There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Tom, thanks for the link! Now I want to find most of those mash ups!
it's simple: a remix takes one existing song by one artist/band, and reworks that song to sound slightly different; a mash-up takes two different songs by two different artists/bands, and combines them into a completely new song. That's how I explain the difference.
I went with something like that, although you put it more succiently, but it didn't convience her. Monday I'm taking in some mash ups I have so she can hear the difference.
so, I am listening to my first full Guster album. what do people think of them? I'm liking it.
Let me start by saying: Pixies!
As a side note for LA peeps, when the Foo Fighters play here in August (Afoostically, no less), Frank Black will be opening for them one of the two nights they will be playing.

so, I am listening to my first full Guster album. what do people think of them?
I heard them for the first time just yesterday. I have to say I wasn't paying any great amount of attention but I can remember thinking "This song is very Elliot Smith-y. This song is very Simon and Garfunkel-y. This song is very ..."
This is for Corwood: Tom Verlaine attempting to teach "Venus" to a clueless Richard Hell:
Love it.

I love Guster. Which album are you listening to? The one I know best is Keep It Together.
