After two months of tinkering, I'm finally satisfied with my summer music mix. (It twice violates the cardinal rule of mixtapes, allowing multiple songs by Wilco and Sufjan, but I simply don't care.) And so I offer "Some Words Come Easy: Mesh's Summer Mix 2004" in hopes that you too can download these tracks, burn them to a CD, and we can sit on our respective porches, sipping bourbon, thinking of each other.
01 Sufjan Stevens For the Widows in Paradise, For The Fatherless in Ypsilanti
02 The Shins New Slang
03 Neutral Milk Hotel The King of Carrot Flowers, Pt. 1
04 John Cale Paris 1919
05 The Magnetic Fields I Thought You Were My Boyfriend
06 Modest Mouse Float On
07 Franz Ferdinand 40
08 Santa Esmerelda Dont Let Me Be Misunderstood
09 Edwin Starr Agent Double-O-Soul
10 The New Pornographers The Body Says No

Dude...
I just made a summer mix for a friend and it included tracks 01, 02, 03, 11, and 18 (and I have at least half the other songs). With such an excellent taste in music, I'll have to check out the other songs myself.

hey you should be in our mix cd club! you get one mix cd a month from a member of your group, then the third month you make one and send it to the two other group members. then we switch groups.
