Memories! I think I still have that tape somewhere. Whether it would still play or fall apart is another story.

That’s a surprisingly good mix. The filler is especially well-chosen — those are both songs I remain deeply stuck on. A number of safe choices, but no stinkers.
You know the story behind my selection, right?
