    greetings, earthlings (where are you from? uh... earth...)

    right so. here's the 4-1-1. i'm making a compilation tape of irish music for a foreign bud of mine. am having a very hard time deciding what to include and what to throw away. could you kind lot help me out by suggesting songs/ bands i should definitely put on the tape? i'm all a-fluster.

    cheers, big ears.

    Make sure to put a nation once again on it, according to the bbc it's the best pop song of all time.

    If I was making a tape I'd put stuff like

    Turn
    Speedman
    Skyjack
    Polar
    66 Electric
    Frames

    on it

    Try and get bands that Phantom plays alot but are not known well internationally.

    PS loads of U2 :p

    hum. yes. i began a list today of possibilities... once they begin, they never stop. my only definites so far are:

    the frames
    turn
    bellx-1
    damo rice
    king sativa
    66e
    la rocca

    for everything else, there's too much indecision. should i just put them all in a hat and pick at random? the person i'm making the tape for is likes a lot of different types of music, mostly guitar/ rock oriented. so phantom-esque music, i s'pose.

    as for the person who asked what a "4-1-1" is, i'm not quite sure. i heard it in a movie once. hah.

    you'd look really funny walking down the street

    i'd opt for money, but i wouldnt like people 'picking on me' all the time. *tee hee hee*

    i'll go with clothes...if clothes grew on me, id save a lot of money, AND u wouldnt have to get dressed. (although showers would be kind of a drag)(and you know what)

    Speedman.
    Berkeley.
    The Murder of Crows.
    Snow Patrol.
    Turn.

    Can't go wrong there buddy.

    Plus, despite my comments about the 66 Electric before, I went out and bought the EP cause I felt bad about slamming them so harshly and actually quite liked it. So stick I Died In A Movie on it too.
