Being in the South if there wasn't anyone sleeping around the house, I'd have Little Feet on"Cold . Cold, Cold" but now, I'm listening to sirens and the keyboard. It's from the soundtract to My Morning, by myself.

Well the lead singer, worked in a coffee place, they are from alberta I think, and the coffee was 90 cents, so everytime someone gave a dollar, he would say nickel back? and that is what they named their band. awesome :P

Actually, I am getting into the Beatles right now. I never did as a kid. I was always anti-establishment.

I have overcome my prejudice and closed-mindedness and recluctantly and now joyously realize what great songwriters they really were.

Without a doubt - melodys and hooks that can carry on for generations.

Fascinating too is the transformation from cool, cute rock guys (I can understand why my wife and other girls fell all over these Liverpuldians) to experimental to writers of melodies that will last a lifetime.

Almost as great as the great one - Mozart.

ps. gotta' check out the World Lounge scene - an eclectic mix of Euro DJ/Indian/Turkish etc... dance/groove beat...

Vista,
I don't know if you will miss this or not, but have you ever listened to Deep Forest.

Peapod, thanks. I just checked a few samples on amazon.

(I'll probably pick up something with another amazon order. My wife and I add a CD to any books orders to get free delivery.)

It just goes to show there is so much interesting music around but one must go beyond the radio dial to hear it.

Right now I'm listening to "An American Prayer"...the first thing the Doors released after Morrison died. Man he sounds stoned.

I'm listening to The Prodigy - Smack My B*tch Up right now ... you know, it's an "old" song ('90s), but it's OK ...

Right now I'm listening to the Bloody Chicklets...not sure what the name of the song is.

No, no, I mean I get an empty browser window, no address in the address line, zip point nada. There was, for a brief second, a quick flash of the address but then it disappeared.

This is most likely a result of my computer woes, it has been acting very badly since yesterday. I am having some trouble accessing my files at times plus I am getting the spinning wheel of death (oh never mind, it's a mac thing) and I must now do some troubleshooting to find out why it is feeling so cranky. After I'm done, I will try your link again.

It is winging its way to you as we speak. I kind of wondered if that might be the trouble. Mind you, I still have something serious happening with this old beast. Oh my. The heart-stopping blinking question mark kindo f thing, too.

Hey tkmadison!! You should come introduce yourself in the new intro forum My playlist is around 1700 songs, so it will be a while till I'm upto 4000.. Mind you, I go onto deleting crazes every now and then

Andem, I haven't been into downloading songs - I haven't had the time but I do want to get copies of my old obscure retro-80's favourites.

Can you advise how I go about it - a program, where to go. I've heard KAAZA(?) isn't so great - many problems with recording quality etc...
