I prefer to keep things authentic and alive. I rarely, if ever, walk a beaten path (even if it is easier and more accessible). You might say I'm difficult.
Well, today I made a decision. An executive, and uncharacteristic, decision. I am going to copy the idea of another person. Just cause I like it. And I do what I want.
Erin Dean, who copied this off of someone else (I don't judge it. I'm doing it too.), made a Deserted Island playlist. One that could be burned onto a regular audio CD. 80 minutes or less.
The essentials. The songs that would last you however long on an island. Alone. The ultimate hermit status.
Feel free to question my morals, my life goals, my persona in general based on this list of songs.
