So, how are people enjoying this? I'm throwing it open to feedback. I'd also appreciate feedback on my mixes; I have no idea if anyone has even listened to them, so let me know what you like/don't for future compilations. I'll also take suggestions for future themes, even though I think I'm pretty well set til about summer.

I like it. I haven't had time to listen to everyting I've collected so far, but I'm getting there.

I had posted some suggestions last week, but that was before your thread got deleted and then revived. I was too lazy to post them again at the time: music from your childhood, from your 'past life' (good or bad), karaoke, and world music.

Well, to be fair, I haven't posted any feedback on anyone else's. I wasn't sure if people were holding back or what. But between being sick and job hunting, I haven't even had time to listen to last week's.

Thanks for the comment, yg!

I'm actually really excited to listen to this one of yours... I'm sticking around work, waiting for it to download so I can listen to it on the way home.

I'm rubbish at doing themed compilations, although I did think about putting something together for this one. I could probably do something for next week's one (I was thinking about doing an anti-Valentine's mix anyway, but not specifically angry love). But, I do like the idea of Mixsion Impossible.

I was really hoping to beat mischeif to the punch, since I knew that we'd have quite a bit of overlap.

It's not as much as I'd thought it'd be, though....

heheh

I'm glad to see people are enjoing it so far. Every week's MI is like a warm hug. But it's been kinda time consuming, so I might have to slow it down to every two weeks after next Thursday. Is that ok/better for everyone? Gives people a little more time to listen to others' music as well.

I've got one coming when I get a chance to upload it. First time I've done a mix in years, so you got me excited about this sort of thing again, Eide. Makes me feel young and crap, so yeah good.

Is yousendit ok? (I know you prefer the others, but I afeered of change.)

But it's been kinda time consuming, so I might have to slow it down to every two weeks after next Thursday.

Curious, Eide. How has it been time-consuming for you? Are you doing more than making your own mix and posting threads to announce/share mixes? Is it anything anyone else can help with?

Mostly, mp, it's keeping up with the downloaded music. But if I wasn't home from work sick today, I wouldn't have mine done til at least tomorrow.

Well, if you need help, let me know. My guess is that interest will wane at some point regardless, but it seems that's even more likely if it goes to bi-weekly.

Anywho. Here's mine:

1. The Eyeliners - Think of Me
2. Dixie Chicks - Goodbye Earl
3. Susan Tedeschi - It Hurt So Bad
4. Bonnie Raitt - I Will Not Be Broken
5. Patty Griffin - Every Little Bit
6. Jolie Holland - Old Fashioned Morphine
7. The Runaways - Cherry Bomb
8. Shelby Lynne - Gotta Get Back

I went kinda wacked-out crazy here, because I had to include girls with acoustic guitars, girls with country guitars, girls with '50s guitars, some of my obscure musical crushes with more guitars than they usually use, the Queen of Soul with guitars, two guy groups singing about girls (while playing guitars) and a guitar-less collaboration between the 60s' strangest 'girl' singer and a famous disc jockey I once worked for. Yeah, some of this stuff is like, totally cliche-like, omigod, but here they are: ALL 47 TRACKS. (Would've been 48, but I dropped a duplication with Eide's list.)

Total Coelo - I Eat Cannibals

No. Just no.

come on, grabbingsand, it's not the worst song in the mix... unless you've never heard it and you're just reacting to the title...
