A few years back, I decided to make my songwriting friend a mix to get him into the music of Daniel Johnston. Today, I read a pretty good “top 10 DJ songs” list that got me thinking back to my own favorites again. Here’s the tracklist of that mix I made (granted that I got to fill a whole CD-R; also, I think that I was missing a couple of the early tapes back then):

(01) Casper the Friendly Ghost

(02) Love Not Dead

(03) Tell Me Now

(04) Walking the Cow

(05) Scuttle Butt

(06) Fish

(07) Rock [edit]

(08) Keep Punching Joe

(09) Blue Clouds

(10) The Story of an Artist

(11) True Love will Find You in the End

(12) Speeding Motorcycle

(13) To Go Home

(14) The Startling Facts

(15) Man Obsessed

(16) Fighting Myself

(17) Chord Organ Blues

(18) Heart, Mind, & Soul

(19) Power of Love

(20) King Kong

(21) Scrambled Eggs

(22) Easy Listening

(The irony is that the title of the mix comes from one of the few songs I couldn’t find a link of on youtube.)
