It seems I haven't posted in this thread for almost a year.
And the mix I'm presenting now isn't even a new one, but one from late last year (December).
Still, I don't want to withold it from you all. Be warned though, there isn't much English on the mix (if any!).

Inspired by the Coldplay/Ashcroft collaboration at Live 8, I decided to put together a CD of Britpop and almostBritpop bands. I think it's rather :drool: , even if I did include what is one of Radiohead's least imaginative songs ever. I found it suited the mix. Franz Ferdinand's "Matinee" and Robbie Williams' "Millenium" were cut. That makes me sad. We need 90 min CDRs.

1. The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony

3. The Libertines - What Became of the Likely Lads? (single mix)
4. Suede - So Young
5. Placebo - Every You, Every Me

LOVE that song. :) Whole album, actually.

So I'm making a mix for someone who basically stopped their music exploration at pearl jam. Loves that sort of thing and tom petty. If anyone has bright ideas on what would appeal to that sort of music fan, I'm open to suggestions...

so far, I think I"m going with neil finn, nick drake, arcade fire, stars...the requiste elbow, doves, starsailor, charlatans, seafood...
