I'm tired of the same old music so I want some new stuff to listen to. Not workout music, just any ol' stuff. I particularly like indie, alt. pop, "light" rock (like John Mayer-esque, I guess) and classic rock and roll. I'm pretty much open to anything else though, except anything dubstep -__- If you have any suggestions or want new music yourself, post it here :) If you're looking for new music/songs, I'll post some too.

Modest Mouse - 3rd Planet
John Mayer- Gravity
A Rocket to The Moon- Not a Second to Waste
Chase Coy- Turn Back the Time
The Beatles- Within You Without You/Tomorrow Never Knows
MayDay Parade- almost any song by them, they're one of my favorites.
Amos the Transparent- After All That, It's Come to This





P.S. If you're just gonna tell me to use Pandora, move along :D I want an actual person's opinions, I don't like Pandora.

    In that vein, I'd go with some Spencer Day, Michael Buble, Norah Jones, Jason Mraz, Jamie Cullum, Sarah Jarosz to start.

    Hate Silversun Pickups actually lol. But The Postal Service so far is great! Haven't gotten to the others yet.

    Oh no! That's terrible! It's also why I keep at least 2-3 backups of all my media. There's too much there to rebuild.

    Don't know if they are your cuppa but:
    Damien Rice and Feist are both fun!
