HELP!
I need some help with a mixtape. I'm looking for songs about nature or the environment. Lovesongs to Mother Earth, rants about its destruction, sarcastic asides that are still catchy lil ditties. Anything the MOG-verse can come up with, I'd like to hear them.
Thanks in advance good citizens of MOG-itopia.
P.S. - The only ones I can think of so far are Tegan & Sara's "Our Trees" and The Talking Heads' "Nothing But Flowers". There's a Neil Young song I've heard before, but can't think of the name.....

OK, so, may be this is a stretch, but a little post apocalypse life at ground zero love song from the HOT, HOT new album by The Presidents of the United States of America, These Are the Good Times People - Warhead

I'm not quite sure if this is what you are looking for, but I think "The Gold Finch and the Red Oak Tree" by Ted Leo and the Pharmacists is beautiful and might fit.

Here's a few more I found on a quick search of my music collection:
Treehugger -Kimya Dawson & Antsy Pants
~YWTHawPQ2Af.mp3~
If Trees Could Speak - The Flashbulb (sorry, I dont have an mp3 of this one, but you might want to track it down)
I'll try to think of some more. good luck with your mix!

Same as deg5000 still trying to figure out this new stuff - can't seem to get an mp3 into a comment for now - one more try:

"The Gold Finch and the Red Oak Trees" - Ted Leo and the Pharmacist
Tree Hugger - Kimya Dawson
I hope it works this time!

With a Mog name like "hawaiianpunch" I can't be sure if you have anything to do with Hawaii. (After all, "Hawaiian Punch" isn't about Hawaii.) Still, take a look at Melinda Caroll, if that artist isn't too slow for your mix tape. Brother Noland also had some environmental concerns, along with Pekelo, Keola Beamer, etc.

Wahiawa, of course I'm from HI. It's a play on the words, "Hawaiian" and "Punch".
Thanks for the suggestions, though.
My Trusted MOGs
Deg, that Kimya Dawson song is so PERFECT for this mix. Thanks again.

I'm so glad it fits! :)
