Tuning In & Out of Love:


A Mix by Jamora
Download here!

I originally made this mix to be played in reverse. Starting from complete bitterness, the listener will be taken backward in time-- visiting the various stages of grief, then going back to the break-up, next the period of doubt (but knowing you're totally going to get dumped), and finally returning to the lovey-dovey stages when you thought "Geeze, this person is amazing!" No, they probably weren't. You were too blinded by your hormones. I know. So here is my angst-ridden portion of the mix, complete with some charming (but angsty) pop songs and classy hits.


1. The Police - "So Lonely"

"Welcome to this one man show
Just take a seat they're always free
No surprise, no mystery
In this theatre that I call my soul
I always play the starring role"

2. Apples In Stereo - "I Can't Believe"

"She come and she goes at sunrise
She come and she goes when I'm yawning
She come and she goes, that's not nice"

3. Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin - "Think I Wanna Die"

"Think I wanna die if you don't stay
drop dead in place, you can forget it
Carry a torch for days,
I'm gonna let it burn"

4. PAS/CAL - "You Were Too Old For Me"

"Could've called you if I wanted
There's a number to your room
I thought it would be so much smarter
To just stay in"

5. Nick Lowe - "I Love the Sound of Breaking Glass"

"I love the sound of breaking glass
Especially when I'm lonely
I need the noises of destruction
When there's nothing new"

6. The Magic Numbers - "Love Me Like You"

"All those years gone by,
I only want to find a way to make it hard for you"

7. Cake - "She'll Come Back to Me"

"...to hear her footsteps on my walkway
she never came,
she never even called"

8. Gang of Four - "Damaged Goods"

"I'm kissing you goodbye!"

9. Peter Bjorn & John - "Let's Call It Off"

"When you decided to knock on my door,
did you remember what happened before?
It just didn't sparkle, it just didn't glow"

10. The Futureheads - "Skip to the End"

"I would skip to the end
Decide if it's worth going through with
Skip to the last paragraph before we start
Said a happy ending or a broken heart"

11. Sondre Lerche - "I Cannot Let You Go"

"And it's all coming back to me now
So we'll pretend or make up something new
You can push me away but I cannot let you go"

12. The Wannadies - "You and Me Song"

"You and me always
And forever
It was always you and me always"


But not anymore... forget it! Ugh!
