Contest and Giveaway: Name This Mix!
UPDATE: We have a winner! Way to go, Aaron!
I thought I’d try something new and check out this Muxtape thing the kids are all talking about these days. As a result, I was inspired to create my own Muxtape (which took we quite a while – but hey – now I know how to rip and burn and slash and warp like all the cool kids). What mix should I make? Why, a mix of the six gosh-dang songs that are in my head on SERIOUSLY heavy rotation these days, of course!

So I had this great idea to post my mix and have a contest: You tell me what all these songs have in common, and WHY THEY ARE RUNNING THROUGH MY HEAD (leave your answer in the comments), and I’ll send the winner a $10 Amazon or iTunes gift certificate to buy your own songs with. Feel free to buy the ones in this mix, if you’d like them to be in YOUR head ALL THE LIVE-LONG DAY! Track 2 is a killer – just TRY to forget it!
So, let the guessing begin! Contest closes at 7pm Pacific Time on Sunday, July 27. (I’m giving you a while, so those who don’t check that often because I’ve been a slacker poster can have a chance to stop by and enter). The first correct answer (by timestamp on comments) wins. If no one guesses the correct answer by that time (and yes – there is a specific, correct answer), then I’ll draw a number at random for the winner.
Good luck, have fun, and enjoy the INTERNAL AUDIO MONOTONY!

honestly, I’m not getting this! I can see how some of the songs fit, but not others….I’ve been thinking about this all day, thank you very much.

OK … TOTALLY going out in left field here … is this a mix of songs you walk to (i.e. exercise)?? My brain is too tired to spend much time pondering this … and now I’m humming “I can’t get no …” Thanks SO much!

Oh, this one is easy. These are your favorite songs from when you used to watch Solid Gold. You and your Tri-City dance team friends used to dance along every Saturday night to these classic hits!
