MIX TAPES / VIVA LA ROCK / RADICAL GIFTS!

 

Remember making mix tapes?!

 

What is so great about mix tapes is that the songs themselves have meanings individually, but when we arrange those songs according to our mood or hopes and dreams, they create a greater message and a completely new artistic meaning. Each mix tape is so personal and so unique! It's totally 100% girl art.


MIXTAPE

One of my cousins broke up with her boyfriend after some 4 years; after sharing a long cry and a whole lot of laughs, you realize you just have to be there to offer your support, love, and encouragement...

 

And a mix tape!

 

I knew for sure, Anya Marina was going to be in the mix.

 

anya-marina-a02

 

Needless to say I am all excited and sent my cousin an email that “I had reinforcements coming” -- of course in the form of Anya Marina and some Duran Duran!

 

duranduran

 

(I think Nick Rhodes is wearing Wildflowers eye shadow :)

 

I was on a mission to create the ultimate mix tape, so I started rifling through my CD’s, my ancient records, and cassette tapes – by the way, I came across a Men Without Hats tape, Safety Dance anyone?

 

The thing is I couldn’t find a blank tape to compile my song list.

 

And I realized there were no more tapes.

Even if I found a blank tape, was she going to be able to play it?

 

CD’s are just not mix tapes, they become dusty coasters near the computer…I started to wonder if this was going to even happen. I mean the purpose was to rekindle her spirit.

 

I needed a cassette tape!

 

And that’s when I found the perfect “modern day” solution for the mix tape from my girls over at Viva La Rock!

How cute is this!!

It’s a USB STICK that fits into a cassette!!! LOVE IT!

 

You can have it in your purse and listen to your music on the go, or even better create a mix tape and share it with a friend, or just give them away as gifts. They also make the perfect stocking stuffer.

Chicago! I am such a sap
written by Marnold, December 03, 2009
I actually remember making TONS of these! I always had the super sappy mixes with tons of Chicago for the breakup crying sessions. I also had the grunge mixes when I was dating DH. I guess I am still a grunge girl at heart because that would be a mix tape I would make in a heartbeat! Alice in Chains is still my fave...Down in a Hole is actually our "song". I remember the day we married, we told the DJ to play Slayer or Alice In Chains...if looks could kill! smilies/grin.gif

Mix Tape
written by CHaak9603, December 03, 2009
This is so awesome!  I love that USB Stick that fits into a cassette!  It’s amazing what fun things are available out there, if you’re willing to take the time to look!!!  So sorry to hear about your cousin, but it’s great she has you to help her through it!  “Breaking Up Is Hard To Do” by the Carpenter’s come to mind…
 
Since 10 is the magic number (10 prizes will be picked on December 10), I put 10 songs on my mix tape.  I tried to make themed for your cousin or any other girl that is going through a breakup.  It starts with your heart broken and that love sometimes hard (a battlefield).  Then it moves on to that there is someone out there for everyone and to not give up hope.  Then I wanted to encourage the fun times with friends, to look back on all the positive memories, and to create new memories.  Next are a couple fun songs that you can’t help but sing and dance with, but most importantly to laugh with.  Then to finish the list, a couple songs to remember your roots and that you still have your family and friends that care about you and support you.  Of course I’m from Chicago, so that is why that song has a special place in my heart!  These are just my thoughts on the songs, but they can be interpreted however you choose.
 
My Mix Tape!
Heart of Glass - Blondie
Love Is a Battlefield – Pat Benatar
Somebody to Love – Queen
Don’t Stop Believin’ – Journey
Girls Just Want to Have Fun – Cyndi Lauper
Good Times Roll – The Cars
Black Betty – Ram Jam
Whip It – Devo
Sweet Home Alabama – Lynyrd Skynyrd
Sweet Home Chicago – West End Orchestra & Singers (Blues Brothers)
 
I love how music just has this way of healing.  It seems like there is always a perfect song to match whatever mood you are in.
 
Best Wishes to all of you lovely ladies. 
 
