I am inordinately happy with the mix I made for my recent CD swap, and I've actually been listening to it quite a bit. Not surprising, I suppose, since the only theme was "some of your favorite music". There was so much I wanted to put on the disc that just didn't fit, and trimming it down took longer than creating the disc in the first place. It's not entirely representative of my musical tastes mostly because I listen to a ton of different stuff that just doesn't work well together on a CD. Here's what I ended up with on the final pass:

Track	Artist
Every Breath You Take/Theme from Peter Gunn	Henry Mancini and The Police
Battle Without Honor or Humanity	Tomoyasu Hotei
Lebanese Blonde	Thievery Corporation
Queremos Paz	Gotan Project
La Camisa Negra	Juanes
Sugarfoot Congress	Boiled in Lead
Tobacco Island	Flogging Molly
Number Six Driver	Eddie from Ohio
Extra Ordinary (Live)	Better Than Ezra
Nothing Matters When We're Dancing	The Magnetic Fields
Here I Dreamt I Was an Architect	The Decemberists
Weather With You	Crowded House
Lover, You Should've Come Over	Jeff Buckley
Center of the Sun	Conjure One (featuring Poe)
Temple	Beverly Klass
Alice	Venus Hum
Underwear Goes Inside the Pants	Lazyboy
Coal Not Dole	Oysterband

If any of the other participants want to post their tracklist here, feel free.

Now, on to rivka's holiday music swap. This one is much harder.

Well, you could ask Pat if you could borrow the CD. =)

Thanks so much for posting this. I thoroughly enjoyed your mix, but - as was the case with most of these, happily - could only identify about four of the songs!

Yes, I can't believe I was so lame as not to include this when I sent the discs out. I'd like to blame it on the fact that I was getting ready for a trip, but that's not much of an excuse :)

Glad you enjoyed it!
