Calling and Not Calling  
So I've become a compulsive playlist-maker. I know, I know, I'm so late on the bandwagon! As a matter of fact, the wagon is gone. It's just me and a push cart. Following the fading tread marks, yelling at everyone to just slow down already, I've almost caught up! Anywhoodle, here's a playlist of songs-about-love-that-aren't-necessarily-happy. A haphazard collection of guilty pleasures, personal treasures, mementos, etc. The order is kind of wonky, but it goes something like sad, super sad, angsty, a little longing, some emo, and then a little kiss-my-ass, I hate you (but still love you, but hate you, etc.). Hope you like it! Comment if you take, I guess. But don't feel obligated or anything. Because lurking is an art, really.

Warning: My playlists are usually obscenely long, due to my disdain for editing in general. Feel free to modify at will. Also feel free to ignore the commentary that my aforementioned disdain for editing keeps me from leaving out. I know everyone is not simply dying to know what I think about music, life, love, and assorted shenanigans.

Calling and Not Calling

Song List:
1. "Come Pick Me Up" by Ryan Adams (We start off with a classic.)
2. "Kathleen" by Josh Ritter
3. "Change is Hard" by She & Him
4. "Hummingbird" by Langhorne Slim (I've always been waiting for something, someone to come pull me through, now I see that it's all up to me, there ain't nothing no one else can do)
5. "Green and Gray" by Nickel Creek
6. "Does He Love You?" by Rilo Kiley
7. "No Hope in the Air" by Laura Marling (BBC6 Session) (Also, this song is beautiful beyond all reason.)
8. "Bella Donna" by The Avett Brothers
9. "Cannonball" by Brandi Carlisle
10. "The Funeral" by Band of Horses
11. "Calling and Not Calling My Ex" by Okkervil River (P.S. Will Sheff is a GOD.)
12. "The Frug" by Rilo Kiley
13. "Use Somebody" by Kings of Leon
14. "Screaming Infidelities" by Dashboard Confessional (I mean, I know but come on! You know you want to sing along.)
15.  "Gentlemen" by mewithoutYou
16. "Gives You Hell" by The All American Rejects (haha! So much fun to scream at your passengers/friends/downstairs neighbors who hate you for being so loud!)

EDIT: I've just been informed that some of the songs don't work. I'm sorry.  Also I have little to no idea how to fix that. I'll try really hard.
EDIT AGAIN: I've fixed it? I think.  Let me know if it still won't work.

Stop it! I can't help myself...the Second Gleam was just too damn good. Perhaps their next album will suck, and then I can quit them for reals. Right now, though, I'm in that angsty Heath Ledger phase where I just flip other bands over and pretend they're who I want them to be. Such is life, I suppose.

I don't get what you mean with Heath Ledger, but I'm going to pretend because it sounds like a cool metaphor.
And you missed an awesome night in the apt.
Bethany = hilarious.

You know? When he leaves Jake to get married and there's that sad sex scene where he just flips her over? Perhaps?

Also, I'm sad I missed Bethany. But glad she let off some steam.

Oh, hi! I'm Caroline. Glad you like the playlist! Sara's been pestering me to post some of these (actually just to post at all), so I'm glad someone other than she enjoys them! And yes! KINGS OF LEON!
