Ripples Spread On The Ceiling; A Sunday Mixtape

Hello everyone, I hope you're all having a wonderful, lazy Sunday. The sky is still gray over here, but the weather is getting slightly warmer, just in time for April, and I'm content with that. I thought I'd treat all my readers today with a little more music then typing. Now, I've seen this Sunday Mixtape thing done by many people, so I thought I'd give it a shot myself. So, enjoy this collection of lazy songs, hopefully, they'll compliment your day very well.

Sunday Morning - The Velvet Underground (Off The Velvet Underground & Nico 1967)

You probably could've guessed that this song was going to be on here.

Late One Sunday - American Analog Set (Off Late One Sunday & The Following Morning 1997)

13 minutes and 13 seconds of pure blissful soundscape via American Analog Set

Autumn's Here - Norman Nehmetallah (Off Sophia's Dream Bonus Disc 2008)

A early, fuzz-filled cover of a Hawsley Workman song.

Once Upon A Time - Air (Off Pocket Symphony 2007)

Ah, Air.

Eastern Glow - The Album Leaf (Off In A Safe Place 2004)

I'm getting lazy with these little descriptions.

Snowy Atlas Mountain - Fionn Regan (Off The End Of History 2006)

This song actually makes you feel like you're on a snowy atlas mountain.

The Abomination - Art In Manila (Off Set The Woods On Fire 2007)

I don't even know why I put this on here.

The Funeral - Band Of Horses (Off Everything All The Time 2006)

I'm starting to notice a trend in quite a bit of Band Of Horses songs. What is this trend? They all sound exactly the same! Do I mind? Not one bit.

Lay Lady Lay - Bob Dylan (Off Nashville Skyline 1969)

Lay across my big brass bed.

Lake Michigan - Rogue Wave (Off Asleep At Heaven's Gate 2007)

I first heard Rogue Wave while watching Heroes. Does this help you understand anything about the band? No, it does not, but I just thought that I should mention

Not Even Jail - Interpol (Off Antics 2004)


"Oh, but hold it still, darling, see your hair's so pretty
Can't you feel the warmth of my sincerity?
You make motion when you cry
You're making peoples lives feel less private"

How do they come up with this stuff?

and the grand finale ...

Chicago (Acoustic) - Sufjan Stevens (Off The Avalanche 2006)

No explanation is really needed for me putting this on here.

Enjoy
