So, this is where it truly began. The first in this "series" was created pretty much right when my family installed our first CD burner in our computer, and the rest followed quickly. Yeah, we were so cool that we bought one to stick in our computer ourselves. And I could barely believe how awesome it was going to be, to be able to put any combination of songs on a disc that I wanted. In any order. And then to make art for them! Which was made with a shitty program that came with the CD burner, and I didn't seem to mind the default images in the program. Awesome, me.
The point is, these were never my favorite songs (well, Hanson's "Runaway Run" is up there), but it sounded like the kind of title you would use for a mix. And then four more after it. I'm glad I abandoned the thing after five discs. Some of the songs are pretty embarassing (Britney Spears' unreleased songs!?), and there are still traces of my parents' influence (Pat Benatar?!). But hey, it was 2002. I was 15. Um.
If nothing else, they're decent snapshots of what was popular at the time. Maybe.
