BitchTapes: Cruise Music (Cruisic)

I'm going on a cruise tomorrow, and I've compiled a list of songs to put me (and you!) in a cruisin' state of mind. Though I'm imagining myself jamming to these tracks on a massive boat wearing a caftan and some wide-legged pants—daiquiri in hand—they're also great for dry-land listening. So grab your boat drink and let's set sail on a wave of cruisic!

1. Track list:
2. Ease Your Feet in the Sea: Belle and Sebastian. Dippin' our toes in before we set sail!
3. Oceanside: The Decemberists. Setting the mood with a little oceanside pillow talk.
4. Orinoco Flow: Enya. Sail away! Sail away! Sail away!
5. The Sea is My Soil: Astrud Gilberto. What would a cruise be without some Gilberto?
6. Sloop John B: The Beach Boys. I love this song, but I hope the first mate doesn't get drunk and eat up all of my corn on this cruise.
7. Girl Sailor: The Shins. “Sail her, don't sink her”!
8. Rock the Boat: Yo La Tengo. A cover, yes, but a fun one.
9. Boat Drinks: Jimmy Buffett. My entire cruising philosophy comes from this song.
10. Cruisin': Huey Lewis and the News. Obviously!
11. Sailing: Christopher Cross. The last track on the mix, to take us into the sunset in style.

If you have a cruising song to share, leave it in the comments! Bon Voyage!
