Also having an early shy period as a kid, I can appreciate the feeling. hug

In general, the drum machines and/or samples wore me out after a while.

I'd have to go with Goodbye Girl by Go West as my favorite of this set.
Mos Def trying to channel Marvin Gaye gave me a chuckle. smile

I thought I was the only one who noticed that, especially the soulful wailing near the end of the song. lol

This is a great mix! I was also painfully, painfully shy as a kid, so I definitely relate to the sentiment. The only track I knew was "Run to the Sun", which I adore as well. It seems so rare for the concept of love to appear in mainstream hip hop, and it is as brilliantly refreshing now as it was then. Elsewhere, I really dug the Go West track (go figure being an 80s nut) and Lupe Fiasco. I hear him often paired with Janelle Monae as a torchbearer of intelligent, edgy R&B, and this track did not disappoint.

Great job!
