[Updated on January 22, 2008] A mix of indie and soft, slow-tempo alt. rock songs. Mainly a mix for relaxing, although a couple of these songs have been known to evoke tears on certain occasions. Some of these tracks are so perfect (to me) that even after years of listening to them, they still give me chills/shivers. Many of these songs have emotional memories attached for me, but hopefully you can enjoy them without the baggage. Don't make assumptions based on the band name, or what you think they will sound like. Being surprised isn't a bad thing in this case, I promise. Hopefully a couple of these songs will touch you, and feel free to leave comments about songs that would fit in with this playlist. Happy listening!
Some personal favorites.. they never fail to get a good emotional breakdown out of me. (Passenger Seat, Tiny Vessels, Transatlanticism - Death Cab For Cutie ; Take Me Home - Aqualung ; For Blue Skies - Strays Don't Sleep ; Neither Heaven Nor Space - Nada Surf ; Hide And Seek - Imogen Heap ; Coming Back To Life, Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd, and lastly, Stripped - Shiny Toy Guns).
