So last night I heard a song in one of my dreams. Of course I've woken up with a random song in my head tons of times, but this song started playing along with the dream and ended with the dream…like a song in a movie. Is that common? Do I have a secret desire to make movie soundtracks?

The dream was extremely vivid. I see myself standing on a cliff overlooking a foggy sea. It's night and there are no stars, but somehow I know that the sun will come up soon. dreamt that you died is playing softly…

Am I a jerk for wanting my favorite bands/artists/musicians albums to leak as sooooooon as possible? Obviously it's stealing to download albums…well in most cases. I think that live recordings are fair game, those usually can't be purchased anyway. And yes, it costs the artists money, people their jobs, record labels their profits, blah blah blah.

It's not really a money issue on my part, I'll usually end up buying my favorite albums anyway because iTunes usually throws in a free exclusive song or two with the purchase of an album (which is a very smart idea). But usually leaked…

Nearly 3 months have passed since the Great Accidental Profile Reset of 2006, and I'm still bitter…so bitter. 15,000 songs, vanished as if they were never listened to….It's taken me until now to recover enough to face writing another journal. I've been listening to tons and tons of Indie Pop lately. Rap (except for Jay-Z) and Garage Rock (except the YYY's) has fallen off a bit. I attribute that to no really exciting releases so far this year. The end of last year was pretty awesome for rap, with long awaited (at least by me) albums from Jay-Z, Clipse and…

My listening data has accidentally been erased, does anyone know of a way to recover it?

1. What are you listening to right now?
Rebecca - Meg & Dia

2. What song makes you sad?
Careful Where You Stand - Coldplay

3. What is the most annoying song in the world?
Hmmm, I only listen to music on my computer so I rarely hear any songs that I don't like. Oh yeah, that stooopid chicken-noodle-soup-dance song.

4. Your all time favorite band?
That's an unfair question and I refuse to answer it. But if I HAD to answer….the Yeah Yeah Yeahs probably.

5. Your newly discovered band is?
Meg & Dia.

6. Best female voice?
Nina…

Step 1: Open up whatever MP3 program you use and add every song in your collection.
Step 2: Put it on random.
Step 3: Post your favorite line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarassing the song.
Step 4: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 5: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 6: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!

1. I won't tell your secrets. Your secrets are safe with me….
Alicia Keys - Diary

2. I'm…

Hmmmm, a quick glance at my updated chart shows that I still haven't gotten Meg & Dia out of my system. I'd written them off as typical pop/rock my first listen or two, but holy crap they're the most infectious pop/rock group I've heard in a while. No, infectious doesn't describe them very well. Let's just call them awesome. Good songwriters too. I'm looking for them to be back in the top 10 next week, but with fewer listens probably. I highly recommend them to anyone.

I also highly recommend The Grates, especially to fans of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.…

I hate the "N" word…in certain situations. I hate to hear any non-black person say it for any reason. It's virtually the only thing in the entire world that makes me angry. I hate hearing non-black professors say it, I hate hearing non-black comedians say it, I would even get angry if my closest non-black friend said it if I handed him a piece of paper that I had just written it on and begged him to say it. The context doesn't matter, the intent doesn't matter, and identity of the person saying it doesn't matter. It's just a no-no…

I like my favorite bands/artists a lot. Maybe that's why they're my favorites? Anyway, since I like them so much, I want to talk about them. I also want them to be accurately represented on my last.fm charts. I know what you're thinking. "Why are you telling me this? Isn't that one of the main features of last.fm? Aren't you on last.fm? No,YOU shut up!!" Yeah, ok that's what last.fm is for. But, but, but, wait!!!

I love Maroon 5. I love them a lot. Yes, they are about as pop/rock as it gets. Yes, 50% of their fans are…

1. Jay-Z
2. Lil' Wayne
3. Yeah Yeah Yeahs
4. Coldplay
5. Nelly Furtado
6. The White Stripes
7. The Like
8. T.I.
