Help me out here.

ETA: I have a wide taste in music. Just added Jethro Tull's "Songs From the Wood" and Husker Du's "Zen Arcade" today (from my own collection; didn't buy it).

1. What do you like?
If you like harder rock at all I'd recommend one of the tracks from Dream Theater's newest album, Systematic Chaos.

Perhaps In the Presence of Enemies, Pt. 2 so you get lots of music to jam to for your money (16:00 + magnum opus)! :D

2. Heh...sampling them on iTunes, I can sit and name their influences...
...all of which I like better. But thanks for the suggestion! (And you're right, I should purchase a long song, to make it worth it...)

3. If you don't mind rap ...
I think you should download one of the OBAMA songs! There are more than are shown on this list but...

5. Find another one that you like
Sample, then reject or buy.

9. In honor of the probably outcome Tuesday, how about some Johnny Nash?

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

I think I can make it now, the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is the rainbow I’ve been prayin?for
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

Look all around, there’s nothin?but blue skies
Look straight ahead, nothin?but blue skies

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

15. Wesley Willis, "Hootie and the Blowfish".
A tribute to a great band in concert, and the songwriter's very positive experience at that concert. Listen before you buy, as such things are not for everyone.

19. Already got "Waiting Room" on there. EXCELLENT driving song.
I think I have Helmet on cassette somewhere, and I'll transfer it through the iKey.
