Pink Floyd - Comfortably numb
Something for Kate - Monsters
Something for Kate - Deja vu
Radiohead - Subterrainian Homesick Alien

Stop bloody posting here unless you and gonna contribute to the subject of the thread.

Post 15

shut up knight.

Post 16

sorry but he is right paladin!!

Post 17

he isn't actually, the topic of the thread is a 'feelgood' cd mix, and i find it hard to believe people think those are feelgood songs, therefore, i'm questioning the validity of their posts and asking for clarification. so please, feel free to shut up as well.

my idea of a feelgood song? poison - nothing but a good time.
ben folds five - brick? that songs downright depressing.

Post 18

well, im sorry if you guys jus see the depressing side of a song ^o)

Pesronally? Brick is a song that reminds me of my older sister, not because of it's content and abortion, but cause we listened to it when we were younger. She's moved out now, and I don't get to see her as often as I'd like. And, I didn't say this was an uplifting mix - just something i liked.

My all time favourite uplifting song would have to be:
Rhubarb - Exerciser ... cause that's me :)

Post 19

see, knight, metalattack, it was a self admitted offtopic post, so you wannabe thread nazi's might want to pay closer attention to what you rant about, k?

Post 20

no, shut up paladin.

Post 21

please knight, your moderator envy is unbecoming. stick to being the happy clown, it suits you better.

Post 22

Quote from Knight Of Nih:
no, shut up paladin.

Post 23

ahahahah w00t Paladin i'm on your side brus :D

Post 24

ok lets make this official. shut up knight and stop trying to earn some sort of moderator brownie points with your efforts to pseudo moderate. any further attempts to do so by you will result in post deletion. now, back to the regularly scheduled thread.

Post 25

Quoting yourself is so not cool.

Oh and Never Far Away by Jack White would definitly be a worthy addition to said compilation.

Post 26

Paladin, please post a suggestion next post,
Knight, good songs man.
===============End of rant

Here's another few, from old school cafe del mar etc,

Lux - Northern lights
Pat Metheny (unknown one, cafe del mar)

no real need to qualify the buying part, its just as illegal to make your own compilation out of legally purchased cds as it is to download songs and burn them. in australia at least.

Post 31

N.E.R.D - Wonderful Place, once u get over the catchy tune, it's quite a good song.

by compile, i mean, have all the CDs...:D

Post 32

Its so hard to pick what I would want for 1 ultimate cd... But given my current tastes probably these:

Regurgitator - Freshmint!
Regurgitator - Tommy Mottola
Regurgitator - Happiness
Muse - Hysteria
Muse - Citizen Erased
Regurgitator - ! (Song formerly known as)
The Hives - Walk Idiot Walk
Muse - New Born
Radiohead - Myxamatosis
Radiohead - Wolf at the Door
Radiohead - Punchup at a wedding
Presidents of the United States of America - Ladies and Gentlemen Part 1

Post 33

Gary Jules is awesome, his album is pretty tops - my ex's mum just bought it :?
But it shits me when people have only heard Mad world, even tho yes it is a freakin incredible song - but they heard it off Donnie Darko not before the movie...if that makes any sense at all.
