Challenge #9
Theme: Bi-polar
Challenger: Josh Duncan
Notes: I call this mix "Bipolar" because, well, "Wild Mood Swings" was taken. The idea is simple, it only contains upbeat songs, or songs that you would slit your wrists to. But, as in life, the manic episodes are frenetic and grandiose. The down ones can be sweet. And, often, the tension between these two can lead to some pretty eccentric ideas.

ReplyDeletedivShare was acting janky this morning. It should be streaming now!
ReplyDeleteI got it to work and voted!!! :) Great mixes!
ReplyDeleteI like SPF but Charlie Sheen is a cheap gimmick and it wasn't enough to make me forget that SPF didn't do an awesome job with "thematic accuracy."
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Sean. Although, I still think you should have used the entire Postive K song.
