...I wanted to put "Mixtape," by Butch Walker on there, but I didn't have the CD, nor could I find a (good) copy of it for free download...Oh well...

Oh, and if you've never listen to some of these bands, but like others on here...I'd recommend you check them out. ;)

Um, okay, why didn't you just use the mix tape he puts down IN THE ACTUAL BOOK instead of putting many unnecessary songs on there. I don't think Chbosky would approve of Atreyu.

[beauty is dead]

those songs dont really fit at all.

plus the book pretty much has a soundtrack.
why not just make that?

[Brianfarg]

Alright. Unrelated note: Am I the only person who did not catch onto the whole Charlie and his aunt thing?

[Throwback]

Took me two reads to pick up on that.

Because I wanted to make one that had an overview of the whole book, not just a season, or event...That's what the assignment was...Also, I had to add diversity to it. It said use many different genres.

And on a side note, these songs may mean something different to me, or I may see them differently than you, so don't say stuff like, "that doesn't fit at all..." It is possible that I may have interpretted something differently than you. :neutral: Oh, I have the reasons I picked these songs too, so if you want, I can post them up...


but thanks everyone for your comments, regardless...

[Throwback]

His aunt sexually abused him. That's why he freaks out when Sam touches him.
