After the music meme from a few days ago, music remained a topic of conversation here and at several other blogs I read.

Nothing has emphasized the age difference between Wendy and me as much as this meme does. Not only don't I have any favorite songs on her list, but I don't recognize half of the titles.

The Hidden Blogger refuses to see the light about the wonderful music of U2. Oh, well... whattayagonnado? The guy obviously needs to cling to this belief. May Bono have mercy on his soul.

MCF ambitiously posted his top 100 songs of all time... he also has a nice little round-up of blogs that have posted the music meme among his phantasmic links this week.

I thought about posting a personal top 100 songs, but there's no way I can pull that off. Instead, I'll post the contents of a mix CD I made recently, which I consider to be the best mix CD I've made in a long time.

If I were a superhero and they did a movie about me, this would be the soundtrack.
