Yeah, so, you know how it goes.

1. How did you get into 29?
Steve Carlson
Thanks to Supernatural. I heard he was friends with one of the actors and that woke my curiosity. A good find!

2. What was the first song you ever heard by 22?
Mika
Grace Kelly. I know, so not spectacu-lacular.

3. How many albums by 13 do you own?
Christian Kane
Sadly, none. I wish I owned them all, but you can't get them here. ):

4. What is your favorite song by 15?
Gavin Mikhail
Brave. Because that's the song that initially made me fall in love with this dude's music. And because the lyrics are ô.O - Especially this: If you can stay proud, I'll be brave somehow. Just... love.

5. What is your favorite song by 5?
My Chemical Romance
This is an easy one, because I actually stopped listening to them like four years ago.. But I can't stop listening to their new single, so: Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na).

My Happiness when we were learning to sing it in Year 6 for Music Class. Fell in love instantly.

Once at Big Day Out when they were my ‘new favourite band’: complete and utter awesomeness.

Oh, how time just fly by us, last.fm. We are very close to our second anniversary, so I brought you a gift. It's okay if you don't have anything for me, it's not that special. I did the same thing last year: a celebratory journal. This time around I decided to surprise you once again by posting it before the exact date but not on the same date as last year. I like to keep you in your toes.

This time around last year I had “47,036 plays since 26 Aug 2007” now it's "76,168 plays since 26 Aug 2007". So I've scrobbled +29,062 songs and went from "649 artists" to "1,119 artists" in my library. Yikes! I've been listening to a lot of radio that usually pads up the artists counts.

Reading back to that journal, I can tell you that some feelings stay the same. Rolling charts and journals are still rocking my world, and The Twilight Sad keeps hanging in there like a bad rash, when you think they are about to cave it, they release something. …

1) Remy Zero - Villa Elaine
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/519v2IWFH6L._SL160_AA115_.jpg
Yes, they were supposed to be the next big thing...a while ago...but they actually would have deserved it, if it ever happened...hard to describe, the music is unique but Cinjun's voice is what really connects....key track: "Gramarye"....

2) Bedouin Soundclash - Street Gospels
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51DS8%2B2ADrL._SL160_AA115_.jpg
Reggae from Kingston...Ontario...AS IN CANADA...and fucking awesome...if "12:59 Lullaby" doesn't affect you, there's something wrong with you....

3) Black Lab - See The Sun
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51ZSOc0jalL._SL160_AA115_.jpg
Why Black Lab is not ridiculously huge, I'll never understand...these guys are INDIE, but can write catchier songs than anyone on the radio, hands down...their songs have been used in TV, movies, etc...the important part is the emotion in Paul Durham's voice...extremely heartfelt, every song on "See the Sun" is perfect. …
