I was way into this song from the first listen.

Bar Italia – punkt
David Byrne – I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)
The nomination specified "live", and I assume this is the version they're talking about. It's the one on the mix at least.
Deer Tick – If I Try to Leave
Bully – All I Do
Why don't we start from the beginning?
Summer Mix 2023
I had this down to two hours of songs for quite awhile, but wasn't sure where to go with it. I like to keep things around 90 minutes if possible. I wasn't sure what to change nor the order it should be in. Then, one night, like a good Connections puzzle, everything suddenly became clear.
As usual, every year, I say I really like how the mix turned out. And I'll say it again! I really like how the mix turned out!
Anyway, it's up on the podcast feed. If anyone wants a full downloadable copy, please let me know. Great job, gang.

2023 Summer Mix Nominations
Well, friends, it's about that time again. Toss your nominations below.
1. The theme is "Summer". You're free to interpret that as you'd like.
2. Put your nominations in a Spoiler box.
3. You may nominate up to 3 songs. Any further nominations will be ignored.
4. Unless we get an insane amount of nominations for some reason, everyone's first choice is automatically in. The rest of the mix will be filled out with the other nominations.
5. Like a Supreme Court justice and porn, I don't know the exact time when a song becomes too long to include, but I can tell you that 15 minutes is probably a bit too long...

Nina Simone – Mississippi God Damn
I didn't realize it at the time, but there are a lot of live tracks on the Mix this year. Anyway, this is not the version that ended up on the Mix (it was live though, but no video), but this version is pretty great too.
