MixTape Draft - 6+ word titles. Finish your draft and listen to mixes! (1 Viewer)

[Bonzai]

So weird.  My next pick has been playing in an iphone commercial all day as I've been watching the games.  I guess I have to change course.

Too drunk to figure that out now.

 

[Northern Voice]

Holy #### Tear it Down, guys!!

 

[Northern Voice]

If WhisperI’lllistentohearit had spaces, it would be my next pick

 

[Northern Voice]

It's like an album of New York Kiss

 

[Bonzai]

I mean, wtf...

 

[Northern Voice]

Screw it, I'm not getting sniped again.

Round 13: Spoon - Do I Have To Talk You Into It.

For the record, this pick is serious and probably the best song on my mix, I don't care that it was released 86 minutes ago

 

[John Maddens Lunchbox]

Here is a post from earlier in the thread by JML with some other drafts. I seem to remember people talking about a single word draft. Is that true @John Maddens Lunchbox?

Could be. I dont have all the mixtapes linked as i only draft in 50% of them or there were a few that completely fizzled out before finishing. I will try and find all the mixtapes not listed and add them to the master link

 

[Eephus]

I love all these drafts, but what in God's name are you guys doing with this one?  What are we drafting next?  3-toed animals?

1.01  Tom Dempsey PK Saints

 

[Eephus]

More from the cave

13.02 Super Furry Animals - The Man Don't Give A F###

Donald Fagen supposedly held out for a 95% songwriter royalty to license the Steely Dan sample in the chorus.

 

[Eephus]

Found it on spotify.  But the song title is "Breaking Us In Two", no "Always Something" in there.  

The Breaking Us in the Two

 

[Eephus]

Of course. 

I'm hosting a St. Patrick's party tomorrow night, so if I post in here it will be very late and completely incoherent.

I bought 5 albums today (used) for the occasion to show off my new turntable setup:

• The Pogues - Rum, Sodomy & the Lash (I actually know this one)
  
• The Chieftans - 7
  
• The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem - Irish Drinking Songs
  
• K-Tel Presents The Irish Rovers Special - 20 of their Greatest Hits
  
• The Dubliners - More of the Hard Stuff
  

I spent like $60. I have no idea why my wife puts up with me

I remember when vinyl was cheap

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

 Slade literally only have "Cum on Feel The Noize" on Spotify.

Girls Rock Your Boys!!!!

Probably being co##-blocked by those bastards from Quiet Riot.

[Limp Ditka]

14.xx The Call Of The Wreckin' Ball - X

 

[-OZ-]

One more thing I just thought of.  I knew the pretty divorced nurse who assisted the Dr. on my procedure.   It's gonna be slightly awkward  (or not?) when I see her at the field with her kid and ask her what hand she had up my #$&.  ? 

It's only awkward if you ask her to do it there.

In this context, it was, "who's up to drink and talk about music and post italicized song lyrics" @Ilov80s was on the cusp hours ago but isn't here now

Sorry to let you down but my wife wasn't having it tonight.

 

[El Floppo]

and another not on spotify, wtf guys

It's on Spotify. Under sentridoh, iirc

 

[simey]

I will also be drunk posting here tomorrow night if my wife lets me in the door (she will leave early I bet).

Don't drink and drive, PIK!

 

[dal_boys_phan]

Going to crack the seal on Round 15 - pretty sure we have until 4PM for this one, but don't recall if there is a specific start time.  In any event, doubt I am sniping anyone with this one.

15.xx - The Mavericks - As Long as There's Loving Tonight

Great band live and this song is a standout.  Never had a bad time at a Mavs show.

I think the one word mixed tape draft may have been deleted by the staff. I did all girls names for mine, and I can't find it in a search.

It may be archived, but most of the drafts linked are archived and viewable. A search in this site may not find it, but a google search might. Do you remember some of the songs?

Some of the uncommon names were Amoreena, Delilah, Evangeline, Geraldine, Juanita. Here is the playlist on spotify. It must have been one word titles in abc order.

 

[Waingro]

Spotify playlist updated. https://open.spotify.com/user/mattcampbell9/playlist/5pdwROAi7AokEFnhMRMb8I

Someone buy this man a drink!!

One of those the tv songs is played by my daughters toy Pomeranian stuffed dog. It marches in a room and dances and wiggles its butt. The best day of my li-ife whoa oh oh oh oh whoa oh crap.

I owe you some info on 60's draft.  Playlist order.  Mother of all possibly too.  I used to run out of steam at the end.  Now I pace myself.

 

[PIK95]

Don't drink and drive, PIK!

Never!  I walk.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Sorry to let you down but my wife wasn't having it tonight.

Congrats on the sex?

