Okay, so these songs don't really have anything to do with starting a fire. I was at work talking to Debbie about music one day and she said to me, "Hey Katie, you should make me a mix so I'll know who you're talking about." Not wanting to disappoint, I got right on it. Unfortunately, I had to cut a ton of songs off because I couldn't fit them all on one disc. So how did I solve this problem? It's quite simple: make another one! These are the songs that I wanted to put on her first mix but just didn't have room for.

| 2 | We Are Scientists : Worth The Wait |
|
I love We Are Scientists. When I make mixes for friends, I always try to put them on there, but I always use the same song. I'd never used this song before though, so I decided to be different and try something new.

This is a good song for rocking out to, and since that was kind of the purpose for my making this mix in the first place, it seemed like a good choice.

| 10 | Art Brut : Modern Art |

My friends used to tell me that Queens of the Stone Age sucked, and that buying their albums was a waste of time. I'm glad I never listened to my friends, because they were all full of crap.

| 20 | Dirty Pretty Things : Gin & Milk |
|
After The Libertines split, Pete and Carl went separate ways, Pete forming his band Babyshambles, and Carl forming Dirty Pretty Things. Though I really like all three bands, I like Dirty Pretty Things a lot better. But then again, it doesn't hurt that I just like Carl better.

Man some of these songs are good but a lot of them suck. Juliette and the Licks... I have to agree with her friends. I have to say I hated her more when she a) didn't know the names of the Libertines and then b) started hanging out with one of them.

I agree completely about Juliette and her Licks. Plus she's a fantastic frontwoman for her stage antics alone. And she's hot in the dirty, trashy sort of way.
