That's the name of a playlist and project. If anyone else wants to partake, I think that'd result in some positive vibes!
I slept in a girl's arms and she slept in mine last night and everything was alright.

The reason the Real Centennial has 160 songs is because I kept adding and adding. Everybody probably has their own Real Centennial and I think it'd be fun to share. If you have any questions about any of the songs or want to hear them, I'll send them to you. I just plopped down my Top 25 Most Played in iTunes first and took out one of them that accidentally got in there, and then started adding. The only full album on there, "Building Nothing Out Of Something" probably should have a few less tracks on there. Thanks to Joelio, Sissonian and Sleepy Steve for providing some of these tunes. And like the internet for the rest.
So if this was like a recipe, it'd go like:
1. Add 160 songs you can listen to at any time in any order.
2. Make a playlist entitled "The Real Centennial".
3. Hit shuffle in "The Real Centennial".
4. Move those songs into a new playlist entitled "Play Off This.".
5. Re-order songs with extreme discretion (if need be).
6. Have fun and shit.
Go watch "Audition" and then pee yourself in horror.
I love you all.
Luv,
Jason C

Posted by: jayyme at March 30, 2006 03:54 PMIt's not like I jizz over it. I'd rather jizz over, say, All Of My Everything or Happiness is All the Rage. That song is just good is all. And I'm ultra emo.
