Night Night

[Coco]

I came up with this mix last night, as I was having trouble sleeping. Its a night, bedtime themed CD. Its very literal, but if you wanted to go for the actual meaning of songs, you could add stuff like Failure By Design by BN or Blue In The Face by Alkaline Trio.

The Killers - Midnight Show
T.E.N - Everynight's Another Story
The Rolling Stones - Midnight Rambler
Hot Rod Circuit - The Night They Blew Up The Moon
Further Seems Forever - The Moon Is Down
Idlewild - Actually, Its Darkness
Muse - Blackout
The Postal Service - The District Sleeps Alone Tonight
Moneen - Closing My Eyes Won't Help Me Leave
Idlewild - Let Me Sleep
The Starting Line - A Goodnight's Sleep
The Get Up Kids - Long Goodnight
Hot Hot Heat - Goodnight, Goodnight
The Brian Setzer Orchestra - Sleepwalk
Armor For Sleep - Dream To Make Believe
The Decemberists - Here I Dreamt I Was An Architect
Weezer - Only In Dreams
Brian Setzer's 68 Comeback Special - Dreamsville

Its supposed to fallow the course of a night's sleep.... so late night before bed, actually saying goodnight, then trying to get off to sleep, then actually sleeping/dreaming. Then you could really flash and do a few morning songs to top it off like:

Finch - Awake
The Animals - The House Of The Rising Sun
Limbeck - The Sun Woke The Whole State

There you have it.... its based more on theme than quality of songs (see Finch for example!) but there are some cool songs on there anyways!

Sweet idea, I think I may create this mix later, I really like the "sleep" idea around it

I think the idea's really cool and a sweet theme(I do love the themed mixes) I specially like the TSL, The postal service and the stones songs the most, It gives the mixtape a really solid backbone. And points for the animal track:thumbsup: You've really given it some thought.
A+ I might steal it for a sleepy mix, though a bit of Jason Mraz and Rocket by Yellowcard wouldn't go a miss.

To be honest, I've neverhead Jason Mraz.... though you seem to tout him quite a bit. Are you working on commission or something?! You're more than welcome to steal it. Try to find the Brian Setzer Orchestra - Sleepwalk somewhere.... awesome song, you'll love it.

[Shoes]

I'll have a look for it on bearshare now. I am inlove with jason mraz and his voice and plan to marry him, I mean come on look at that beautiful avatar!

[Coco]

Hmmm, can't say the avatar is doing that much for me! But I'll take your word for it. Ryan Renolds from Van Wilder and Two Guys And Girl.... now thats a guy worth chasing. Or Jesse Lacey. I'll stop before I call my sexuality into any further scrutiny!

wooooooo out of that closet you come!

Get rid of Only in Dreams from Weezer and replace with "Always." Other than that, it's really fucking sweet. Probably the best I've seen on here. Oh, and add Motion City Soundtrack - Together We'll Ring in the New Year.

[Coco]

You don't like "Only In Dreams"? Crazy... its one of my favourite songs.

Where did I say I didn't like it? What I meant is that it doesn't go with the flow. My fault.

[Coco]

Oh right, fairplay. Thanks anyways.

[beefhung]

and how do you not include copeland - sleep?

[Brianfarg]

"Goodnight, Starlight" by Dawson High. If you want that track I can try to send it. It's from the old Juliana Theory\Dawson High split.
