Yeah, but I'd be a little hesitant to make the theme too specific. For example, if you said "covers", one or more people might not have lots of good stuff in that area, so they'd be forced to either not participate, or post second-rate tunes.
I'd prefer something that gave people a little more flexibility. Maybe "music to suit a particular mood/activity". You name your own mood/activity and build a mix around it.

Did you finish it? Where's the tracklist for people to review?
To be honest, i decided to scrap the playlist I had going. After a couple test listens I wasn't happy with the selection. I will try and put together a LOVE mix for y'all instead.

I had a slight delay, due to my home PC crashing. It's back up again. Hoping to finalize something by the weekend.
I'll start the Love party then, as it was a quicker selection process from my shortlist than I thought, kinda fell into place quite quickly:
1Gal & Dedee -Roque Baños
2Toxic -Mark Ronson Feat. Ol' Dirty Bastard & Tiggers
3Whole Lotta Love -Hayseed Dixie
4You probably couldn't see for the lights but you were staring staight at me -Arctic Monkeys
5Sex! -Supergrass
6Lily (My One And Only) -Smashing Pumpkins
7Stiggs Inn Love -Midfield General
8I See -MJ Cole
9All I Need - Air
10Labour Of Love -Frente!
11You Belong To Me -Bob Dylan
12A Grand Love Theme -Kid Loco
13Lovesong [Extended Mix] -The Cure
14Love Will Tear Us Apart -Nouvelle Vague
15I'll Never Fall in Love Again -Jack Jones
16Don't Want You No More -Mano Negra
After a short intro track to set the mood, it's done in 3 parts... the first to try and portray the emotion and all that's good when first meeting someone... the second the seriousness of falling in love, and finally the cynical downwards spiral that leads to a broken heart (tongue in cheek here! ). I haven't necessarily been too original here, but I hope there's some stuff that leaps out and grabs folk for the first time.
Enjoy, and feel free to critique 🙂
