AT FIRST I WANTED TO TRY TO FIND ONE SONG THAT FIT ALL THE CATEGORIES, BUT THEN I GOT BORED OF THAT IDEA. PERHAPS NEXT TIME.

INSTEAD I JUST MADE A REALLY RANDOM MIX.
IT'S LACKING IN DESCRIPTIONS BECAUSE I HAD TO MAKE IT LIKE 4 TIMES.

ON THE TITLE:
WHEN I LOOKED UP "RANDOM" ON THESAURUS.COM, "SLAPDASH" CAME UP AND IT SEEMED FITTING AND RADICAL.

Johnny, i can't help liking them... i even like the new song from the Spider-Man CD.

Eric, the song is from her "The Covers Album" and if you haven't heard it you NEED to. it's one of the most beautiful songs ever... and sounds nothing like the original.

That's totally what went through my mind the first time I thought of that myself! And also 16 opening tracks that would do as closers too... tough. You let me know when you find that all-in-on song.

Naiz. I favored them for nearly three years, saw them live in April, and now have a healthy, completely non-addictive relationship to their music.

16 songs that fit all 16 would be tough. mostly because they'd all have to be short. next time i'm going to find 1 song that fits all of them though.

and yeah, i dig some MCR.

Hot damn, I dig it! VERY NICE.

First time I see MCR in a mix that ain't mine.

Haha, it would've been so sweet if you came up with 16 songs that all fit the 16 categories.
