    Oh, how could I forget to list In Hiding?? I might need to re-do my list, again. :oops:

    Present Tense
  • cd21millercd21miller Columbia, MO Posts: 302
    perhaps this should be an album of pj songs...5 on the front, 5 on the back -- just like the grand ol' days of vinyl. and with an homage to Ten, we actually get 11 songs...yay! (besides, couldn't decide on the last one, so 11 works best.)

    i gave my 5 earlier, but if we go by the album concept, thus allowing us a little leeway...here you go:

    side 1
    go
    corduroy
    last exit
    black
    rvm

    side 2
    present tense
    i got shit
    of the girl
    sad
    porch
    release
  • j-bugj-bug Posts: 272
    see,thats kinda harder.if your doing it as an LP you really have to think about the placement of songs in relation to each other and the number they have.

    this might take me a while...

    didn't say it would be easy...in fact, adding 6 songs to it and having a flow on the album was a bit tricky, but to each his own, i suppose.

    and the whole reason why we even do stuff like this, anyway.

    :D
