The Holiday Mix

by The 405, 06 July 2008

Sometimes songs become much more than the music itself and turn into time capsules of memories. These songs might remind you of a person or a place or an event and sometimes they can be hard to listen to but at the end of the day thats what makes music so good.  I recently went on holiday with some of my favourite people on this planet (excluding a few very special people) and during that time we listened to a lot of music but i feel the following five songs will always remind of that week and the beauty of being with friends and enjoying life. These songs might not carry any feelings for anyone else but me but i hope you enjoy them anyway. 1. I'm A Realist by The Cribs 2. Olympic Airways by Foals 3. Mount Wroclai (Idle Days) by Beirut 4. The Underwood Typewriter by Fionn Regan 5. Street Spirit (Fade Out) by Radiohead Download the whole thing as a zip file here!
