flipping thru friends-friends...planning to shamelessly listen in on these suggestions, so here's some from me.
Biggest specific way I listen to music now is not by album. Never really liked to do that, so I have a lot of soundtrack CD's.
Too much of one flavor at once, and suddenly you're sick of it. Now CD's get ripped to disk right away and either listened to in the shuffle or if I really love them, end up on a mix cd in the car cd collection.
Artist and favorite song(s) of the moment:
Ani Difranco: (To the Teeth album) Cloud Blood, Carry you around, Back Back Back, Wish I may Beck: Diamond Dogs, Nobody's fault but my own Belle and Sebastian: Sleep the clock around Bjork: (Selmasounds album) 107 steps, I've seen it all, New world Cake: I will survive, Building a religion, Rock and roll lifestyle Chris Isaak: Blue hotel Crowded House: Sister Madly, Always take the weather with you Elisa: Luce(tramonti a nord est, Rock your soul, Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen cover, and he's gotta be included too, but he started by the 70's at least. Ditto Elvis Costello, David Bowie, Harry Nilsson, Cat Stephens, etc) Eurythmics: I saved the world today Jason Mraz: 0% interest, Sing glory Joan Jett: Cherry bomb, Hit me with your best shot Joan Osborne: Man in the long black coat (Dylan cover), Spooky, St.Theresa Kate rusby: Let the cold wind blow Magnetic Fields: All the umbrellas in london Manu Chao: Bongo Bong, Je ne t'aime plus, Trapped by love, Que hora son mi corazon moe.: Plane Crash, Captain America, New York City Morphine: Top floor, bottom buzzer, pulled over the car Prince: (ymmv, these tracks have stood the test of time for me, though some I used to like, haven't) Anna Stesia, Thieves in the temple, Starfish and coffee Sara Bareilles: Fairytale (no major label album yet, but you can buy her album at http://www.sarabmusic.com, more than worth it IMO.) Sinead O'Connor: Daddy I'm fine, The last day of our acquaintance, The emperor's new clothes, Sacrifice (Elton John cover) Sublime: Scarlet begonias, Early in the morning Talking Heads: Sugar on my tongue, Nothing but flowers Willy Mason: What's so bad about being bad, Our town, Where the humans eat, Sold my soul