“You are your own person.  Let no one in life stand in the way of you being you.” – Crystal (2004)

I've been making a list of my favorite love songs which I want played at my wedding (not that I have one planned anytime soon, though)! So a mix tap of these songs would be the perfect wedding gift to my future husband, whoever he may be. smilies/cheesy.gif

1. So Close by Jon McLaughlin (from the movie Enchanted)
2. From This Moment by Shania Twain
3. That's When I Love You by Aslyn
4. Everytime We Touch (slow version) by Cascada
5. The Way You Look Tonight by Frank Sinatra
6. You Are So Beautiful by Danny Gokey
7. Your Song by Elton John
8. Thank You For Loving Me by Bon Jovi
9. Tonight I Celebrate My Love For You by Peabo Bryson & Roberta Flack
10. 1,2,3,4 by Plain White T's
11. Lucky by Jason Mraz & Colbie Caillat
12. I'm Yours by Jason Mraz
13. Forever Love by Wang Lee Hom

I especially love the last one, which is a Chinese song. The chorus translates as this:
Forever love, forever love,
My only wish is to use this lifetime to love you,
From now on,
You are my every reason to be happy/blissful


Very apt for a wedding song!! smilies/grin.gif

Meg's Monday Morning "Get Pumped" Playlist
written by megharp17, December 04, 2009
Alas, I did not live in the era of the mix tape. I started out making mixes on CDs! Now that I have an iPod, I do not even use CDs anymore. How things change! I have different playlists for what kind of mood I might happen to find myself in. One of my favorites is my "Get Pumped" playlist, which I usually listen to on the way to classes on Monday mornings, when it is so hard to extract myself from bed! Some of my favorites from this list are...

1. Spaceman- The Killers
2. Hot N Cold- Katy Perry
3. Hallelujah- Paramore
4. Starlight- Muse
5. We are Golden- Mika
6. Love Today- Mika
7. That 70s Song- The Cab
8. Every Little Thine She Does is Magic- The Police
9. Life in Technicolor ii- Coldplay
10. Crystal Ball-Keane

I love this playlist because it has my favorite artists (The Killers and Mika) as well as songs that just plain and simply make me happy!

My mix is 1980-86 pop music:

Highway to the Dangerzone - Kenny Loggins

Dancing With Myself - Billy Idol
Absolute Beginners - David Bowie
I Want to Break Free - Queen
Beast of Burden - Bette Midler

5.Girls just wanna have fun - Cyndi Lauper
6.Born to be wild – Steppenwolf
7.After Dark – Tito and Tarantula

B side love songs:

8.Summer Nights - Olivia Newton John and John Travolta
9.Forget Domani – Frank Sinatra
10.Can't Get Enough Of Your Love Baby – Barry White
11.Surrender – Elvis Presley
12.Love of my life – Santana
13.Is this love – Whitesnake
14.Blower’s Daughter – Damien Rice

If you don't know some of these songs you should try to find them. I love all of these.
I would like to add even more but I did as I used to do recording my mix tapes - I selected the most desirable ones. Unfortunately a MIX TAPE isn't limitless.
ultimate mix tape
written by jbroni100, December 07, 2009
i have just joined the gym (again) having previously spent so much in memebership but always found an excuse not to go. i am one of those people who has so much exercise equipment that i could start my own gym stored away. so my ideal mix tape would contain motivational songs to get me in the keep fitness groove.

my collection would be perfect workout songs from movies whichi find both inspirational and motivating.

1. No Easy Way Out - Robert Tepper
2. Hearts on Fire - John Cafferty & the Beaver Brown Band
3. your the best - bill conti
4. the moment of truth - bill conti
5. Meet Me Half Way - Kenny Loggins
6. glory of love- peter cetera
7. Listen to Your Heart - Little River Band
8. go the distance - hercules
9. You'll Be In My Heart - Phil Collins (Tarzan)
10. Part Of Your World - Jodi Benson (Little Mermaid)
11. Beauty and the Beast-Angela Lansbury (Beauty and the Beast)
12. You've Got A Friend In Me - Randy Newman (Toy Story)

wasnt sure how many we could choose so any of the above would be ok with mesmilies/smiley.gif

This one's for the girls
suds in the bucket
any man of mine
remember when
butterfly kisses
my heart will go on
the keeper of the stars
I swear
if tomorrow never comes
can you feel the love tonight
Metal for Mama Memory Mix-Tape
written by jaelb17, December 08, 2009
I have a confession: I am a conservative 40-something mom who never got over her love of hair and heavy metal bands. Mix tapes bring back memories of my teen years (a time of passion, heartbreak, and self-realization) so I'd make a memory tape of my hair/metal favorites (this is only a few, LOL!):
1) Fire Woman! (The Cult)
2) Slow and Easy (Whitesnake)
3) Beth (KISS)
4) Still Loving You (Scorpions)
5) Don't Cry (Guns n' Roses)
6) Love Song (Tesla)
7) Love Bites (Def Leppard)
smilies/cool.gif Silent Lucidity (Queensryche)
9) Don't Close your Eyes (Kix)
10) Do You Wanna Touch (Joan Jett)
