MUSIC: Question From FormSpring.Me - If you could only listen to one song for the next month, which would it be?
If you could only listen to one song for the next month, which would it be?
I actually don't think I could do that. It would drive me nuts. I listen to my 120 gig iPod on shuffle constantly. I'd rather just not listen to music that month!
But if I had to choose a song, right now at this moment I'm really into "Bad Dream" by Violent Femmes. I'd probably hate it - or any song - if I had to listen to it over and over again for a month!

MUSIC: My Top Ten Albums
This is from me, and NOT some reprinted material. - OlderMusicGeek
Well, a while back Patrick McEvoy on Twitter asked what our top 10 favorite albums are.
After some thinking, I have come up with mine. But this could change depending on my mood and new memories!
10 - The Raveonettes' Pretty In Black
9 - Chumbawumba's Tubthumper
8 - Visage's self-titled debut
7 - The Clash's London Calling
6 - Ultravox's Systems Of Romance
5 - Devo's Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!
4 - The Sex Pistols' Never Mind The Bollocks Here Comes The Sex Pistols
3 - Flogging Molly's Drunken Lullabies
2 - The Police's Outlandos d'Amour
1 - Violent Femmes self-titled debut
Yeah, my top ten albums is heavy and completely dominated by alternative stuff! Have go into top 25 or 50 to find other genres!
But looking at my top ten albums, it's still a pretty diverse bunch - punk to synth dance pop - with folk, reggae, celtic and 60's influences!
