A couple months ago when I was burning some CDs for J.G. (the second Firewater mix, the Ted Leo covers mix, etc.), I decided to throw together a mix just of some songs I'd been enjoying lately that I thought she'd like, including some of my favorite Baltimore artists on tracks 11-13. This was also one of those funny mixes where a subliminal theme kind of ended up emerging when I realized that 4 of the songs have "want" or "wanted" or "wanna" in the title.
