    So I've made an 80s mixtape for myself to enjoy but I'm at lost at how to arrange the songs, so I'm asking for your help. Here are the songs I have.

    The Fixx - One Thing Leads To Another
    The Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Star
    Taco - Putting On The Ritz
    Peter Gabriel - Shock The Monkey
    Men Without Hats - Safety Dance
    Madness - Our House
    Gary Numan - Cars
    Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Relax
    Flock of Seagulls - I Ran (So Far Away)
    Eddy Grant - Electric Avenue
    Dexy's Midnight Runners - Come On Eileen
    Devo - Whip It
    After The Fire - Der Kommissar
    Dead Or Alive - You Spin Me Right Round
    Corey Heart - Sunglasses At Night
    Clash - Rock The Casbah
    Michael Jackson - Billie Jean
    Thomas Dolby - She Blinded Me With Science
    The Proclaimers - I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)

    So all in all, about 19 tracks...problem is, how should I order them on the CD. Help!

    There you go Derek. You are trying to kill me with nostalgia and some what bad music. I have actually seen Devo live.

    Edited again because Derek is obsessive. haha

    The Clash should be first and A Flock Of Seagulls should be last.

    says the one who said there was bad music in the list and proceeded to add your own tracks to someone else's mixtape.

    There should be a mixtape thread where people post tracklistings and stuff.

    Well I apologize for not being privy to an instant message conversation.

    In the context of what was posted, it looked like you were being sorta hypocritical. No offense, but that it IS what that series of posts looks like without knowledge of this instant message conversation.

    It was a joke Kayce, but since certain people have chosen to tear apart certain things with a fine tooth comb, I am a bit touchy.

    Your hypercritical analysis of a post I made on Mali's facebook page the other day didn't help my attitude any.

    Enough said.

    You should tracklist them so they make somewhat coherent sentences.

    Der Kommissar, shock the monkey. Video Killed the radio star, I ran so far away. You spin me right around putting on the ritzs. One thing leads to another, bille jean. I melt with you. I'm gonna be sunglasses at night.

    Come on Eileen, relax! Rock the casbah! Cars, Our house! Election Avenue. She blinded me with science. Safety dance.
