The Rules: find one song that fits each category, and throw it on a mix tape or CD! feel free to fumble with the order, but you need to say which category each song fits in. make copies, and trade. i have mine done, and am ready to send them to you -- just drop a comment.

[Hey, understandish, i ripped a couple of these from your list, and I'm sorry I didn't participate last time, but i'll send you this one]

1. your favorite first track of an album
2. a song featuring animal noises
3. your least favorite song from one of your favorite albums
4. a song with really good lyrics

7. a song that sounds like a really bad car accident
8. your favorite song from a non-soundtrack compilation
