I'm listening to March of the Swivelheads by The English Beat...known simply as The Beat to the English.

(Americans will recognize it from Ferris Bueller's Day Off when he's rushing home from his girlfriend's house to beat his parents.

)

I'm listening to a Nashville band called The Whole Fantastic World. They're really nice and very, very talented.

Franz Ferdinand. I had "Take Me Out" stuck in my head all day so I got their new CD.

I was listening to Powderfinger and James Blunt on the way to work today.

Why does that sound like a drug reference? Drats, my filthy little mind is playing tricks on me.

i have been listening to a lot of led zeppelin lately. probably more than is considered healthy by most people

also pulp and u2. right now it's just the sweet sweet sounds of my son's nickelodeon cartoon (fairly odd parents; woot!).

I'm switching back and forth between "A Collection of Short Stories" by Houston Calls and "Everything In Transit" by Jack's Mannequin

I'm listening to Radio1 on the internet. Its John Peel day. Incase you don't know, he's a DJ that died a few months ago and I know this probably sounds really disrespectful but its really starting to piss me off. They've done nothing but talk about him all day and play old crappy records that he liked.

I'd never heard of him until he died but I still felt sad and listened to them talk about his life and acomplishments so why do they have to do it again months later?? Is this gunna be a monthly thing now, like a national holiday? Its getting too much now, they didn't go on this much when the pope died!

Right now I've got on Hugh Masekela's 'Promise of a Future.'

If you like jazz...especially trumpety jazz...then I highly recommend seeking it out on CD. It's not easy to find, though. The cheapest one on Amazon.com is $25 because the thing is OOP. I'm so glad I bought mine for $7 at Waterloo a decade ago.
