The CDs stuck in my changer for the past few weeks:
The Clancy Brothers Live at Carnegie Hall (love “Johnson’s Motor Car”)
“Ogden’s Nut Gone Flake” by the Small Faces
“Candy-O” by the Cars
Paul Revere and the Raiders’ Greatest Hits
“Love Junk” by the Pursuit of Happiness
Led Zeppelin 3
The air conditioner, and the whine of a laser printer warming up.
“Big Lizard in My Backyard” by the Dead Milkmen
I love Richard Currie’s work! He’s criminally unknown here in the states though. One of the most gifted pop lyricists of the last couple of decades. I salute you Tansu!
Brothers In Arms Dire Straights
Old but good
I had a bad morning at work. (Hopefully this will excuse my unsual music choices)
I am currently listening to a collection of showtunes I downloaded from napster and made into a CD. I have songs from 1776, Showboat, My Fair Lady, The King and I, South Pacific, The West Side Story, Guys and Dolls and Pirates of Pinzance (sp?).
The current song playing is Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend from the movie Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. I know it doesn’t fit in with the rest of the CD, but I love that song. It makes me smile.
I love Napster even more.
Well I have a horribly slow connection, so no Napster for me. (I have a small collection of MP3, nothing terribly impressive though)
At the moment I am listening to a collection of random midi off of the classical music archive (wrote a short program that goes through the archive and picks music that the maintainers note sounds especially nice). I have some trance MODs and techno midi mixed in too.
Before anyone scoffs at midi, I would like to emphasize I am using TiMIDIty with 20MB or so (by now) of real instrument sample waves.
The quality surpasses MP3, although even with the extra distort and shifts that TiMIDIty can do, it still sounds a little too perfect, lacks the human quality.
Just finished playing:
Franck: Choral No.2 for organ
X-men theme
Ave Maria
now listening to Los Requiebros.
Ahhh, I remember when we were so impressed at the sound quality of the 8bit DAC we had built when we finally had sound coming out of real speakers. Played with midi we had written all day…
I LOVE that CD! AWESOME!

‘Your Woman’ by White Town.
It’s just running through an MP3 playlist.
At work. Minnesota Public Radio. A Schubert violin concerto.
I love this stuff. No commercials, no vocals.
Elvis Costello “Extreme Honey”
…cover up that bruise, put on patent leather shoes…
A brand new CD from Peter Tork and James Lee Stanley entitled “Once Again,” the sequel CD to Peter Tork and James Lee Stanley’s “Two Man Band” (not to be confused with James Lee Stanley and Michael Smith’s “Two Man Band Two”). 
I’m listening to the Candymachine88’s cover of NIN “Mr. Self Destruct”
Good stuff.
Murry Head “One Night in Bangkok”
Well, among other things. I have Napster going, so I have a whole array of songs to choose from. Before this it was Moby, after this song will be Paul McCartney. =)
Qkumba Zoo - “The Child Inside”
“Wrapped Around Your Finger” by The Police aka Gordon 'n da Boyz…
Hey!! I was on Clap Hands just 8 tracks ago. I am listening to a Tom Waits retrospective I created called "Music for a Dark & Smoky Room.’
Chopin’s Barcarolle in F sharp, Op. 60, performed by Adam Harasiewicz.
I am listening to the humm of about 46 computers in the lab were I work. There are about 20 students in here silently typing up reports and whatnot. I have to listen to this every night midnight to 4am while trying to do all the homework that my professors deem necessary for me to do. Don’t they remember when they were students and needed a break?
I’m not listening to it now, but “Highway 61 Revisited.” “Desolation Row” is a fascinating song.
