A few weeks ago at the time of our Music Critiquees, I put together a custom mix CD of the best songs of 2002 from my own published top 10, and some picks of our various blogcritics. I've been particularly pleased with listening to this, so I thought I'd take a minute to detail it for you. In short, if you whip these songs together, you'll have a jam that just won't quit.

Not bad... I personally would have used Sky Is Falling from Blackalicious instead of the song you used... and Hurt by Johnny Cash... but all in all, not bad.
peace.

On the Johnny Cash pick ["The Man Comes Around" instead of "Hurt"]: I'm a sucker for apocalyptic Biblical stuff.
