It seems to be my turn to host one of these. I kept thinking up and then immediately forgetting cool ideas but one finally stuck and here we are.
It's been a bad day. Your girlfriend or boyfriend (or cat) has just been kidnapped and held hostage by an evil multi-national organization. This vile corporation trying to blackmail you into harnessing the power of all of the world's kittens and puppies and bunnies to create the ultimate WMF (Weapon of Mass Fluffstruction) and destroy our civilization. With cute.
You only have so long to react before lingering death befalls your loved one. Do you give in and unleash an adorable doomsday? Do you train in an obscure and extinct martial art so you have the skills needed to break into the Guatemalan base where your loved one is being held? No matter what you decide, time is short, so what you need is...
A MONTAGE!
Pick 5 songs that would be your montage theme. Something that catches the essence of the blood, sweat and tears you put into that 2 minutes you spent on months or years of work.
As always, the rules are in effect:
1. FINISH THE MIXTAPE.
Five songs, no repeats; meaning don’t just copy-paste the same song 5 times (though I expect there to be some overlap between people’s lists). Remixes, covers, and live / acoustic versions are acceptable as well.
2. PROVIDE LINKS.
Let us hear what matters to you! Just a couple minutes of rooting around on Google or YouTube should be enough to provide sources for your list.
3. NO PICKING ON ANYONE'S MUSICAL TASTE.
I AM SERIOUS ABOUT THIS YOU GUYS. If you don't dig the selection, move on.
4. STICK TO THE THEME.
While I’d like to keep the entries within the bounds of whatever the current category is, if you’re absolutely stuck but still want to contribute and whatever you want is out of bounds Rule #1 comes first. If you include explanations of your choices, all the better!
