These Songs Be Ringin' In My Ears

Alright yo . . . Jen left me a comment asking for good marathoning music. I figured others of you out there might be looking for some new tunes as well (although, let's be honest . . . most of the tunes on my marathon playlist are hardly "new"). So without further adieu, I present to you . . . in no particular order, the contents of the IRISH CREAM MARATHON MIX (warning: there is plenty of country music on this mix--because cool people aren't afraid to admit they love a little country music)!
