    I have never listened to Led Zeppelin's IV in it's entirety, what an amazing album! Also listened to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon and then finished a song myself (finally!).

    I'm more these days into the electronic music scene, but I've recently found my deluxe edition of Fleetwood Mac's Roumors and man some of the b-sides/outtakes are quite good. as for other stuff I've been listening to lately, its been a lot of MuteMath and Boom Boom Satellites.

    I'm not an electronic music fan per se, but these two I do like: Kraftwerk and Daft Punk. Don't know if they're technically 'electronic music' but I consider them to be. And Bowie has done some stuff that was inspired by electronic music (in case you didn't notice, I'm having a Bowie period now :D ).

    That whole album is a masterpiece, without a doubt.

    Lately, I've been listening to a lot of Foreigner ("I Want To Know What Love Is", "Hot-Blooded", "Urgent", "Double Vision") and Roberta Flack ("Killing Me Softly With His Song", "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face").

    I can recommend Elvis Costello's first three albums to everyone!

    I've been listening to the Ratatat album Classics. Some awesome guitar and keyboard work with some slick beats through this entire album.

    I was working on a big assignment today, naturally that means I listened to a shitload of music:

    Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand
    Pink Floyd - Animals
    Elton John - Tumbleweed Connection
    George Harrison - All Things Must Pass
    James Brown - The Payback
    Morrissey - Years of Refusal
    Neil Young - Everybody Knows This is Nowhere
    The Verve - Urban Hymns

    Been a number of years but I used to listen a lot of Costello's music back in the day. The only one I've listened to recently is 'Painted from memory', the one he did with Burt Bacharach.

    I just love this song the cruising sound and the release at 1:53 is just amazing. Listen with some decent speakers and bass. I just love the sound that this duo has.

    I'll look that one up! I really dig Costello at the moment, great music and clever lyrics.

    Man, The Smiths are just amazing. Johnny Marr is an underrated guitar player and Morrissey is just amazing, lots of humor in his lyrics that is often overlooked.

    This is a song I've been listening to a *lot* lately. It's been a long time since I've heard a modern song that was actually hypnotic. :)

    Video Games, also by her, is one of the best songs of last year! ^^

    Ever worked on a musical piece where you're close to solving it but not quite yet? It's frustrating! :%)
