[haggard]

What sort of music are you looking for?

[muchlove]

You need to tell us what kind of music you like. I could list a bunch of indie stuff and whatnot, but you might not like any of it.

I like a little of everything except rap

[muchlove]

Try

My Morning Jacket
Bright Eyes
Sun Kil Moon ('Carry Me Ohio' is a very lovely song)
Sufjan Stevens ('For the Widows in Paradise...', 'Romulus', and 'John Wayne Gacy Jr' are all beautiful songs)
Fiona Apple's new album
Frou Frou
Postal Service
Death Cab for Cutie
Interpol ('Evil' is a great song)

All this stuff is pretty mild... nothing outrageous or scary or too weird or anything, so it should work for most anyone. Unless you don't like mild stuff, and then... I don't know, try Cursive or something.

Download Frank by Amy Winehouse. Fuckin' fantastic album. Love it. "Fuck Me Pumps" is CLASSIC. There are also 2 hidden bonus tracks on the last track of the album.

I love Frou Frou! Great recommendations!

[mklady]

I'm in your boat too. I got one for my birthday on the 15th and I still haven't come close to filling it. So far I have two Allison Kraus cds on it, Van Morrison, Veggie Tales (I have a 2 year old) and the rest is a mix.

Beth Hart
Anna Nalick
Bob Schneider
Wilco
James Taylor
Norah Jones
BB King
and a bunch of stuff that was on my laptop when I got it. One that is a new favorite is "Love Me Like A Song" by Kimmie Rhodes with Willy Nelson. Their vocals harmonize amazingly.

Any recommendations are welcome...

[tofucheesecake]

"Tangerine Speedo" - Caviar (fun)
"Dragostea Din Tei" - O-Zone (for dancing)
"Perfekte Welle" - Juli (German Pop)
"La Gasolina" - Daddy Yankee (Reggation, for dancing)
"Mr. Blue Sky" - E.L.O. (cheerful song)
"Ban the Tube Top" - Reel Big Fish (ska, a whimsical song)
"Sleep on Needles" - Sondre Lerche (indie)
"My Goddess" - The Exies (true head-banging hard rock, if you're into that)

This place: http://music.download.com/ has lots of free mp3's from mostly more obscure artists from around the world.
