Oh! Give us your vote, if you know what's good for you

Hello everyone, and welcome to another beautiful evening, here on Looks Like Coffee, Tastes Like Juice. Now, it's been getting very warm these last couple days, which has me thinking about the summer time more and more. Graduation is close at hand and I've been mentally preparing myself for countless days of lazing about, playing guitar and recording music. So, I figured there would be no better way to really prepare for the summer than making, yeah you guessed it, a summer mixtape. This activity usually takes place sometime in mid-June, but I thought I'd get an early start on it, y'know, being the clever individual I am. So, without further ado, I present to you, my dear readers, an official Looks Like Coffee, Tastes Like Juice Mixtape.

Slightly Less Epic Second Post

I'm feeling awfully lightheaded this evening but that could just be the haircut. Yes, my hair looks as if it's been attacked by a suburban housewife in the middle of her lawn on a hot July day. I actually don't mind it as much as I thought I might. For those of you who don't know me, my late afro was a marvelous sight to behold, and that's why I figure this event is important enough to base a whole post full of drama and grandeur on.

As a gift to help you cope with the grief of a surely great loss, here's a couple of tracks about hair. For reasons I'm only too familiar with, people seem to have an emotional attachment to their hair and here's a couple songs that showcase that emotional attachment in full flight.

Hair - The Cowsills

Just a little note about this song, I found it on a 1969 AM Hits compilation album that belongs to my father. My father loves ABBA. Finding this song was a nice surprise.

Cut Your Hair - Pavement

This is from a BBC Evening Session. I feel REALLY cliche for posting this, but this song is impossible not to like.
