Earth, why have borders?
Well, I hate to bother you all but I decided that my gift this year will be a U2 CD made by me w/ 2 Cd's of their best songs. I need some input though. I'm looking at 32 songs. This is very tough!

I know your probably sitting there thinking "Damn, I'm definatley not responding to this thread". But, this is not the usual kind of thread, this is presents to make many people happy

Can anyone help me out? I want to make a very smooth CD. I've decided the opening song for CD2 is WTSHNN and I'm not sure for disk 1. Help me out...THANK you very much.

Nice editing job Nate *lol*
