<p>I love B.o.B and Jay-Z is sick too.</p>

<p>I’m very surprised by most lists, I must admit.</p>

<p>The District Sleeps Tonight - The Postal Service
Delicate - Damien Rice
Carmen Fantasy - Sarasate (I’m not 100% sure, this is representative classical)
Marching Bands of Manhattan - Death Cab for Cutie
You’ll Rebel To Anything (As Long As It’s Not Challenging) - Mindless Self Indulgence</p>

<p>It’s not a perfect list.</p>

<p>Omg rad-in-plaid96
popular - Kristen chenoweth <3 wicked ftw!</p>

<p>My top five currently :
impossible - shontelle
High hopes in velvet ropes - the cab
run, don’t walk- hey monday
bulletproof - la roux (I have known of this song for a while, and now it’s so popular!)
airplanes- B.o.B</p>

<p>@Niiice: in the past three or so days I’ve listened to Impossible on repeat for literally every hour I wasn’t in class. (And then some…) I’m not even kidding. I’m completely obsessed b/c this is good *<strong><em>ing *</em></strong>.</p>

<p>@reginaphalange: spoon is so kickass.</p>

<p>So, currently:
*Impossible–Shontelle
*Major Tom–Peter Schilling (the German version, of course!)
*Fallen Angel–Alphaville (the original Forever Young. They have some great europop '80s German synth stuff. Oh such good good crap.)
*Cadillac–Gang of Four (but it’s not on iTunes and I can’t find anywhere online to download it! So youtube will have to do…)
*2000 Man–Rolling Stones (I played it in the car. My mom goes: what album is this from? Me: Their Satanic Majesties. Mom: I don’t even remember this song. It’s so funny what you kids are listening to nowadays. I mean, crappy forgotten Stones songs? Me: Hey! It’s a good song!!!)</p>

<p>All time:
