I just got out my little red book the minute that you said goodbye


Making these mixes with girls' names in the title (and only a girl's name in the title) is not as easy as it sounds. There are thousands and thousands of songs like this, but I don't want to use the same name twice within the same mix and a lot of these songs use the same name. There's an awful lot of songs about Marys, Sarahs, Dianas and so on.

On this one I wanted Hello Saferide's Anna as track #7 because it flowed into Freinds' Jaqueline perfectly. But alas I had already decided to use The Beatles' Anna on this mix. So Hello Saferide had to be put on the backburner for possible inclusion on Volume 4.

O the woes of the mixtaper. You have no idea.
