20 Year Mix

Postby Tinman » 5/2/2013, 9:04 am

Well... i've got 7 hours left in the office and bored out of my mind, so i figured i'd take a break to liven this place up again.

Met a new (lady) friend (rawr), and she's a music nut... so obviously I tell her OLP is my favorite band, and that leads to me making her a mixed disk. 2 songs from each studio album, 1-8, for 16 total tracks. I figure we could all post our ideal mixed disks... its really hard... as there are so many good options.

1.Starseed
2. Birdman
3. Carnival
4. Car Crash
5. Happiness and the Fish
6. Consequences of Laughing
7. If you Believe
8. Wonderful future*
9. All for you
10. Bring Back the Sun
11. A/L/S
12. Apology
13. Paper Moon
14. Refugee
15. Heavy Weight
16. Rabbits

Most the albums I really struggled with. Once I hit Gravity through BB, it became easy, as there really only 2 songs on each of those albums that spoke to me, but then when I got to curve, I had trouble picking just two songs to again... which to me is an awesome example of the album's integrity.

*I had to edit the mp3 and cut out the rest of the track after the song stops due to file size and breaking the flow of the mix. Maybe coulda put it last, but didn't want to break chronology. It's my favorite song, by any muscian, ever, so, it had to stay on the mix.

Good pics... Supersatellite! Oh man... now i'm second guessing my self :)

Hope was also a hard one to leave off.

If this is it almost made my cut... but rabbits is, for me, the best song on the album... i also considered someday change... even FITHH was tempting... but i felt like heavyweight has a little bit more of the old olp nostalgia.

Like i said, curve was much harder to pic just 2 songs from... god, can't wait until they start leaking some of #9

Is hard to find the best songs in the first four album (particularly on Spiritual! Damn what a record!) and a little bit also in Curve...i think however that Rabbits is one of the best songs that OLP ever made...also respect the first four! Also Burn Burn is hard...i like a lot of songs like Dreamland, Monkey Brains, Refuge and the two that i pick despite Raine's voice that is "bored", Gravity and HiPT are easy..

Yeah I have a feeling picking the best from each album is harder than picking the worst. I wish I could pick some non album tracks, cause some of their live/acoustic/rarities stuff is my favorite. Anyways, I'll give it a try :)

1. Naveed
2. Neon Crossing
3. 4am
4. Car Crash
5. Potato Girl
6. Blister
7. Right Behind You
8. If You Believe
9. Not Enough
10. Story About A Girl
11. Angels Losing Sleep
12. Al Genina
13. Escape Artist
14. Paper Moon
15. Heavyweight
16. Will Someday Change

Leaving off Carnival almost feels like a mortal sin, but I had to follow the rules. Curve was definitely the hardest for me to choose from, as I've not had more than a decade to ruminate on the songs. All in all though, I don't think I'll ever tire of any of those songs on my list.
