IPOD-new music suggestions

[kaw1218]

OK gang, I think this can be a fun thread!

Tell me your favorite songs!!!!

I want to add some new music to my IPOD. I have lots of room, some credits at Itunes, and lots of walking in my future.

I like a wide range of music....but for the life of me, my mind is blank on what I want to add.
Right now I have over 600 songs. Just so you can understand my variety, I have Songs from the Tarzan soundtrack , Beatles , Opeth, Guns N Roses, Lacuna Coil, Tim MCGraw, Primus, Joe Walsh, New Kids on the block(yup a child from the eighties )Linkin Park, Jesse McCartney , Prince , Jay-z, and of course Bon Jovi(my DD would disown me if I didn't!)


I can say, I don't really care for jazz, hard core rap or classical.
other than that..... all suggestions are welcome!!!!



Thanks.

Do you like oldies stuff? Here's a list of some oldies stuff that I like. This guy did a great job on his website. Top songs listed by year, artist, and title. It should give you some great ideas. http://tropicalglen.com/Jukebox/Playa%20Cofi%20Index.htm

Check out songs from the Grey's Anatomy soundtrack.

I think the show has already "jumped the shark" as they say but it has pretty good songs on it.

 

[Freyja]

Lenny Krawitz
Eagles
Madonna
Rolling Stones
Justin Timberlake

I teach spinning so I am always looking at music for my classes.
Some I am enjoying right now:
Amazing Grace by the DropKick Murphys
Mas Que Nada Sergio Mendes and the Blackeyed Peas
Come on Eileen Dexys Midnight Runners

Give Taylor Hicks' new CD a listen (previews on his MySpace or www.taylorhicks.com.) I think you and I have similar music taste (see my sig). Taylor did a fantastic job with the CD. I've been a fan for a while, so it may seem I'm biased, but I tend to be real critical of musicians I think a lot of (like I'll tell ya that tracks 1 & 2 are cheesy! Otherwise, it's superb.)

I've recently been listening to Norah Jones - she has a new CD coming out Tuesday. Absolutely some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard.

Another one I picked up from the library and can't stop listening to is Joan Jett's greatest hits (you mentioned the 80s!)

If you have a good library system, you might check out their music collection. Ours allows us to borrow music from any library in the county system. You reserve it online. It's been a goldmine for me!

Have fun.

Richard Elliott
Al Jarreau

Peter White
Ramsey Lewis
Dave Koz

and I listen to
Luther Vandross
George Benson
Allison Krauss
Carlos Santana


Alejandro Fernandez
Luis Miguel
Shakira
Olga Tanon

I love the new CD by Yusef Islam. You may know this artist by his previous name--Cat Stevens.

He hasn't had new work in ages, and it is really really really good!

The Cure - Galore
Depeche Mode - Violator
The Doors - Greatest Hits
The Beatles - #1's

Pet Shops Boys - Discography: The Complete Singles
The Police - Every Breath You Take: The Singles
Prince - Hits 1 & 2
Queen - Greatest Hits
Snow Patrol - Eyes Open

Well, I could go on but I think this should give you some more idea's!!
