Sorry if this isn't an acceptable topic of discussion under the new rules. I was just having one of those crappy days when I wanted to stew in my own misery and self-pity for awhile, which is always a little better with your own personal soundtrack. I thought of Fuel's "Bad Day" and "Are You Happy Now?" by Michelle Branch, then just figured I could turn it over to the Goldderby posters to get some ideas. Again, sorry if this is exactly the kind of thing we're trying to move away from now, just let me know. Otherwise, I'd appreciate some input.

Isn't he the guy that used to be on Degrassi? I remember seeing a segment on Entertainment Tonight Canada.

booyahboy are you looking for sad-ish songs or angry-ish ones? Or either? I'm thinking about it though, I love mixes!

Definitely both. And any genre. I need a good mix, for any occasion.

I'm making a list but for starters most of the Vanilla Sky soundtrack fits the bill, and it's really good!!
