A haiku a day keeps Byron sane. Sort of.

Day 01 : Your favorite song right now

Jamie Cullum’s “Mixtape” from his latest album, “The Pursuit” has got to be one of the most fun songs that I’ve heard in a long time. It really just makes me want to dance every single time I hear it. In it, he sings to a significant other about a mixtape that he’s made, with all the artists he’s got.

It’s a great song for me because this is what I feel like all the time. “I’ll make you a mixtape that’s a blueprint of my soul,” the lyrics say. I make CD’s as gifts sometimes, and of course they’re mixtapes (barring the fact that is/was a “disc of MP3’s”). My iPod even, is just a giant mixtape where I put everything I’m feeling on 512MB for about 2 months.

I feel like everyone needs to have a playlist that’s just got songs of everything they’re feeling at the moment. What song would be on your mixtape?
