But For My Fool: fanmix (non-icons)

Wow. Long time, no post, but I digress! This mix was made for Round 19 at waywardmixes, which is themed "Meet the Mixer". I went back and forth over how exactly to put this thing together--should I use the meme format, or go with what I feel represents me the most, songs that marked big life moments, or...? You know. That kind of thing.

I love your song choices. I wish I knew a little more about why you chose them but that is mainly because I flail over any usage of a Matchbox 20 song and it makes me want to yell KINDRED SPIRITS or some such nonsense.

Thanks! I just added commentary partly because of your comment and also because it took me a while to try to explain it all.

I like quite a few of these artists and these are songs that tell a story of you.

interesting choice of song. really like the brightness of your artwork.

Gosh, this is wonderful. I didn't know a lot of the songs but so many of the sentiments behind them struck such a chord that it made me just sort of... flail. Your songs about anxiety were perfectly chosen and the things you said... yep, been there.

Let's just say that if I could write all my own music, I would create a triumvirate with Adele and Taylor Swift when it came to singing about love lost and/or completely ruined all about that one guy. This. Besides being a genius turn of phrase, this is the best expression of that feeling I’ve ever heard.

Great work!

Mad Season has always been one of my anthems, too. It's just great. This was a beautiful and intensely personal mix, thank you for sharing. The artwork fits the mix perfectly, without going overboard in editing. Great job!
