The extended data on the CD says this was burned 2004-12-31, but my strongest memory is that it was in the CD player while I taxied some party peoples to Chad's university rooftop for fireworks viewing, Independence Day 2005. The themes were contrasting male and female vocals, and mostly cover tunes.
    "bois n durls" 12/31/04
  1. Raymond & Peter - Introducing Tony ("I've seen these fuckin potheads...")
    don't ask why this belonged, but I found it endlessly entertaining.
  2. Tom Jones & Chrissie Hynde - Lust For Life
  3. Rasputina - Brand New Key
  4. The Strokes - The Modern Age
  5. Sneaker Pimps - Tesko Suicide
  6. Smash Mouth - Walking On the Sun
  7. Bow Wow Wow - Fools Rush In
  8. Cherry Poppin Daddies - The Ding-Dong Daddy of the D-Car Line
  9. Björk - There's More To Life Than This
    not a very representative Björk tune, and I tended to skip it a lot
  10. 7 signature clips from the boss of the old-school coin-op "Sinistar" game
    This totally didn't belong here, and I started just skipping over them after like the third listen
  11. Brak - I Love You, Baby
  12. Sleater-Kinney - The Professional
  13. System of a Down - Bounce
    not my favorite SoaD track, but it was shorter than the better options from Toxicity
  14. The Murmurs - Toy
  15. Butthole Surfers - Intelligent Guy
    Definitely not up to the caliber of Pepper or Cough Syrup, but it was short
  16. Tara Lynne Band - The Clutches
  17. Cab Calloway - Is You Is Or Is You Ain't My Baby
    I like some old-school swing and jazz, I think this track helped me decide I just don't like Cab
  18. Art of Noise - Opus 4
  19. Front 242 - Motion
    One of my top 3 favorite 242 tracks, sadly there is no youtubes treatment
  20. Jewel - Who Will Save Your Soul
  21. Frank Zappa - Jones Crusher
  22. Kim Carnes - I’ll Be Here Where The Heart Is
  23. Robert Palmer - I Didn't Mean to Turn You On
  24. Liz Phair - Go West
  25. Lard - Sylvestre Matuschka
  26. Althea & Donna - Uptown Top Ranking
    another youtube failure: the audible videos feature an absolutely horrible version of the song
  27. Tindersticks - Traveling Light

The metadata on the "female vox mix" a few entries ahead wants us to believe it was burned in 1994, and I know that ain't right, so take the metadata dating with a grain of salt.

Update 2016: I made a Youtube playlist, swapped in more representative Bjoerk and SoaD songs, tracked down a better recording of Uptown Top Ranking.
