1. Dress Rehearsal Rag - Leonard Cohen : This could be depressing. But everythings okay because life is just a dress rehearsal.

2. Love is Like a Bottle of Gin - the Magnetic Fields : Yep, that's love.

3. Note to Self - the Divine Comedy : Yeah, talk about restating your assumptions. I love the part where he screams, "what the fuck is happening?" Yeah, he's alone. "There is nothing as frightening as being alone." And one has to restate their assumptions.

4. We're Just Friends - Wilco : I'm new to this song. I just got it from Matt. It seems to capture some of what's going on. Maybe a slightly different view. A view askew if you will.

5. Car Chase Terror - M83: Yeah, listening to these girls scream in terror about the crazy maniac is a little more melodramatic than how I responded to fast swirving SUV.

6. Why Does It Always Rain On Me? - Travis : It sounds happy but its all about life continuing to put you in the suck. Why do I deserve this? What did I do? Did I lie when I was 17?

I will edit this as I continue to listen. It should take days to compile a mixtape.
