MUSIC on your Christmas list
 

I usually don't ask for music for Christmas, I periodically pick up a CD I want, but I'm broke this year....there are quite a few good albums I must have on my Christmas list this year:

-Greenday "American Idiot" (wow, this album blows me away)

-The Muse "Absolution"(ya, so they sound a lot like Radiohead, but it reminds me of their old stuff, it kicks my ass ;) )

-Keane "Hopes and Fears" (what can I say, love it!)

-newly reformed SuperDeluxe "Lolita" EP (I'm so excited they're back!!!)

-Norah Jones "Feels Like Home" (I have her previous album and it's great, I have no doubt in my mind this will be just as good, if not better)

-Jonny Lang "Long Time Coming" (I love his song Red Light)

-Modest Mouse "Good News for People Who Love Bad News" (Gawd, I love them, knew them since they were unknown, playing concerts for my college radio station and w/ my friend's band- and they just keep getting better!)


I could add more, but I'll stop for now. These are my top picks.............


How about your choices?

Bowling for Soup - A Hangover You Don't Deserve - this is one of those bands that just makes you smile.......that sounds gay, don't hold it against me!

Green Day - American Idiot - ditto oshnsoul

that's all i can think of for now.....most of the time, i just burn the music i want but for some reason i want these original cds. i hope santa brings them to me :)

I hope I get Hoverphonic's A New Stereophonic Sound Spectacular, Eric Clapton's Pilgrim and/or Björks Homogenic :)
