Notes on Compiling a Mixed Tape for Your Teenage Crush a Decade Later

~ Sonya

record player, vinyl– Hey Ya!

Dunno. Best way to start? What if she doesn’t like Outkast? Then again, if she doesn’t, maybe I’m wrong about this.

– Remember Me

She liked BSP. I used to watch her play air guitar at the student union’s Friday night disco to this.

– Get Over You

There I go again, being subtle. See also:

– Nothing Compares 2 U

Exhibit A

– There’s a Ghost in my House

Exhibit B

– Laura

Because she’s still my superstar.

– Call Me

Call to action and all that… Anytime!

– Boys Don’t Cry

Just in case she won’t call me. Bit too passive aggressive, maybe?

    1. Yes, indeed. What if she doesn’t listen obsessively to the lyrics, like he does – she won’t even notice most of the things that worry him.

      Thank you 🙂
