This mix from a couple years ago features the anthemic "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" by The Animals, as well as a live cover by Nina Simone, which is heavily sampled for Common's "Misunderstood".
"Suite Judy Blue Eyes" by Crosby, Stills & Nash was playing at a restaurant a couple years ago at just the right moment, which inspired its inclusion in this mix.
Other stuff: Fleetwood Mac's tense "The Chain", Frankie Goes To Hollywood's decadent "Relax", Clipse's arrogant "I'm Not You" featuring Jadakiss, Sinead O'Connor's defiant "Emperor's New Clothes", Bob Dylan's wry "Talking World War III Blues", Bo Diddley's forlorn "Another Sugar Daddy", Frank Black's catchy "She Took All The Money", the joyful "Gotta Hold On To This Feeling" by Junior Walker & The All Stars, the odd "Night Flyer (Force Field)" by Kool Keith alias Mr. Nogatco, Pharoah Sanders' spacey "Astral Traveling", a solo acoustic version of Jackson Browne's "These Days", Barbara Mason's innocent "Yes I'm Ready", a German version of Marlene Dietrich's "Falling In Love Again", Tom Waits' soaring "Take Care Of All My Children" and Arthur Fields' chipper "Ja-da: ja da, ja da, jing jing jing".
