I am not a very nice person anymore. I am beginning to understand tonight. 'A first sign of the beginning of understanding is the wish to die.' said one of my favourite authors. I feel like crap this evening, that's why I made a mixtape. To set my feelings aside. It didn't work.

This is a cover mix. A special one. Song 2 is a cover of a song by the artist of song 1. Song 3 is a cover of a song by the artist of song 2. Song 4 is a cover of a song by the artist of song 3. Song 5 ... You get the point. I think I saw this concept on another website some time ago.

Man, I had to add Robert Wyatt to the database. You must all not like his weird voice. Look who he's covered by! I loved him when he did the soundtrack for 'the travelling birds'. This song is awesome.

9 Beck : Do You Realize??
Beck sings this as if he has a hot potato in his mouth in some parts. It's kind of charming. I saw Beck on a festiva last summer, and it was a bit disappointing. I think we left to go see My Morning Jacket.

10 Johnny Cash : Rowboat
Okay, so I am using Johnny Cash once more, so I can eventually get to the closing song. Yeah, it is a Beck cover. Beck should worship Johnny for covering him. You know. Cash owns this song.

First off, I love this mix, love the concept! I am all for using ideas I find on this site, let alone any other! You have +5 from me because I do like it so much. I always thought it was Wyatt that wrote Shipbuilding, and that it was Costello who did the cover, but it would not be the first time I have made such mistakes. I also thought I had used Wyatt's cover of "I'm A Believer" on a previous mixtape but again, I must be wrong. I do know I have liked his work for a long time, going back to Matching Mole days in fact!

Plus for the Kafka. And this is a nice mix. I don't remember which chocolatier made them (I think Neuhaus?) but there were the some great pralines named after the queen (or former queen) Fabiola. I didn't like chocolate before I went to Belgium, now I can't get enough of Cote d'Or, the little elephants -- bouchee.
