I want your compilation !

We all make our own compilation CDs, or favorite songs "Playlists".

Back in the day I used to trade CD-Rs of compilations with buddies and it was nice to listen to someone elses personal "best of" mix.

I'd like to hear from you. Do you have your own cd mix albums ? What's on them ? I want to make some new comps, but don't want to put my own together - I want your compilations. (No, I don't want you to record them for me, just list the songs for me - I prolly already have the album, and if not, I can get the song one way or another)

Here's an example = I made a mix years ago I titled "Sanctified Compositions" which included:

01 The Undecided -choices
02 Tragedy Ann -waste
03 The Waiting -look at me
04 Shorthanded -forever yours
05 Plankeye -BC
06 Love Coma -tomorrow takes too long
07 Deliriou5 -Deeper
08 Huntingtons -no pool party tonight
09 Joy Electric -Keep Him in your thoughts
10 The Dingees -Could be worse
11 MWS -Love me good
12 Painted orange -shake me
13 Slick shoes - angel
14 Grammatrain -Jonah
15 Hangnail -making history
16 Plankeye -open house
17 Switchfoot - company car
18 Smalltown Poets -Everything I hate
19 Silage -Giggle
20 Off the record -good times
21 Heartbeat -Jesus, Il sera de retour
22 Supertones -resolution

I love listening to these mixes. Now I want to listen to yours. Start listing as many of your home-made albums as possible!

PS - don't wanna sit there and type all the songs ? Don't have a file-to-text program to do it for you ? You can always "Print Screen", paste in "Paint", save and post the jpeg here. Just a thought.

Compilation? Isn't that what the shuffle feature is for on my MP3 player? I haven't made a mix tape or CD for myself since I was probably 20.

Surely you have playlists though ?

I've tried shuffling a bunch of complete albums, but you always get some dud songs that are unbearable- thus the need for custom playlists, or the 20 year old concept of a compilation

I have a playlist of songs for my youth group, but I am usually more album oriented. If I am listening to music, I prefer to hear a single album by a particular artist.

When I started to listen to Christian music I have made a few compilation CD from the stuff I had.
Now I'm more album oriented.

I have like 30 mixes I made years ago, I called them Ahlitah's Bucket Mixes.

I think I still have them somewhere.

here is one of them:

Bucket Mix 22

01 - Wisdom Call - Through Fire
02 - Liaison - Up At Night
03 - Unchained - You Answered Me
04 - X Of Eden - Believe

Perry is a CDN band of the poppish alt rock genre.

http://perryandthepoorboys.com/media.html

he has worked with Mike Roe etc.

and yes I like them! each album has a different feel too it.

I like the 'No Fear in Love' album the best.

just look at these lryics to one of his songs

Live Like You Mean It
(Lee Valley, SD)


Get up in the morning say "God I think I'm ready to go
Anywhere you want me to
And talk to people I don't even know"
If my friends all think I'm crazy
I guess I have no friends at all
And when I tell them what Jesus said
It's like talking to a stone wall


Sitting in my history class
Can't believe what we're talking about
Some monk a long time ago
Watching gladiators screams:
"Are there none devout?"
Then he jumped into the arena
All the thumbs turned down for more
I can't help but wonder what I will be remembered for


Live like you mean it...


I often think about a friend who lives on the poor side of L.A.
And two people sleep on his porch
Because they have no other place to stay
Miss social worker thinks he's a sucker
To give them such a bed
I know Jesus is glad to have a place
To lay his head


Live like you mean it...


The big billboard says 'live up to what you expect'
And if your going to be happy
Then take all you can get
But you'll never be happy just by serving yourself
'cause when you get what you want
There is always something else
