Oh man, I love Konichiwa Bitches. Downloading, thank you!

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

It really is easy to love, isn't it?

[vic-ramsey.livejournal.com]

This mix looks kind of awesome. Downloading!

My favorite fic person as of late, I have a question for you. I am pondering on either hosting or having something to do with two seasonal fic challenges. One is for Pepper Potts and the other is for the Petrellis. What would I need to do to persuade you to submit a piece (as short or as long as you wanted) to both?

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Alas the Petrellis train is no longer at this station; it's at the scrap yard, which means, yeah, that's just never going to happen. Pepper, though, yeah, I could totally hit that one.

Thank you, darling! I'm going to download when I get home. *blows kisses*

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Enjoy!

Wow cool, I only have one of those songs on my computer (the Propellerheads song). And I love "Today is the Day" by Apollo Sunshine -- they used it in a Hollyoaks episode I saw recently and I was wishing I had it!

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

I am prescient that way. ;-)

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

Whenever I'm depressed, I think of Sam and Gene dancing to "Jean Genie," and then I'm happy to be alive, too! *vbeg*

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Okay, which episode is that in again, because now I want to go back and see it again! Also, "Jean Genie" came on the radio today (which I never listen to) and i was totally rocking out in traffic.

[sarkastic.livejournal.com]

Taking, this'll be great for my upcoming road trip. Thanks!

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Enjoy!

[mir8lle.livejournal.com]

I'm so taking this! Have a trip to London tomorrow and unfortunately suffer from a near pathological fear of the tube. Perhaps this will get me through it. Thank you! <3

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Oh, I hope it goes well. Personally, I love the tube.

[amberlynne.livejournal.com]

Yooooooooooooooooooooooou make me happy! ♥

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Your icon is disturbing, yet amusing. Much like your SGA love. And hockey love.

[starfishchick]

Thanks for this, how nice!!

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Enjoy!

[pixelarious.livejournal.com]

Thanks, that looks like an awesome list. Robyn is what Madonna wishes she could be, so why do I keep hearing 4 Minutes everywhere and not Konichiwa Bitches? Even the NAME is awesomer!

LOL, I could not agree more. Have you seen the video?

[chinawolf.livejournal.com]

Thank you!!!

Usually I end up spenidng a lot of money after downloading stuff from you... >_> XD

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

And they say that downloading takes money away from the industry. I call bullshit! ;-) Enjoy!

[dine.livejournal.com]

that looks like a great mix - I'm snagging it! thanks so much for sharing

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Enjoy!

[chicklet-girl.livejournal.com]

Downloading this when I get home -- that Propellerheads track is one of my favorites. I love how the beginning switches from ear to ear when you listen to it using headphones.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

The very first time I heard that song I was in the middle of a run, and it came on and went from one ear to another and I thought my earphones were burning out and then I had to stop b/c I have no idea what the hell was going on. In short, yes, it's just that good.

[elzed.livejournal.com]

Ta v much - sounds like a good mix.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Enjoy!

You posted this today because it's Shia's birthday, didn't you?

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

It was Shia's birthday? He's totally on notice though. He needs a minder.

The Lupe 'Superstar' featuring Matthew is my cell phone ring. I love Matthew. There's something so hypnotic about his voice...and he's a sexy m.f. too. LOL
