Lyra, I'd suggest a classic: "I Only Have Eyes For You" by the Flamingos, which is possibly my favorite song of all time.

One of the lullabies I sing to Emmett.

More green eyes: "Pale Green Eyes" - Reivers/Zeitgeist? Silos? One of those indie jangle bands.

Also there's a standard titled "Green Eyes" done by tons of folks including Anita O'Day.

Erykah Badu has a "Green Eyes" song too.

Mix is in the mail!! I changed four songs at the last second. It came in at 79:50 and I had to take all the 2 second pauses inbetween songs out.

I am glad Anne had the questions about iTunes and Steph was forthcoming with the answers or I would have forgotten all about the sound check box thing.

Until my liner notes go up - here is my whitefonted song list: no peeking Lyra Jane - unless you want to, of course.

Candy Fish - Tina F's mix

Oops, the line breaks take off the spoiler font.

Yes they do! Whoops. This was a good way to learn that I guess.

Good GRIEF. I finally got my computer to burn the mix--I had created four useless frisbees first. Grrrr. Computer kept freezing in the middle.

So, package will go out tomorrow.

I don't think I know a single song on Tina's mix. I might recognize one or two if I heard them, but...eeesh.

I know one of Tina's songs. I even have the album. Of course it's her love the song, hate the band tune, but hey.

Jayhawks, "Blue" - Tomorrow The Green Grass

I adore this song (nearly used it for my color song category).

Love songs? "Tanglewood Tree" by Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer, off their CD of the same name. And "Into the West" (from the ROTK soundtrack) is my current favorite love song.

Edit: I finally sent my CD off today! It's still slightly imperfect, but much less so than before.

Hello, music nerds!

In case this is a spoiler, I'm whitefonting: Tina, Drakkar Sauna, I'm so jealous. They were the talk of the Winfield list right after the fest. The folks in the Grove loved 'em. Did you hear them there?

On the love song front might I suggest Pig by Dave Matthews Band, Sail Away and This Year's Love by David Grey

I have the Hec-u-mix!! I am listening to it right now AIreallyFG!!

I don't think I know a single song on Tina's mix. I might recognize one or two if I heard them, but...eeesh.

eeesh not!! I made it very new-to-me listener friendly. The really eclectic songs are very short.

katefate! hi! I did see Drakkar Sauna at Winfield and they are all bartenders here in Lawrence - so, with my drinking habits, I see them quite often - they have really improved a lot already since Winfield. Sigh..... Winfield.
