Shape Your Eyes by Shutting Them: A Poetry Book's Source Music Mix

This is a mix of songs whose lyrics get quoted, alluded to, reworked, or otherwise referenced in my debut book of poems, Shape Your Eyes By Shutting Them, published by Athabasca University Press. This mix sequences songs in the order in which their excerpts appear in the book. (Some poems quote no music, and some poems quote more than one song.) The mix includes all songs listed in the book's Acknowledgments, together with other songs from which the book uses short excerpts like titles or brief phrases. More than just further acknowledgments, this mix also means remuneration: Mixcloud pays royalties (to labels at least, and hopefully to artists too). And many artists featured in this mix are Canadian. Support Can con! Full track list is at https://wp.me/poR4A-Tx
