    Hi,

    special thanks for Cucurrucucu Paloma from Caetano Veloso. I also enjoyed the rest of the list.

    Try Drawing Down the Moon from Tea Party, I guess you'll love it

    Could we have a "listen to all" link? You could probably easily implement that by having an auto redirect in your flash popups..

  3. Thanks guys for the song and playback suggestions. I'm not sure how to do the auto redirect thing but I've been checking out off-the-shelf software (as opposed to making one myself in Flash MX) that creates a "radio" player, but most that I've seen are Windows-based or require more set-up steps than I have the patience for. But it's on my to-do list, I really think it's a great idea. As Moz says, I know it's gonna happen someday.

    Hi!

    I'm loving listening to all your tunes...giving me lots of variety and giving me the chance to discover some new bands.
    I'm surprised you don't have Elliott Smith on your list? Or maybe i just missed it.
    I think you would like him.

    hello!

    I just came across your blog, looking for "good music for my ipod" on google. I am in love with your blog; & I wanted to tell you that you have helped inspire some amazing songs for my iPod (or, what I call it: iEscape).

    Some songs I had never heard of & fell in love with; some songs I had forgotten completely about & fell in love with them all over again.

    Your music insight is much appreciated from me. :]

    Keep up the good work :)
