This is for my good friend Billy, who is recently broken up with his girlfriend. You want to listen to this alone, and probably a little drunk, and definitely in your underwear. Do it Billy, its going to get you through it. We are just trying to get through this.
The Strokes- Fear of Sleep
Buck Owens- Heartbreak Mountain
NRBQ- Nothing Wrong With Me
Creedence Clearwater Revival- Long As I Can See The Light
Chicago- If You Leave Me Now
Al Green- For The Good Times
Todd Rundgren- Be Nice To Me
Destroyer- Blue Flower/ Blue Flame
Basement Jaxx- If I Ever Recover
Beck- Lonesome Tears
Bonnie Raitt- I Can't Make You Love Me
Fiona Apple- Love Ridden
Sinead O'Connor- Nothing Compares 2 U
Glen Campbell- By the Time I Get To Phoenix
Rhett Miller- Come Around
Let me defend my choices real quick. I know that there are some bad ones, and I know it seems like I really like the Basement Jaxx (I don’t! I swear! Okay I do), but these are very break up specific. The order is most important here Billy, I promise it’s going to take you through and your going to be a better man for it. And if you don’t have the album “Sea Change” your going to have to get it. There have been many a weeks spent in bed listening to Sea Change through headphones. P.S. sorry about putting on I Can’t Make You Love Me, but your gonna need a good cry, maybe there will even be a gasm to go with it… Gross, I didn’t want to picture that.

augh! i can't believe you would make your "friend" "billy" listen to "I cant make you love me". what the hell kind of recommendation IS THAT? do you want him to lock himself in the bathroom with a kitchen knife and just end it all or what?
editors note: never heard of this billy. im thinking this mix should be titled "my little pony and my other friends all left ten voice mails on my cell phone tonight! they are sooo annoying and needy!!! i'm like you guys, call someone else! i have my own life! and their like, nooo we want yoouuu!!!"
