The Sublime Goodness Mixtape Vol. II

That's right - the wait is over. It's been twelve weeks since the first Sublime Goodness Mixtape and since then I've been posting another Sublime Sunday song every week, comprising this second installment.

And I do say, this is the most eclectic mixtape I think I've ever made (and I've made many!) - Michael Jackson, Smashing Pumpkins, the Chi-Lites, Vampire Weekend, m....I've also created some front and back cover art that is in the zip file like last time (and in case you are wondering, the pictures for both volumes of the mixtape are from my copy of the Illustrated Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman - one of my favorite books).

Here is the tracklist (with links to the original blog posts):
  1. "Tender" by Blur
  2. "Concrete Sky (Acoustic)" by Beth Orton
  3. "Across the Universe" by the Beatles
  4. "Deep Forbidden Lake" by Neil Young
  5. "Sunday Afternoon" by Christopher Morris
  6. "For Martha" by the Smashing Pumpkins
  7. "The Wind Cries Mary" by Jimi Hendrix
  8. "Playground Love" by Air
  9. "Have You Seen Her" by The Chi-Lites
  10. "It's Oh So Quiet" by Bjork
  11. "Rock with You" by Michael Jackson
  12. "Walcott" by Vampire Weekend

The Sublime Goodness Mixtape

Every Sunday for the past twelve weeks, I've been posting sublime songs (uplifting, moving, beautiful songs...) for your listening pleasure. Well, after I posted last week's I thought, "Hey, that's the twelfth song - an album is usually about twelve songs...OH YES, it's mixtape time!"

I took the twelve songs and came up with a nice playlist (so I think). It starts off slow, and then builds up in pace and tempo to the end. I also threw together some front and back cover art that goes together with the music (a tracklist is on the back cover).I'm very pleased with how it turned out and very excited to share it with you. It's a great mix to chill out to.

Here is the tracklist (with links to the original blog posts)
  1. "The Shining" by Badly Drawn Boy
  2. "Knot Comes Loose" by My Morning Jacket
  3. "Into the Mystic" by Van Morrison
  4. "These Arms of Mine" by Otis Redding
  5. "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World by Israel Kamakawiwo'le
  6. "Love" by John Lennon
  7. "Dear Someone" by Gillian Welch
  8. "If I Can Dream" by Elvis Presley
  9. "Bittersweet Symphony" by The Verve
  10. "Love & Happiness" by Al Green
  11. "Star Guitar" by the Chemical Brothers
