Announcing the Queso Club Mixtape!

We here at the Queso Club have been hard at work for the past few days. We decided to do something truly special for those of you who have been dedicated to us. We know it's a small crowd, but we appreciate nonetheless. Before I describe just what we are doing, here's a little bit of history for you. So far, our most popular topic is the songs that remind of us women. I received many comments about it in my day to day life, and it has many views as far as our blog stats go. We decided to compile all of those songs, add a few bonus tracks, and make the Queso Club Mixtape!

So far, we selected our bonus tracks, compiled a list of all the songs, and from there, we voted as to which songs should be on the mixtape. Because we're awesome, we're able to edit the songs to where it would be us singing them instead  of the original artist! Nifty! (P.S. We realize three out of the four of us have never received proper vocal training and aren't the best singers. Trust me. I set the bar for terrible as far as singing goes.)

Anyway, I'm sure you're wondering about the bonus tracks. Whatever could they be? That's why I chose this topic. Each us is going to list our three bonus tracks, and give a little insight as to why it reminds us of them. Before I start, I would like to say all three of my songs have a level of emotional attachment to them, so keep that in mind as you read it. 

3. Born to Run by Bruce Springsteen 

This song can be hard to follow lyrically because good ol' Brucey has a knack for jumbling words. Nothing against that. Personally, I'm a massive fan. Essentially, the song is about him truly confessing his love for a women named Wendy and telling her that should escape town together. Man, I wish I had Bruce's courage to go to this particular woman and tell her these things. If I knew she would say yes, I would probably do it. I would probably hold off on that "everlasting kiss" for though. Truthfully, I've had an interest (some may call it a crush, but I don't like that word) on this woman for around two years. I think she even fits most of my perfect spouse description. Anyway, I would totally beat it out of town with her. I think it would be great. Also, if I had a time machine, I would take her and some friends (looking at you, Sweet N' Low and Smooth Jazz) and go see the Bruce Springsteen 1982 Born to Run tour. It would be epic. 

2. Thank You by Led Zeppelin 

Is it possible for us to make a post without eluding to Led Zeppelin in some way or form? It makes me wonder... 

This song is both musically and lyrically a masterpiece. I can't really pick a favorite Led Zeppelin song, but this is up there.  Robert Plant (singer of Zep) wrote this song about his wife, and she was obviously a worthy muse. This song reminds me of the same women that Born to Run reminds me of. Once again, it is a confession of love to me. I held interest for two years, so if the sun indeed refuse to shine, I would probably still be smitten. Also, our kids would be geniuses. They would probably excel at everything. 

1. Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic by The Police 

I have a love/hate relationship with this song. When I discovered it reminded of this mysterious girl, it followed me around for a solid week. I couldn't get rid of it. It played twice in a playlist of around 100 songs in the span of thirty minutes with the playlist on shuffle. I respected the song because I enjoy The Police's music, but this song haunted me. That being said, this women recently sauntered into my life, and I don't know what to think about her. It's a mixture of attraction and annoyed I guess. Also, I'm annoyed by my attraction. So, I'm not sure what to do. That's why I included it on the mixtape. 

To close things out, we voted to include twenty songs out of the thirty two compiled, so these may not be on the mixtape. It's up to you to find out. Also, just because this are my picks doesn't mean I'll be singing them on the mixtape. I wouldn't want to spoil the fun of having a code name. 

Freshly yours,
