I've been wanting to ask this question for a long time and decided to ask it when seeing the poll on the best music for long distance swimming.
I just changed my playlist this morning. Have some Beastie Boys, Evanescence, some STP and a little Run-DMC.\
I usually change it about once a week. Or, if I get board with the playlist, sooner than that.
I love Mark Knopfler. Saw him last summer - Great concert.
My music tastes are very broad - as long as it is not mainstream - but right now in my car's CD player I have:
Kasey Chambers
The BoDeans
Gaelic Storm
The Rainmakers
The Elders
Just made up another one:
Mark Knopfler...Summer of Love
English Beat...Best Friend
English Beat...Two Swords
Jane's Addiction..Been Caught Stealing
Jane's Addiction...Stop
Red Hot Chili Peppers...Higher Ground
REM...Bad Day
REM...It's the End of the World
AudioSlave...Show me How to Live

No rap allowed.
Oh man, where to begin. I have some hip-hop/rap, pop, rock, classic rock, 50's and 60's oldies, 30's and 40's Big Band, Folk (Jim Croce and Mr. Cash). In addition to music I have some Seinfeld comedy and a few CD's of The Jerky Boys. There are also about 30 episodes of Seinfeld and some various Will and Grace and Scrubs episodes in the video portion. I keep a lot of stuff on my iPod. Roughly 1600 songs and about 60 videos.
Some of my Top 25 are:
Black Eyed Peas
Missy Elliott
Michelle Branch
Gwen Stefani
Outkast
Avril Lavinge
Coldplay
Gorillaz
Elton
Johnny Cash
Steely Dan
Glenn Miller Orchestra-"In The Mood" is one of my favorites!
I don't have an iPod, but I'll gladly except donations.
Right now I'm listening to Jamie Foxx "Unpredictable" and Jay-Z "The Black Album"....in my old-fashioned CD player.:( When I have meets though, it's mostly heavy rap or hard rock.
Let's see what's in my iPod playlists:
U2 and lots of it! (not a surprise to the people that know me)
Dido
REM
Eminem
Dance music
Madonna
and lots of random mixes :)
