Gift #4
Hey little sis! Sorry this is a little late, I hope you don't mind. Under the cut are two mixes I made especially for you. <3
The first one is entitled "Far From Home." I know you mentioned you're a little homesick, so this is a mix of songs about home or being homesick. The artists and genres vary pretty wildly, but hopefully you'll enjoy anyway!
Come On Home - Natalie Imbruglia
Come on home
It's not too late
Homesick At Space Camp - Fall Out Boy
Tonight the headphones will deliver you the words that I can't say
(tonight im writing you) A million miles away.
Tonight is all about "We miss you."(miss you, miss you, miss you)
Home - Michael Buble
Another aeroplane
Another sunny place
I’m lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I’ve got to go home
Come Back Home - Pete Yorn
And you know you're hard enough
And you find you're strong enough
And you feel you're strong enough
Home - Depeche Mode

Home - Iggy Pop

The Homecoming Song - Owsley

And it's good to be home
Far From Home - Tiga
As far as I go
As far as I know
I've always got
A place called home
I cross all the seas
It's fine by me
'cause I'll never be
Far from home

And the second mix is to counteract the first! These are twenty songs that never fail to get me dancing or cheer me up, no matter what kind of mood I'm in, and I picked them out of quite a few, hoping they'd do the same for you. Some of them cheer me up because they have silly lyrics, some of them have a great beat, and some have both!
Lollipop - Mika
I went walking with my mama one day,
when she warn me what people say,
live your life until love is found,
or love's gonna get you down.
The Birds and the Bees - Patrick & Eugene
The birds and the bees
Are flying in the trees
The sun's in the sky
Just for you and I
Does Anyone Else In This Room Want To Marry His Or Her Own Grandmother? - Atom and His Package

Sunshine - Wheatus
There's a rocket I built;
It's under my kilt;
It's coming to blow you away.

I'm Downright Amazed At What I Can Destroy With Just A Hammer - Atom and His Package

There may be a couple hints as to my identity if you're up for a little detective work, but if not, you'll find out soon enough. ;) Let me know if you have any trouble with either of these rars, or any of the songs.
