Elissa 2003
There was this girl I had a crush on for most of Spring 2003. We went to concerts together. I made her a mixtape, because we all know that mixtape=love (these guys think so too).
I found a copy I’d made yesterday while organizing my CDs. I’d forgotten about it completely but now I’m listening to it at work. I probably made this early May 2003.
The tracklist:
- Lion’s Mane – Iron and Wine
- Ohio – Damien Jurado
- New Partner – Palace Brothers
- Accident – Clem Snide
- I See a Darkness – Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy
- Most of October, All of November – P:ano
- Silvery Light of a Dream, Pt II – the Apples in stereo
- If We Can Land a Man on the Moon, Surely I Can Win Your Heart – Beulah
- Hideaway – Olivia Tremor Control
- A Duel Will Settle This – Mates of State
- Sleep the Clock Around – Belle & Sebastian
- Summer is Coming – Matt Pond PA
- Away, Into the Light – One AM Radio
- Who Am I? – Seldom
- Bad Diary Days – Pedro the Lion
- No Solid Ground – ms. john soda
- This Place is a Prison – The Postal Service
- Consequence – The Notwist
- Ruby’s Wishes – Unwed Sailor
- Stanley Kubrick – Mogwai
It’s a nice mix of songs. I still listen to and like most of these songs and bands quite a bit.
I made it on a friend’s computer because I didn’t have a laptop yet so I copied all the songs to the computer individually and then made the CD from that. She loved it; she bought three CDs of bands on the CD within a week because she liked them so much.
She was not smitten with me, though.
