My Wife Went to Book Club and All I Did Was Make this Lousy Mixed Tape

You know how it is, time alone, so let's break out the cassettes and play DJ. I don't pod, sorry. And, yes, this tape is filled with more recent stuff than I tend to like to put in one mix, but I hadn't made a tape in a few months and the turntable needs a new cartridge, so that limits the golden oldies (like New Order's "Love Vigilantes," which should really follow the Shout Out Louds).
