    You could pick 4 songs from each record and then put 4 more unreleased songs (like "Scattered") on the Cd...When I burn people 3EB mixes, I try to stick to stuff that they wouldn't have heard on the radio. Either way, the holy trinity from the ST ("The Background," "Motorcycle Drive By," and "God of Wine") has to go on there!! Good luck!!

    ya i'm trying to put the true 3eb songs that she wouldn't normally here...ur right definately motorcycle drive by and god of wine, two of my personal favorites. i don't know if she's gonna appreciate it since she's one of those who's all about the beat instead of lyrics...even though i think those are awesome musically! but we'll see...sometimes i think they need an accquired taste. i can't wait to see what she says!!

    ya those are really good ones...but i didn't put any from ursa on it. here's what i have:
    wounded
    10 days late
    never let you go
    deep inside of you
    slow motion blinded
    forget myself
    crystal baller
    narcolepsy
    semi-charmed life
    jumper
    graduate
    how's it going to be
    i want you
    the background
    motorcycle drive by
    god of wine

    i ended up putting more of the widely known songs even though i didn't want to....i should've just picked them at random! lol you can't go wrong with any of them! i think this will be a slow transition into 3EB though

    There's too much good stuff to do just one CD, in my opinion you should just trick your friend! Make one CD with all the songs you know she'll like, singles, uptempo songs, you know the catchy stuff, then once she's hooked, make her another one, with the hardcore stuff, after all is said and done, she'll thank you for it :P

    haha i agree! and i think that's what i did, with the exception of god of wine and motorcycle drive by and a few others, i'm not sure she'll fully appreciate them yet, but i'm gonna tell her to go into it with an open mind....if i know her she'll just say dude this is wierd but i'm soooo hoping she'll love it like i do!

    yeah- VERY difficult to do. 3eb had a "contest" to come up with a setlist for the most recent tour including 18 songs or something and it seriously took me a ton of time. Unfortunately apparently nobody actually won the contest since nothing ever came of it :-/
