Burning a CD

***Marilink*** · 11-26-2008, 08:37 PM

I need suggestions for a CD for my girlfriend. I've already got some tracks:

1. Put On Your Sunday Clothes -- Michael Crawford (from the Wall-E soundtrack)
2. Somewhere Over the Rainbow -- from the 50 First Dates soundtrack
...
??. Shut Your Eyes by Snow Patrol
...
Last: The Luckiest by Ben Folds

So, just throw some out there. They don't even really have to be romantic or anything, but nothing too hardcore or strange.

Well damn, that rules out "Milk It" by Nirvana.

Mushi · 11-26-2008, 08:41 PM

Not knowing what your girlfriend is in to, I can only say...

Disregard everything that I say.

...something by Gorillaz.

Yes.

Awesome idea. Thanks.

Bomby · 11-28-2008, 01:01 AM

"A Girl Like You" by Edwyn Collins
"I Want You" by Marvin Gaye

"What a Diff'rence a Day Made" by Dinah Washington is prerequisite.

***Cosmonautical*** · 11-28-2008, 07:24 AM

"Dicks Are For My Friends" by Mindless Self Indulgence.

The only song I know that fits your specifications is 4 33 by John Cage.

***Marilink*** · 11-28-2008, 05:58 PM

Mkay, CD is done.

1. Put On Your Sunday Clothes -- Wall-E Soundtrack
2. Falling for the First Time -- Barenaked Ladies
3. Shut Your Eyes -- Snow Patrol
4. Out Of My League -- Stephen Speaks
5. Marching Bands of Manhattan -- Death Cab for Cutie
6. Overboard -- Ingrid Michaelson
7. Hands -- The Raconteurs
8. Starlight -- Muse
9. I'm Yours -- Jason Mraz
10. Scenes from an Italian Restaurant -- Billy Joel
11. The Luckiest -- Ben Folds

I scrapped Somewhere Over the Rainbow. The song is okay, but it doesn't really mean anything to us. I was thinking about I Will Follow You into the Dark, but I asked her (covertly, I didn't let on about the CD) if she liked that song, and she said it was more depressing than romantic. So meh.

Speed · 11-28-2008, 11:14 PM

C'Mon man, Conchords is the way to say I love you.

Eagle Eye · 11-29-2008, 09:21 PM

Damnit, I was going to suggest "Never Wanna Leave" by Governor and "Going in Circles" by Isaac Hayes. 15 minutes of pure wow.

**LASER BEAR ASSAULT UNIT** · 11-30-2008, 01:32 PM
