BOO!! Ghost Songs

Theme mix #2 is complete in my series of mixes for Jamie's drive-in commute. I got a few suggestions for this one from D'Anne, but mostly I came up with them my own self. The theme is simple enough: songs with the word "ghost" in the title. I was inspired by the recent Concrete Blonde show, because I didn't expect them to play my favorite song of theirs. Then they did and it was awesome. I am now on a quest to find a karaoke spot in town that has "Ghost Of A Texas Ladies' Man" in its collection.

Here's how the mix turned out:

Aw, man - I didn't know about this song in time! But I'll save it for a "Ghosts: The Sequel" mix!

The National's Anyone's Ghost is the song I have listened to the most the past three days. Also, "Walking with a Ghost"? Either Teagan and Sara or the White Stripes' original....

"Anyone's Ghost" is one of my favorites on the new National record. I cannot include Tegan and Sara on any of my mixes for political reasons, BUT, I would consider the White Stripes cover...
