I was thinking about playlists (formerly known as mixtapes) the other day and decided to make one that involves songs which evoke a particular location or event. Since this set of criteria is so loose as to allow a playlist of thousands of songs, I set myself some rather arbitrary limits. It had to fit on a standard audio CD (74 minutes) and each song had to be specific to a particular location/time and only one song per location/time. So, although high school is four years long, it gets one song. I went to Korea three times for a total of four years, so that’s three songs (one per trip). I also decided that any trip of less than two months didn’t count. So, no song for BNCOC or CEWIOC or business trips. Here’s the 57 minutes I ended up with; commentary follows:
| Doug E Fresh | La Di Da Di |
| Living Colour | Cult of Personality |
| Violent Femmes | Blister in the Sun |
| Faith No More | Epic |
| Ministry | Everyday Is Halloween |
| Divinyls | I Touch Myself |
| Ace of Base | The Sign |
| Soundgarden | Black Hole Sun |
| Los Del Rio | Macarena (Bayside Boys Mix) |
| Smash Mouth | Walkin’ On The Sun |
| Kid Rock | Bawitdaba |
| Transplants | Diamonds and Guns |
| Evanescence | Bring Me To Life |
| The Waterboys | When Will We Be Married? |
