So we are finally to the final 34 songs in my playlist entitled "The Epitomy of Mixes". I have counted down 67 songs that I drunkenly put on this list and overall I will say that I'm very pleased with this list. Although don't be too surprised if I do a sober remastered version of this list. And now that I have Spotify (thank you Justin and Dave), I'm also going to convert these into playlists on that and post it on facebook. Or maybe not.
So there are only two artists that shouldn't have made this list but that is what happens when you quickly make a list (while intoxicated) and try to cram it all on there. I definitely should have gone back and made adjustments but I think that would have kind of defeated the purpose. The two people who shouldn't have made this list are D'Angelo and New Edition. While I love some N.E. I picked one of their weaker songs. As for D'Angleo... who the hell knows what I was thinking. Oh and somehow Blackstreet makes two appearances which = :-(
Also I have noticed that when I shuffled the list to give it a great random feel, it took like 5 or 6 hip-hop songs and lumped them at the bottom. So the bottom of the list isn't as diverse as I would like to be.
So lets cut the crap and get right down to it. The final 34 songs of my 101 "The Epitomy of Mixes" list starts with...

Episode V - Mistakes
Okay so I did a little reviewing after I posted my list. What I realized is that when you are intoxicated you make very rash decisions when it comes to music. So while the first like 33 songs are amazing and I wouldn't change a thing about them... I find that as the list progresses, there are songs that I really wish weren't on this list.
For example as much as I might enjoy 'De-Luxe' by Lush, it should't be on my playlist of all playlist. Also since I'm more coherent, I can explain that some artists I only have one song from. So please don't expect anything other than 'True' from Spandau Ballet. What I tried to do is pick some fantastic songs from awesome artists. What might happen is finding some okay songs from some lame mediocre people.
Either way I could give two shits because this is my playlist and I can do whatever the fuck I want to. So if you think for two seconds it will be edited you can hop on the nearest fuck-stick. While I do second guess some of these choices, I made this list while I was half in the bag and didn't change a single song on the list. Every song I own, bar left over shit from an ex, serves a purpose. So whether they are good or bad, they deserve to be there.
So if you don't like a song or think it should be replaced by another, you can keep that shit for your blog. My blog is about my songs and how they managed to somehow creep into my list and life.
Side note: While I appreciate it's awesomeness, I really don't want Free Bird to be on my list. But its there so "let it be".
