Happy New Year everyone! You may have read in Carmi's post that she was only going to be updating once a month from now on. From now on, I will be updating weekly instead of biweekly/randomly like I usually do. I will still probably only post full rotations/mixtapes once every two weeks, but in the weeks in between I'll be making smaller updates. Posts will probably be made on weekends. :) All the best in 2011!

- Haruhi



overview: The theme of this mix is a bit difficult to explain. It's for those points in your life when you feel like you've changed; like you're no longer as naive and you are in a way proud of how you've grown, yet sad for the things you've lost along the way. These songs are about the moments that changed you and the things you learnt from them - about past, present, and future.

tracklist:
01. mercedes - joseph arthur
oh i know you will rise
when you watch yourself burn to the ground
oh i hope that you will rise
when you talk about what they've done


02. dancing at her funeral - the limousines
the only words she can say are can you take me home
before her spirit escapes her as a soft blue glow


03. the truth is in the dirt - karen elson
the truth is in the dirt on the ground,
not in your poison tongue or your acid tears


04. give us a little love - fallulah
leave it by its pain, leave it all alone
if i never turn, i will never grow


05. lights go on again (full version) - beast
i kept wandering in the long darkness
to reach that place touched by the single ray of light


06. the end where i begin - the script
sometimes your first scars don't ever fade away

07. the ice is getting thinner - death cab for cutie
and the ice kept getting thinner with every word that we'd speak

08. i was wrong - capsule
the best of times
through coloured glass


09. skeleton key - margot & the nuclear so and so's
and it's clear to see
you're nothing special
you're a skeleton key


10. change - monkey majik
i need a change
cause it's all gone wrong for me
i need somebody else to lead me now


11. fisheye lens - nell
you were meant to be my reality
but it's over now, it's over now


12. white gold - metric
hush don't explain,
when you water down my name
i'll be up too late
call me when you get
better at your game
you haven't beat me yet


13. 별 빛이 내린다 (starlight is shining down) - bye bye sea
between the starlight that poured down
above the people that poured out
my hearth that poured out
i've grown like that


14. you and i both - jason mraz
oh taking your advice i'm looking on the bright side
and balancing the whole thing
but often times those words get tangled up in lines
and the bright lights turn to night


15. history sticks to your feet - modest mouse
and you realize that the floor sticks to your feet like history

16. 남자 때문에 (because of a man) - joo
i want to learn to live alone
so that i can smile a bright smile
without holding someone else's hand


17. cross bone style - cat power
oh come child
come and rescue me
because you have seen some unbelievable things


18. sorry that i loved you - anthony neely
but sorry doesn't turn back time

19. don't you mourn the sun - mimi
and i said, don't you mourn the sun
cause darling, the nightmare has just begun


20. army men - charlotte sometimes
cause tears are selfish and you aren't anymore

21. anything at all - cara salimando
but i can feel it between my fists as i close my hands around this
i don't know why i ever fooled myself into believing anything that i heard


22. blood, tears & gold - hurts
love grows cold
blood, tears, and gold
won't make it any better

This mixtape features a number of female vocalists I recently discovered, including Karen Elson and, a favourite of mine, Charlotte Sometimes. Metric's downtempo White Gold is gorgeous, I especially love the lyrics quoted. Another standout is the last song by Hurts, I love the echoing vocals.
