    I made my gf an ipod playlist for today, each song has a different picture of us with it. Pretty standard obvious stuff, but she likes to sing along and shit so I mostly went with shit she was familiar with...


    Nina Simone- Wild is the Wind (thanks to the Nina thread on here! This song is unreal)
    Sam Cooke- You Send Me
    Nat King Cole- (I Love You) For Sentimental Reasons
    The Drifters- Some Kind of Wonderful
    The Crystals- There's No Other Like My Baby
    Bill Withers- Ain't No Sunshine
    The Beach Boys- God Only Knows
    Aretha Franklin- Baby I Love You
    Etta James- At Last
    Mad Lads- Don't Have to Shop Around
    Stevie Wonder- You Are the Sunshine of My Life
    Al Green- I'm Still in Love With You
    The Impressions- Just Another Dance
    The Flamingos- I Only Have Eyes For You
    The Temptations- My Girl
    Tammi Terrell- All I Do Is Think About You
    Marvin Gaye- Crazy 'Bout My Baby
    Frankie Avalon- Venus
    Ella Fitzgerald- What Are You Doing New Year's Eve? (our anniversary is New Year's Eve)
    Alpha- Somewhere Not Here (kind of a crapshoot and not old and actually a little sad but goddamn do I love this song)

    I was at home sick yesterday and Luther Ingram, The Chambers Brothers, Inez Foxx, Maxine Brown, War, Albino Gorilla and Kool G Rap made me feel a lot better.

    Some of these apply to V-Day.

    the best "kiss-based" one-two punch:

    meters / just kissed my baby
    bill withers / kissing my love













    (the second-best "kiss-based" one-two punch:)

    I was gonna make a similar post asking for V-Day mix tracklistings. Here's the one I made last night:

    PP Arnold - "God Only Knows"
    Stevie Wonder - "I Was Made To Love Her"
    Marvin Gaye - "You"
    Garnett Mimms - "As Long As I Have You"
    The Emotions - "The Touch Of Your Lips"
    The Shades - "I Know A Girl"
    Parliament - "I've Been Watching You (Move Your Sexy Body)"
    Al Green - "Simply Beautiful"
    The Impressions - "I've Been Trying"
    The Intruders - "Sad Girl"
    John Thomas - "A Lonely Man"
    The Impressions - "My Deceiving Heart"
    Sunny & The Sunliners - "Talk To Me"
    The Flamingos - "I Only Have Eyes For You"
    The Temptations - "Just My Imagination"
    The Majestics - "The Key To Love"
    Back East - "Love Song"
    Prince - "Crazy You"
    Jorge Ben - "Negro E Lindo"
    Milton Nascimento & Lo Borges - "Clube De Esquina"
    The Five Crowns - "Just A Part Of Life"
    Marvin Gaye - "You Sure Love To Ball"
    Bobby Womack - "Woman's Got To Have It"
    The Charmels - "As Long As I've Got You"
    Johnny Baker - "Fog City (And You Babe)"

    There's kind of a theme, which is infatuation and lust, then problems, disappointments and infidelity, then finally working things out. Which seems to be a constant theme in my love life...
