Making a goodbye, dear friend mix.
June 6, 2010 4:22 PM   Subscribe

I want to make the perfect goodbye mix for a best friend who is moving cross-country.

Any genre will do. Looking for silly or sappy, but few or no obviously romantic lyrics, preferably. Bonus points for the following themes: summer, new england, colorado/mountains, games, honesty. Thanks!

Oh, and in my humble opinion every mix tape should start with this...

Best answer: Morcheeba - Wonders Never Cease

There are worlds out there
Beyond compare
Going on a journey
Somewhere far out east
Find the time to show you
Wonders never cease
