MIX TAPES

It’s All Marshmallows And Ponies Until Someone Gets Hurt


Requested by: Hogie

Compiled by: Elzee

I have interpreted this as a request for happy, upbeat songs whose lyrics are actually kind of sad or dark.

01. Islands - "Rough Gem" (Return to the Sea)
02. the Pipettes - "Sex" (We Are the Pipettes)
03. Love Is All - "Aging Had Never Been His Friend" (Nine Times That Same Song)
04. the Decemberists - "Sixteen Military Wives" (Picaresque)
05. Arcade Fire - "Rebellion (Lies)" (Funeral) 06. I’m From Barcelona - "Chicken Pox" (Let Me Introduce My Friends)
07. the Postal Service - "We Will Become Silhouettes" (Give Up)
08. Architecture in Helsinki - "Heart It Races" (Places Like This)
09. Belle & Sebastian - "Step Into My Office, Baby" (Dear Catastrophe Waitress)
10. Olivia Tremor Control - "Memories Of Jacquelyn 1906" (Dusk at Cubist Castle)
