I think last week's mix was pretty darn successful thanks to staying within the boundaries of making a mix. Sometimes it's good for me to have a theme, it keeps me focused and makes me delve further than I normally would. This week's theme is a fairly simple one but has some interesting results. The theme's title is Name Dropping and revolves around songs that happen to have a famous person's name in the title of the song. I've gone from some of the most arty bands out there to some of the most popular, and from some indisputably famous people to some slightly more obscure ones. I hope you all enjoy it, and if you know of any other songs with famous people in the titles feel free to drop them in the comments!!! Have a good weekend!
