Can You Tell It's A Quiet Day Around Here

You know who it's hard to make a mixtape for? Your girlfriend who doesn't "get why techno is so great".

You know who it's impossible to make a mixtape for? Your immortal boss-slash-boyfriend who already owns every Big Band LP ever and yet openly admits to having enjoyed the Spice Girls. And...and I'm pretty sure he dated Sid and Nancy

I've heard that he likes T.I., but Sarah Brightman? Not so much.

Well, sopranos can be such divas, and there's no room for any more diva anywhere when Jack is in the room.

Klezmer. Trust me.

Gesundheit.

He probably saw Pink Floyd in their heyday, bought the bootlegs and has them stashed away. Lucky cuss.

Not anymore. They mysteriously migrated to my album collection after I accidentally picked the lock on his music cabinet.

Foreign-language covers of Mersey beat hits.

[ask_aboutcoffee]

Well, that's just mean.

[annlarimer]

Skiffle?

Why don't you just make a mixtape of your own favorites? It sounds like there's not much the immortal boss-slash-boyfriend doesn't like (in one capacity or another) and it might help him learn something about you.

[And, if you have room on the CD/tape, slip in some of these. ;-)]

Nice list. I think no sexay playlist is complete without this Macy Gray song

[ask_aboutcoffee]

Is...does she inhale helium before she sings?

[venusinchains]

Oh, yes. That's a good one. (Though maybe Sexomatic is more Capt. Jack's speed. :P)
