D and I don't do much for Valentine's Day, but I did want to do something to tell him I love him, so I'm making him a mixed CD for his car (he doesn't have a way to plug in his iPod) of songs that remind me of him. This is what I have so far (might change):
First Day of my Life - Bright Eyes ("our" song/first dance at our wedding)
I'll Stand by You - The Pretenders (I read the lyrics as my wedding vows to him)
All I Wanna Do - The Beach Boys (he read the lyrics as his vow to me)
The Joker - Steve Miller Band
Use Somebody - King of Leon
Late in the Evening - Paul Simon
Sassafras Roots - Green Day
Home - Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zeros
Every Thug Need a Lady - Alkaline Trio
Something So Right - Paul Simon
Church on Sunday - Green Day
Head Over Feet - Alanis
Pale September - Fiona Apple
El Scorcho - Weezer
What would you put on your mixed tape to you SO?
Re: Mixed Tape
I have no idea what I would put into mine, but yours sounds very sweet and personal.
Thanks!
I forgot one: In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel
The Way I Am - Ingrid Michaelson (one of our wedding songs)
Better Together - Jack Johnson
You & Me - DBM
ETA: I love this idea, and I love Every Thug Needs A Lady LOL
