I don't usually create playlists by artist or album, I create them to suit my different moods or situations. For instance:

Exercise
High Energy
Relaxation
Rock and Roll Classics
Favorite Old Hymns
Etc...

As a result, I have a lot of redundancy in my playlists. For example, a couple of my Fleetwood Mac songs are in several playlists.

[Janak Parekh]

Nice selection, Dave (well, except for Shania, I can't stomach her :razzing:). BTW: Evanescence is no longer obscure -- they've made it on top 40 and alt-rock stations, and I've heard it in cars at least once a day walking around.

Brad: I used to do it that way, but I like full-album listening now, especially those which are supposed to have a flow. To each their own. ;)

Bookmarked. Some of your tastes are very close to mine. I've tried Fiona Apple several times and it is hit or miss and have never brought myself to by a CD.

[Dave Beauvais]

... I've tried Fiona Apple several times and it is hit or miss and have never brought myself to by a CD.
She grows on you. :) Her first CD has some really good songs and a couple that I wish I could scratch off the surface of the disc. :lol: That's why being able to rip discs is so important to me; I can listen to only the songs I want whenever and wherever I want. Copy protected CDs that force me to listen in a real CD player with no playlist that would allow me to skip those "bad" songs just piss me off.

I found Amerigo Poppy (http://www.amerigopoppy.com/) while reading up on PHPNuke on another discussion forum. The guy who does their Web site posted a link to it and I was hooked. Although their entire CD is available for free as MP3s on their site, I bought the CD that day.

... BTW: Evanescence is no longer obscure -- they've made it on top 40 and alt-rock stations ...
Yes, you're correct. I really like the song Bring Me to Life but it's so overplayed on the radio now that I don't even listen to it on my own very much. When I first heard Evanescence, I wasn't sure it was my type of music, but Amy Lee's voice really grabbed me. Her powerful vocals shine through the heavy guitars and such and make for a unique sound that I've really come to enjoy.

Here are mine.

:rock on dude!:

Excellent taste.

Right now, I just have the new Delerium CDs on my card. Too much other stuff on it to fit music.

[ctmagnus]

(well, except for Shania, I can't stomach her :razzing:).

Bleh. Me three.* :wink:

I used to do it that way, but I like full-album listening now, especially those which are supposed to have a flow.

I usually do playlists except for the albums that flow together. Nothing annoys me like listening to a playlist in random order, having one song fade out and the next one kick in at full volume in the middle of a convergance from the previous one on that album.

* True story: She's actually fickle! It was witnessed by someone I know, backstage at a concert a few years ago.

PS: 1000th post!

:olympic: :beer: :way to go: :alfdance: :x-mas: :zzz:

[ctmagnus]

Amy Lee's voice really grabbed me.

This mortal coil (just 1 track 'song to the siren' with Liz Frazer from the Cocteau Twins)

Lemon Jelly (how did that get there :D )
The Polyphonic Spree (makes me smile)

Nice to see a lot of people listening to non poppy stuff.

[Hyperluminal]

I actually don't have music on my Pocket PC. :oops:

Well, actually I made an exception for one group, which will probably get me the award for the most obscure music here: Regina (www.reginakogoj.com/ang). They're Slovenian, and they sing in Slovenian, which I don't speak. It's weird at first, but I got used to it.
I guess they sing Slovenian pop. :)
Anyway, they're really good, and they give away a lot of their songs on their site, so I suggest you all listen to them. ;)

Who else do I like?

Enya, the Coors, Bon Jovi, some Billy Joel, Vanessa Mae, Roxette, Celine Dion, etc...
