It's strange, but what's so strange about it?

I have 4 of the 6 songs already.

Wow, I was going to put this in my above list but changed my mind. Not because I think it's less than the ones I have, but because I felt it didn't fit in with my list. Anyway, fantastic choice.

Did you put thought into it, or just sort by play count? /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Dispatch / The General

I listen almost exclusively to rap, but I really like this song.

I'm not sure if that's as good of an advertisement for the song as I meant it to be. Oh well.

I used to be into Ozma. They're good live, and after a show one time they invited the crowd back to their house for beers. Pretty cool of them. I like their song "Los Angeles."
