I need suggestions for my ipod.

Discussion in 'General' started by bon idee, May 29, 2009.

  1. I've been downloading some music, but it seems like I've been listening to the same thing for years. I need to spice things up. I have a list of my tastes so you guys can kind of work around that. I like mostly rock, but not conventional rock, if that makes sense.

    So far I have,
    Elton John, gotta love him.
    Billy Joel, again, gotta love him.
    The Beatles
    Pink Floyd
    Pearl Jam
    Bright Eyes
    one or two songs by TI,
    The Decemberists
    Silversun Pickups
    Jimi Hendrix
    The Arcade Fire (IS AMAZING)
    Bloc Party
    Interpol
    Oasis
    Sublime
    Norah Jones
    Red Hot Chili Peppers
    Rasputina



    It seems like alot, but for someone with my attention span, that's nothing. I'm open to suggestions. I'm not too into rap, but I like what they play on the radio. I need some classic stuff too. let's have fun with this.
     
  2. you need some ska.

    get the album "somewhere in the between" by streetlight manifest, hell get their discography.

    also get the reel big fish discography.

    You guys should listen to Regina Spektor, especially her early stuff.
