If you're trying to impress this person, you'd better swap Ben Folds's "Golden Slumbers" with the Beatles' version. I mean, if you can have the Beatles, why would you want anything other than the original version?

Seriously though, very cool mix.

I think the real question is why would you put "Golden Slumbers" on a mix when you could put "You Never Give Me Your Money"?

I keed, I keed...

He's got a point. But why not close the mix with "In My Life"? I mean, if you've ever graduated from anything, it'll hit ya. Or if you're just a Ramblin' Man...

To answer some of your questions:

1. Ben Folds instead of The Beatles version? This person I'm making the CD for and I have bonded over our love for the Beatles. So I wanted something Beatles-esque, with out putting The Beatles on it. I don't usually like Beatles covers, but I do love this version of Golden Slumbers.

2. I think Golden Slumbers is the perfect song to end any mix CD, Ben Folds or Beatles version.

3. I'm not ending it with IN MY LIFE b/c even though that is one of my favorite Beatles songs (and I don't mind the Johnny Cash version) it reminds me of my ex boyfriend too much.

other that the first 2 tracks... I'm amused that the rest of your mix is in alphabetical order by artist.
