i eat music everyday - doublefourtime's cd mix exchange completed!
A while back, I signed up to do a CD mix exchange hosted by doublefourtime, and although I'm cutting it close to the deadline, I've finally done mine. This mix is a meeting of two of my favorite things, so it was quite entertaining to make. Anyone can download it of course, but this was made especially for you, bri_nizzle, so I hope you enjoy it!
Miscellaneous notes:
i eat music everyday:
a full-flavored mix of food and song
download zip (98 MB) here
printable CD art (300 kb) here
1. Banana Pancakes - Jack Johnson
this song is meant to keep ya
from doing what your supposed to
like waking up too early
maybe we can sleep in
I'll make you banana pancakes
pretend like its the weekend now
2. Bowl Of Oranges - Bright Eyes
if the world could remain within a frame like a painting on a wall
then I think we would see the beauty
then we would stand staring in awe
at our still lives posed like a bowl of oranges
like a story told by the fault lines and the soil
3. Cornflake Girl - Tori Amos
never was a cornflake girl
thought that was a good solution
hangin' with the raisin girls
she's gone to the other side
4. Tom's Diner - Suzanne Vega
"it is always nice to see you"
says the man behind the counter
to the woman who has come in
she is shaking her umbrella
and I look the other way as they are kissing their hellos
I'm pretending not to see them
instead I pour the milk
5. Alphabet Soup - Bell X1
the only one talking now
is my alphabet soup
and he's on a loop
what's that you're saying to me
tomato coated spaghetti?
it's gonna be OK
6. These Apples - Barenaked Ladies
i shaved her name in my head
and as she beheld it, she said I misspelled it;
need more be said!
these apples are delicious!
as a matter of fact they are, she said
can all this fruit be free?
7. Spam - Save Ferris
now when I was a child
my family was so poor
they didn't have the finer things in life to eat
so we had a plan
in a big blue can
the government substitute for meat!
8. Bustin' Up A Starbucks - Mike Doughty
you can't even pry the nameplate off, now can you?
fix it with your tiny fist there
James Van Der Beek and them sisters from Sister, Sister
the only one that's ever felt this is you
the force that's forcing you
to feel like busting up a Starbucks
9. Alice's Rock 'N Roll Restaurant - Arlo Guthrie
walk right in
it's around the back
'bout a half a mile from the railroad track
you can get anything that you want
at Alice's Restaurant
10. Frim Fram Sauce - Diana Krall
I don't want french fried potatoes, red ripe tomatoes
I'm never satisfied
I want the frim fram sauce
With the oss and fey with shifafa on the side
11. Johnny Saucep'n - Moxy Fruvous
basil endive parmesan shrimp live
lobster hamster worchester muenster
caviar radicchio snow pea scampi
roquefort meat squirt blue beef red alert
pork hocks side flank cantaloupe sheep shanks
provolone flatbread goat's head soup
gruyere cheese angelhair please
and a vichyssoise and a cabbage and a crawfish claws
12. Digsy's Dinner - Oasis
what a life it would be
if you would come to mine for tea
I'll pick you up at half past three
and we'll have lasagne
I'll treat you like a Queen
I'll give you strawberries and cream
and then your friends will all go green
for my lasagne
13. Sweet Potato - Cracker
they say overrated, educated
I suppose a little jaded
when I get off this
I think I'm gonna have to be sedated
so be my sweet potato
I'll be your honey lamb
14. For The Price Of A Cup Of Tea - Belle and Sebastian
for the price of a cup of tea
you'd get a line of coke
for the price of a night with me
you'd be the village joke
for the price of a pint of milk
I'll tell you all I know
about the state of the world today
sit down, enjoy the show
15. Too Much Food - Jason Mraz
you can say that I'm the one curly fry in the box of a regular
messing with the flavor, oh the flavor that you savor
saving me for last, but you better not eat me at all
16. Lemon Meringue Pie - Jeremy Fisher
playing with the words on the tip of my tongue
ain't all I can do with the tip of my tongue
licking the lemon filling as it drips down the long neck of my beer
everyone was laughing and you just smiled from ear to ear
17. Peel Me A Grape - Diana Krall
pop me a cork, french me a fry
crack me a nut, bring a bowl full of bon-bons
chill me some wine, keep standing by
just entertain me, champagne me
show me you love me, kid glove me
best way to cheer me, cashmere me
I'm getting hungry
peel me grape
18. Ice Cream - Sarah McLachlan
your love is better than ice cream
better than anything else that I've tried
19. Cigarettes And Chocolate Milk - Rufus Wainwright
cigarettes and chocolate milk
these are just a couple of my cravings
everything it seems I likes a little bit stronger
a little bit thicker, a little bit harmful for me
20. Fishing In The Morning - Dar Williams
and the fish will watch our boat
with envy and with fear
because we will live forever
and our days are slow and dear
Miscellaneous notes:
- I suck at Photoshop, so sorry if you were hoping for prettier cover art.
- The little piece of art used on the cover (and seen below) was taken from a t-shirt design I found on lafraise.com.
- Yes, there are two songs on this mix from the same artist, which in my book is sort of blasphemous, but I couldn't bear to cut either of them because they fit the theme so well! I know many other artists have recorded the two songs in question but I just couldn't find the mp3s in time.
- This post will be public for a few weeks, but I'll eventually make it friends-only. If anyone needs me to point them to the links again they can get in touch with me, but it's probably easiest to snag it while it's here!
