tiny mix tapes cassette

• Songs that will turn the most cold-hearted critic into a romantic.

• I’m completely tactless, and I haven’t shown you that side of me yet, but I want you to know about it. I need a tape to play in your car stereo that says it. I hope you still like me afterwards.

• I want my life to be in colors again. Right now it’s black and white. Actually, it’s grey.

• Songs That Belong Inside a Fortune Cookie

• Songs to make my dad shut up about how Iggy Pop was the last great hard rocker.
