note from Jess: The best songs are, of course, songs that you and your friends know and like to sing along to. Since you and I aren't friends (yet?) I made this mix from memories of my friends and my prom. I remember there was a lot of pre-nostalgia to prom, so I tried to incorporate as much of that as I could on both sides. Side A is for getting ready to party like you are almost out of high school, Side B is for quiet reflection/makeouts.
Side A:
01. The Dismemberment Plan - "Tonight We Mean It" (Is Terrified)
02. LCD Soundsystem - "North American Scum" (Sound Of Silver)
03. The Magnetic Fields - "The Sun Goes Down And The World Goes Dancing" (69 Love Songs)
04. Joe Jackson - "Kinda Kute" (I'm The Man)
05. The Mountain Goats - "This Year" (The Sunset Tree)
Side B:
01. The Clientele - "Bookshop Casanova" (God Save The Clientele)
02. Devendra Banhart - "Quetate Luna" (Cripple Crow)
03. Mirah - "La Familia" (You Think It's Like This But Really It's Like This)
04. Jeff Buckley - "Everybody Here Wants You" (Sketches For My Sweetheart The Drunk)
05. The Flaming Lips - "Do You Realize??" (Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots)
