if you were getting to know a person from fab and they asked you to do them a mix tape of ten songs that sum up your taste in music, what ten songs would you pick?

for me (mr) it would be:

bigmouth strikes again - the smiths

police and thieves - the clash

the snake - al wilson

all apologies (live at reading version) - nirvana

pills - new york dolls

peeled apples - manic street preachers

black math - the white stripes

rebellion (lies) - arcade fire

everyday people - sly and the family stone

atmosphere - joy division

Why thank you kindly. And here was me thinking it painted me as a rather morose kinda fella. I can't help it despite my sunny disposition I love melancholy music.

Damn it I missed out Disarm by the Smashing Pumpkins

Scot and Thursday we should hang out! I already told Scot I'd have Nathaniel Rateliffe but decided against it since he had him. Now I've posted I see Thursday has the same Ezra Furman song as me!

We'd enjoy a party with us as DJs

The hours you'd sweat over a mix tape carefully picking songs, choosing a running order, writing out the cards etc....only to get to 30 seconds from the end of recording the last song on one side of a tape, to hear that dreaded click of the recorder stopping because you'd run out of space!!
