myTunes ~ 15 songs that u never knew u needed 2 know about LA

Everyone has a special talent... Take my Mother, for example. She can knock back an entire box of Franzia before Katie Couric's sad attempt at the 6 o'clock news and still stay through Marie Osmond's doll-hawking attempt at sanity on QVC's Midnight Madness.

And although I, too, have a penchant for the plastic handle, I never was lucky enough to receive my Mother's maternal tolerance (obviously a trait carried on some XX-chromosome). 3 shots of TaKa (Russian for "dead liver") vodka, and I'm 3 sheets to the wind before Sex and the City's sorry excuse at asexual episode of PG-13 syndicational standards.

But I do have ONE bankable talent that'll be (literal) music to your ears. I am the undisputed (albeit self-proclaimed) Master of Making the Ultimate MixTapes (or, more technologically accurate, MixCD's). So, enjoy the fruits of my god-given tune selecting talents.
