C90: Beat Happening

Message Bookmarked

Go for it! I want to make a C90 (or at least a side of one) for my car filled with these goobers. I think wading through all the material and picking for myself might not give me the most diverse/varied tape; I'd end up with 45 minutes of songs that sound like "fortune cookie prize." So gimme what you guys like best.

...and it wouldn't kill you to pad out the last part with some of the early Dub Narcotic Sound System singles, esp. "Shake-A-Puddin'" and "Bite." And "Ship to Shore." And maybe some Go Team stuff, like the mighty "My Head Hurts."

if we're talking Dub Narc, don't forget "Rougher", with Lois on vox. Magical.

now if there was ever a band that needed a compilation..

electric sound of jim (electricsound), Wednesday, 5 February 2003 04:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Beat Happening are possibly the most romantic band, these are the songs that remind me the most of my first love:

Let's Kiss
Don't Mix the Colors
I Spy
Foggy Eyes
Indian Summer
This many boyfriends club
Cast a Shadow
TV Girl
Nancy Sin
Red Head Walking
Revolution Come and Gone
Teenage Caveman
Godsend

What's going on with them? Are they getting back together or what?
