Heya guys

So I've just started seeing someone I really like and I want to make her a mix tape cd

I dont want to ask her what her favourite songs are because it'd be a bit of a random question!

I know she likes cute and acoustic stuff, such as Hazy by Rosi Golan and Need by Hana Pestle

Does anyone have any ideas of similar songs?

Gabrielle Aplin's cover of The Power of Love (as featured in the new John Lewis advert).

I don't have any suggestions, but I think your idea is just too cute. I wish someone made me a mixtape

are you making her a tape or a CD?...a tape would be much cooler, takes more effort and care.

thanks for all the great songs guys! So far, I'm looking at

Beautiful - Trading Yesterday
I won't give up - Jazon Mraz
The power of love - Gabrielle Aplin

Thanks for the other suggestions though! Keep them coming I'm making her a cd, because I wouldn't even know how to go about making a tape, nor does she have a tape player!

Thing with tapes though is that you can't listen to them on your computer or transfer it to your iPod/phone unless you copy it to a CD first. Do many people still have tape players these days?

Do they have to be "cute" songs?

Just make them a mixtape of songs that are important to you...

Who'd have known? By Lily Allen always makes me smile. It's about the start of a relationship and has the most relate able lyrics. Just don't watch the music video it ruins the sweetness.

CD's you just select the tracks and burn it..anyone can do it in about 10 mins.
To go through the whole effort of making a mix tape is more special and romantic...it will mean more than just a CD. I bet she has a million mix CDs
And in return If she dosnt go through the effort of finding a tape deck(if she dosnt have one) so she can play it even once...then shes not a keeper.

Congrats on your date.

Are you a Lip Service watcher by chance? I love Save It by Paper Aeroplanes too.
