Like Gryff, I am also making a mixtape. And yes, it is also for a lady. Here's the problem. I want at least one song that incorporates her name into the title. Anyone know any good tracks with "Marie" in 'em?
Oh, and as a guideline, she likes the alternative/indie scene. Stuff like New Pornographers and whatnot. But if there's a song outside that genre that rocks, tell me anyway.
Thanks a ton!
Edit: Once I end up giving it to her, I'll tell y'all how it went!

Sweet Marie - The Anniversary. Only thing that came to mind immediately. Good song, too.
-
Holy shit dude! Don't tell anyone you don't own 'Blonde on Blonde' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolutely_Sweet_Marie).
*hugs*
It's gonna be okay.
Dude, Absolutely Sweet Marie? That's a killer song! I TOTALLY forgot about it. So now I have two to consider, so far. Or, I could just have both, as bookends for the mix.

Apparently that was my first post. This astounds me. No more lurking.
Also, that is one sweet mix-tape, my friend.
-
is the Rosebuds song a cover of the Jawbreaker song?
-
Man I am glad you sorted this out because I was just going to suggest that 10 minute Tool song about Maynards mother dying.
-
Props on the rosebuds. Ive been championing them pretty heavily as of late.
-
Awesome mix! :-D
-
the pillows (whom I haven't listened to in a long time, wow) have a song called "Marie of Paris" (it rhymes if you say it with a French accent!). The lyrics are in Japanese, though.

Hey pal, I'm his biggest fan. Go find someone else to emulate!!
