"You Are My Joy"

I recently spent a ton of time putting together a indie rock mix tape for a wedding. Turns out that finding good wedding songs isn't as easy as one might think. A bunch of the songs I thought would make wonderful wedding tunes turned out to either be break-up songs or mean-spirited upon closer listening. And that frankly will not fly. Alas, after searching high and low I finally came up with a set list I feel pretty solid about. Since a lot of work went into it and I'm sure it's not the last wedding mix tape that'll ever be made I present it here for your listening/copying pleasure. I've got another 2 or 3 discs worth of stuff lined up which I plan to track order soon, so I'll try to get those posted at some point too.
