This mix is for Erin‘s road trip to Ann Arbor for grad school. It is a bit inauspicious that it starts with a quote from Scott’s failed expedition to the South Pole. However, things get better from there.

An Ergodic Walk 
But I wanted to be surprised!
Also, for whatever it’s worth, two of those are on the last CD you made me. *stops looking gift horse in the mouth* But they’re good songs…
Plus, you added “Ramble On,” which is one of my favorite driving songs and I don’t think you knew that. So bonus points for you.
And it ain’t gonna be just a slap on the wrist. Woo-hoo!
once again – good mix!
Great mixes. I have to say that in the past two months, I’ve made several mixes for friends combining songs from what you’ve compiled here, and even stranger, I made a mix entitled “Emo Baggage,” on which both “Une Annee Sans Lumiere” and “I Think I Need A New Heart” were listed. Big props for the Tom Waits’ version of “Downtown Train” – the way he commands, “Will I see you tonight?”………..okay, enough gushing.
