I listened to it every night on my stereo before I went to bed. And by stereo I mean, clock radio with tape deck. <br/>I would like to offer another category: Songs that every one of my friends put on every mix tape, ever. This would include Power of Two, Cecelia, and Oh Very Young. Which are all great songs yet only reinforce the fact of my nerdy, neo-hippie youth.

You're just not allowed to put more than one song per artist IN A ROW. Who taught you the cardinal rules? I think they were pulling your leg.<br/><br/>@coach: "Dorkiness sheathed in hubris is a pretty essential element in any mix."

The tracks "Obscene and Pornographic Art" and "Nick Cave Dolls" totally rocked my world. Forget the fact that the tape violated one of the primary rules of mixtapes (no more than one song per artist) and was, as it was eventually discovered, nearly a complete copy of a mixtape that the giver had received from a friend. Not cool. I have to say that the most unique and enticing songs I’ve ever received on mixtape have to be from Bongwater.
