Wizard School Mix Tape
Hello, forum.
I've been making mix tapes lately for my frequent trips through northeast Arkansas (place is a wasteland). Anyway, I happened upon an incredibly nerdy idea that will only really be appreciated here: I'm burning a mix using the 8 wizard specialist schools as the theme. Here's what I've got now:
Spoiler: Click to Use Magic DeviceMagic - PILÖT
Abjuration
Stop! In the Name of Love - The Supremes
I Am a Rock - Simon & Garfunkel
Conjuration
Call Me - Blondie
Send Me an Angel - Real Life
Divination
Eye In the Sky - Alan Parsons Project
Crystal Ball - Styx
Enchantment
Bette Davis Eyes - Kim Carnes
Invisible Touch - Genesis
Evocation
Great Balls of Fire - Jerry Lee Lewis
Electric Love - BØRNS
Illusion
Dream Police - Cheap Trick
The Grand Illusion - Styx
Necromancy
Died In Your Arms - Cutting Crew
Thriller - Michael Jackson
Transmutation
Turn To Stone - ELO
St Elmo's Fire - John Parr
I was surprised how hard it was to find Illusion songs. Divination was easy; there are lots of songs about people watching people.
If anyone has any suggestions, I'm always trying to improve my mixes. I'm sure there are plenty of songs out there that are not on my frequent list (which, you can probably tell, is mostly the 80's).

Re: Wizard School Mix Tape
I'm sure there are plenty. The first that comes to mind is "private eyes" by Hall and Oats for divination.
