra Ra Riot [The Rhumb Line]
This is a great list! I picked a bunch from out of here. I'm so glad I asked here, because you picked a lot stuff that I hadn't thought of, but have definitely heard. John Mayer is big in my book and I'm probably going to throw in "Comfortable"

1) Was on youtube with a soap clip, and I'm sorry to admit this but that was like swallowing a friggin brick, it hit a little too close to home. (Actually thats false, I was listening/watching Bitter the song not the album, though I assume its from the same album.)


Also, I'm loving this automerge thing. It's AWESOME.
