[florabundance]

Hey, i've just got a new ipod nano and i want some new stuff (new for the ipod, it can be old music!) to put onto it.
At the moment i'm an RnB freak, but i'm easy for anything - recommend me something that you're loving at the moment!

 

[rbella]

I love Beck and will always love Beck. His "Guero" CD is awesome!! Oh, and don't forget about Georgie. George Michael will always live in my heart.

 

[Shaquille]

Stop and Stare by One Republic
Summertime by New Kids on the Block

I love almost everything on Mariah Careys new album. Also Keyshia cole's album is amazing!

they are my favorite's right now!

 

[rbella]

Last night, I was listening to Michael Jackson's "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough". I was dancing around like a damned fool. I also love that song from the 80's "Back to Life"? I think that's the name. It goes "however do you want me, however do you need me? however do you want me, however do you need me?" I'm dancin' in my seat right now!!!!!!!!!!

 

[couturesista]

Vintage= Diana Ross ( old school girl crush)
New School= Kerli (new school girl crush, loves her)

 

[NicksWifey]

Gabriel Antonio, I've been listening to a lot him now. I really love his "All Night Long" song.

 

[Dahlia_Rayn]

I second Mirah and Kerli!
Awesome artists!

Also, I have a huge crush on Jason Mraz!
Storm Large is pretty hot too!
Maybe some Anouk, I really like her song Modern World!
I'm a music junkie!

Sigh. New Kids on the Block. I feel like I'm 10 again. LOL.
I love The Corrs. They're a family of 3 sisters and 1 brother from Ireland and they have a pop sound with a traditional Irish sound mixed in. One of the sisters plays the violin and I love when she plays during the songs. They haven't released anything lately, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE them!! Their music always makes me feel better.

 

[rbella]

I'm so old school. I love:
Gladys Knight and the Pips-Midnight Train to Georgia
Ike and Tina Turner-Proud Mary
Chaka Khan featuring Rufus-Sweet Thing
Prince-ALL OF IT, EVERYTHING HE HAS EVER DONE!!
Aretha Franklin-Natural Woman
Norah Jones-most beautiful voice in the whole world!!!
Green Day-Good Riddance

 

[nelyanaphonexia]

well, right now I'm listening to a lot of:

Nine Inch Nails - the Fragile CD is amazing. Dark. Thoughtful. Industrial....Give Reptile, the Frail, Where is Everyone?, Gapital G and The Hand that Feeds a listen
Tool - lots of their stuff is great, great lyrics. Give Lateralus a listen that and Aenima
Red Hot Chili Peppers (always a staple on my iPod)
Coldplay - the Scientist is my fave song from them
Elton John - I have his Greatest Hits CD in my car at all times. I Guess Thats Why They Call It The Blues is my fave song of all times.
Blue October - I love almost all of their stuff. Maybe it's an aquired taste, cause some people don't like their 'sound' but I do. Give Black Orchid, Congratulations, Into the Ocean and Calling You a listen.
The Beatles (they will always be awesome!) - all of their stuff is amazing to me. Too many good songs to list. I would say get all of their CDs and find your personal fave.

David Bowie - listen to I'm Afraid of Americans. It's a nice mix of Bowie and NIN. Also: Ziggy Stardust is awesome.
Queen is FAB! I have their greatest hits collection and I take it on long road trips.
Vanessa Carlton
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Gold Lion and Maps are good songs
Sufjan Stevens
The Decembrists
One Republic
Death Cab For Cutie and The Postal Service - same singer, similar vibe
Mazzy Star - I <333 Into Dust
Jason Mraz (especially his new album)
Our Lady Peace - especially Boy and Starseed
Regina Spektor - Fidelity, Poor Little Rich Boy, Love Affair, That Time <333 and Samson are my fave songs by her
and
I wish I could send you the "My Favorites" list off iTunes.

All great songs! Saw Elton John live last year- it was awesome! Tool is one of my favorites and I was totally going to mention Death Cab, the new CD is wonderful!

Also add:

Murder by Death: their newest CD (can't remember the name but Fuego is a good song) kinda dark, rockabilly, reminds me of Johnny Cash actually

Thursday: Full Collapse ..if you like kinda heart felt screamy music

Otis Redding: Sitting by the Dock of the Bay

John Legend: Lifted

311: Any of their old stuff (plus Nick is awesome to look at)

What you could do before you download all of these is listen to them for free and quite quickly on imeem.com. It's like a free virtual playlist you can access from any computer, as long as the songs are favorited to your account (it's free). It'll save you the headache of listening to songs you really don't like on your Ipod.

"Closer" by Travis (British band similar to Coldplay, he has a very lovely voice).
"Hit Me Baby One More Time" by Travis (his version STOMPS Britney's, heh.)
"Disturbia" by Rihanna (yes, it's pop but it's easy to get into, and I love it!)
"Viva la Vida" by Coldplay (the one & only song I loke off their new album).
"Kali Basa" by Vas (it's different, but I like it a lot)
"Secret" by The Pierces
"Jackie Will Save Me" by Shiny Toy Guns
