I used to be able to churn out mix tapes every week or so... I also used to do a lot more driving, and needed the audio support system to keep me sane on the roads. Anyway, almost three years after the previous challenge,
![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
aum called another
Mix Scavenger Hunt. I threw this together in somewhat of a hurry, but I actually like it quite a bit.
As with my other mixes, I'm open to trading.

1. A song about your favorite body part
2. Have a Last.fm account? If so, pick the top most played track you have listed. If not, pick your favorite track.
3. A song from the 1920s
4. A favorite track from a favorite movie (This is the title track to Bai Jingrui's Home Sweet Home. I used to have a list of favorite movies somewhere, but these days, it's become much harder to decide.)
5. A song that gives you chills
6. A song about sports
7. A song about a video game (mini-boss doesn't count)
8. Cover song from a children's television show
9. Best rap song EVER! (Uh, this is one large genre of music that I don't claim to know anything about, so I picked what I could from my limited collection.)
10. A song with a brand or product name in its title (I gave up on this one. Instead, I chose a satirical song that pokes fun at the "Supersizing" phenomenon gone out of control with lots of brand name dropping. The lyrics in this are hilarious and I may add a translation later.)
11. A wartime propaganda song
12. A song originally recorded on wax or tin
13. The shortest song in your collection (I chose this from a number of songs under 40 seconds long, excepting spoken-word tracks, soundbites, and segue tracks.)
14. Your favorite love song (My favorite? Again, hard to choose, but this tune is up there.)
15. Love song about an object, not a living creature
16. The most obscure one-hit wonder you own (Is this obscure? Was it a hit? It was a single, but I don't even know if it really fits this category.)
17. A song about a real-life natural disaster (This is actually about the ecological disasters that would result if you interfere with nature by building a dam -- man-made natural disasters? Numerous soundclips from Legislative Yuan members, teachers, professors, activists, and writers involved with the Meinung Dam Protest are sampled.)
18. Longest title in your collection (The longest I could find was actually a Sufjan Stevens song, but he uses a lot of "ors" in his titles, which I think is cheating. ASMZ consistently has songs with long titles, and I like them more, so...)
