The biggest problem I'm having is figuring out whether to put songs that
are in similar keys or that have similar "feels" together, or keep them
separate. Here's a good example: I had Bleu's "Sayonara" followed by
Fountains of Wayne's "I've Got A Flair"... well, as it turns out, they're
pretty much the same tempo, have a similar flavor, and, I believe, are in
the same key.
I'm really not looking forward to discovering that all the songs I like
are pretty much the same song. :)
