MEMORY TAPES: 12TH SEPTEMBER 2011

Normally Memory Tapes is about boys and girls getting together. This week, it's about exes. Sorcha O'Higgins writes...

"My ex-boyfriend and I stayed pretty good friends when we broke up a few years ago and made each other mixtapes for each other's birthdays afterwards.

"This one is pretty funny though, because I made him one for his birthday and when he gave me one for mine, it had loads of the same songs on it! Cheating...? I think so..."

Sorcha couldn't lay her hands on the tape, so no artwork this week, but she did provide us with a list of the songs which featured on both tapes, and there's quite a few:

Archie Bronson Outfit - Dart for my Sweetheart

Belle and Sebastian - Seeing Other People

Nina Simone - Baltimore

The White Stripes - Icky Thump

The Beatles - I'm only Sleeping

Aphex Twin - Alberto Balsam

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - Skin of My Yellow Country Teeth

Interpol - Untitled

Bob Dylan - Buckets of Rain

Go on, send Lauren a Memory Tape. You know you want to.