 

[Ilov80s]

Is that the video where she spray paints the 280z.  That made me so angry as a kid.

I don't know, I don't think I was even a year old when it came out. Also I didn't get cable until the mid 90s. 

 

[simey]

15.xx - I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight - Richard and Linda Thompson

 

[KarmaPolice]

I am starting to think that 1/2 of you have me on ignore...

 

[Ilov80s]

Congrats on the sex?

No, we just had things around the house to do. We just painted the living room and had to rehang some BS, move some furniture, etc. Real domestic stuff.

Some of us made playlists after the alphabet draft that were a little more shticky, like this one I did with all artists and songs of different letters 

 

[dal_boys_phan]

I hope this is not because I kicked the door open on Round 15 too early...

HERE   Is the link to the One Word Title/Alphabet draft that I did.  Looks like link to mixes start on pg 29 (of course my lazy ### didn't get them onto the OP)

Didn't know it was that long ago.  We need to keep track of draft ideas that people had for the future somehow.  Maybe post them in one of the first couple posts on the newer drafts we do?  There were some interesting ideas for drafts at the end of this one:

Genesis draft (the book, not the band)

Day 1 songs about Day & Night (2)

Day 2 songs about Heaven & Earth (2)

Day 3 songs about Land & Sea (2)

Day 4 songs about Sun & Stars (2)

Day 5 songs about Fish, Birds & Insects (pick 2)

Day 6 songs about Animals & Humans (2)

Day 7 song about rest/sleep (1)

13 song mixes with wide open thematic categories.

Back to School Mixtape Draft

Anyway, we draft categories that are a class and are tasked with putting together a 12-15 song "syllabus". Easy enough: we have categories like Anatomy, History, Phy Ed, Geography, Psychology, Math, etc.. and we have to draft songs for that category. We could either do one song of each, or have each drafter be a teacher and put together their mix from one class. I like the 2nd option, but we would need more drafters than we have been getting to pull it off I think. Would be fun to do another more like the mystery category mix. For example if there are 24 of us, we could just decide on the 8 categories we like best and randomize so 3 drafters would be doing the same thing. That way there would be a least a little of a battle over songs.

I think we also tossed around the idea of a "6 degrees of separation" draft which is similar to to Eephus' spinner idea. 

There was also one to have a draft of songs with numbers in the titles. 

 

[KarmaPolice]

I hope this is not because I kicked the door open on Round 15 early...

No, just the references last night to the alphabet draft (that I answered a bit about yesterday...). 

I am surprised there isn't more drunken early morning drafting.  After the clock strikes midnight est we are good to go for the following day.

One more thing I just thought of.  I knew the pretty divorced nurse who assisted the Dr. on my procedure.   It's gonna be slightly awkward  (or not?) when I see her at the field with her kid and ask her what hand she had up my #$&.  ? 

A couple months ago I ran into the assistant of my gynecologist at a restaurant. It was a bit awkward. I don't like having an assistant in the room during exams, but I understand why they have to be there. It is still uncomfortable having an audience.

Were you at least able to drink while doing that??

 

[JZilla]

Percy seal has been broken

15.02 Percy Sledge - True Love Travels On A Gravel Road

An Elvis song also later covered by my Afghan Whigs, but this is the way to hear it

 

[KarmaPolice]

Man, only 6 more songs to draft?

 

[Hov34]

I don't know, I don't think I was even a year old when it came out. Also I didn't get cable until the mid 90s. 

Yep that's it.  Don't know why this part made me so mad.

 

[Ilov80s]

Of course, we aren't savages in my house. 

 

[Bonzai]

12.xx It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) - Bob Dylan

 

[Bonzai]

Geez, round 15 already?  

 

[Limp Ditka]

Percy seal has been broken

15.02 Percy Sledge - True Love Travels On A Gravel Road

An Elvis song also later covered by my Afghan Whigs, but this is the way to hear it

Whigs cover was on my short list.

 

[-OZ-]

15

Need a little Fergie and Q-tip: a little party never killed nobody (all we got)

 

[JZilla]

Whigs cover was on my short list.

They don't have many qualifying tracks, though they also covered a Supremes song that was picked earlier

To my knowledge they're pretty much off the board now

 

[JZilla]

Man, only 6 more songs to draft?

I've got plenty on the back burner if you want to keep it going  

 

[PIK95]

15 - LCD Soundsystem "Tribulations" (Tiga's Out of the Trance Closet Mix)

I'm doubling up here.   I love this tune off of Introns.  Sorry if I sniped.

 

[PIK95]

I've got plenty on the back burner if you want to keep it going  

I would love to go to 25 to get a proper mix tape. I may have to drop a couple and repick at the end, depending on my flow, as it is.
