Anyone have a great, great song to open up my new mix cd.

My last mix opened with ELO's Mr. Blue Sky and it alwys got the party started right. Looking for another killer track like that.

To help some of the songs already picked out for the cd are:

Ryan Adams - To be young.....
James - Laid
Outkast - Whole World
Frank Black - Hang On To Your Ego
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Maps
Specials - Pressure Drop
New Pornographers - The Laws Have Changed
Rocket/Crypt - Young Livers

etc.......

Quite an eclectic mix I know but I need to find that great opening track.

Thanks.

Radiohead-Airbag

I Wanna Be Sedated-The Ramones

It really depends on what song you plan on putting next. The most important part of a mix-anything is flow.

You mean The Grudge? Awesome song.

Agreed. Perhaps you should give us the tracklisting..

El Da Sensei - Relax
Organized Konfusion - The Extinction Agenda

I thought he already gave seven tracks, although not necessarily in order....

.... my suggestion to start any compilation is either Marc Bolan's "20th Century Boy" or "Should I Stay or Should I Go?" by the Clash.

great openers:

"Press Play" - Stone Temple Pilots
"2+2=5" - Radiohead

All good suggestions....

Im leaning toward 'Feel Good Hit of the Summer' by Queens of the Stone Age

Any more......?
