Mix Tape

While going through some of my accumulated crap I’ve encountered a mix tape from 1989, courtesy of my boyfriend at the time:

  • The Fall: Dog Is Life
  • Joy Division: She’s Lost Control
  • Soft Cell: Tainted Love / Where Did Our Love Go?
  • Bauhaus: Of Lilies And Remains
  • My Bloody Valentine: Soft As Snow But Warm Inside
  • Jesus And Mary Chain: Mushroom
  • Joy Division: Insight
  • Pixies: Monkey Gone To Heaven
  • Die Ärzte: Sweet Sweet Gwendoline
  • Flipper: Brainwash
  • Siouxie And The Banshees: Strange Fruit
  • Bauhaus: Mask
  • Sex Pistols: Bodies
  • The Cramps: Don’t Eat Stuff Off The Sidewalk
  • Soft Cell: Memorabilia
  • Love And Rockets: God And Mr. Smith
  • Camper Van Beethoven: Take The Skinheads Bowling
  • Soft Cell: Tainted Love
  • The Doors: People Are Strange
  • The Velvet Underground: The Gift

Thanks for the flashback, Asa.

    No one ever made me a mix tape. Wah.

    This is good stuff on that one.

    People don’t make mix tapes for boys.

    I made mix tapes but they weren’t nearly as edgy as this one. This fella must have liked you.

    Why yes, he did like me quite a bit. And then I broke his high school heart. I haven’t seen him or heard a peep about him since 1991. What do you think, boys - is he over it by now? I think I finally found a trace of him, there can’t be two people with that name in Philly. I’ve always wondered what became of him. I’m not a stalker, I swear. I’m just nosy.

    Hooray for the reminiscing. More flashbacks to come!

    She’s talking about potentially reopening a door in her life and you’re referencing a poorly-drawn web comic. I love you, man.

  8. 8 Richard

    It’s not poorly drawn, it’s sublime.

  9. 9 David

    Much like myself.

    By the way, “Mix Tape Thread” is a good band name.
