THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS HALLOWEEN MIX
I just made this! It’s 16 creepy songs. That I had such a hard time choosing which songs to include makes me really really happy. Good ol’ weird TMBG.
Here is the tracklist (I’ve Got a Fang isn’t even on here, it is just a good name for a mix):
01. kitten intro02. the devil went down to newport (mono puff)03. hall of heads04. you are old, father william05. haunted floating eye06. iowa (john linnell)07. turn around08. hell hotel09. 25 o’clock (xtc cover)10. headless11. the mexican drill12. skullivan13. dig my grave14. chess piece face15. now is strange16. where your eyes don’t go

edit: Download this and stick it on the end as track 17 or something. DO NOT SPURN THE MARTY BELLER MASK.
Here’s a playlist I started to make a few weeks ago and then just remembered and finished. It’s called excited as heck and the songs in it are very exciting and fast and punchy and poky.
download it here if you want
All right. This is me in playlist form (click through for zip file), as suggested by Giovanni (please everyone make these, that would be super rad [and tag them with ‘people as playlists’]).
I was going to write little descriptions about why I chose each song, but it’s very hard to put into words why some of them are important or what facet of me they describe, so I’m not gonna attempt that right now. Feel free to ask, though, if you want to know.
The tracklist is vaguely chronological, but also a mix of when bands were most important to me/when I discovered them & then what the songs actually are, lyrically, and more of a musical journey up to the present? Kind of. I’m not sure.
The last song, though, is a They Might Be Giants cover by Frank Black, and it is how I feel at this moment; it encapsulates everything I love about fall and reminds me of hay rides and apple cider and crazy colored canopies of trees and the smell of fire in cold air.
tryin to make a playlist about hair and its accessories; this is all i have so far
suggestions?
yarrrrr ok here is the finished They Might Be Giants playlist!
tried to make it introductory/comprehensive-ish, but it devolved into more of a my-favorite-songs kind of thing. also i attempted to arrange it in an aurally pleasing way but i’m not very good at that!
so click on the picture to download!
there are 48 songs.
