8. Ballboy - "I Wonder If You're Drunk Enough To Sleep With Me Tonight"
9. BLK JKS - "Kwa Nqingetje"
10. Britney Spears - "Born To Make You Happy"

I don't think I've ever gotten three classical selections in one mix, much less three in a row. I love it. But let's launch with one of the best Deer Tick songs ever.

"I am the boy your mother wanted you to meet
But I am broken and torn..."

Also, Jessica Lea Mayfield is such a rare gem, I don't know why I don't listen to her more.

"Get thee behind me, Jesus
I've given up on you."

The Codeine song is particularly awesome, as well. The lyrics:

"Don't remember your kiss
Can't remember what I miss

Thought you were blind, I held your hand
Guess I still don't understand

Wish I'd never seen your face."

Yeah, this mix rules. And then it ends with Britney Spears.

And hurray, they're all on Spotify this week, so just let it play. Off to see Tori Amos live for the umpteenth time, but first time in 11 years, which is insane.
