Did anyone do the thing with the slowed-down Ed interviews? They're great.

I've set out to limit my choices to artists that haven't been selected with each of my picks, but I'm going to break here. I haven't known this one for long but it's one of the sexiest god damned songs I've ever heard. This also gives me a little Radiohead fix w/o throwing another Radiohead song on the pile.

Wait wait....

And this might be me being lazy and not reading the rules but can ANYONE on RM vote or just participants?
Anyone at all. But usually only the participants bother. Every once in a while we get some strays.
And strats always good for a tie-breaker.

Why would you go into something wanting to dislike it?

that was really good. Bjork is one of those artists where I never get the urge to listen to her but when an individual song comes up I almost always enjoy it

I can't tell you how desperately I wanted the Chicks to team up with Pearl Jam on that Vote for Change tour. That would have made my entire life.

Not for me, but there was one little part I liked a lot (the bit at about 27 seconds that gets repeated a few times)

I dated a girl in High School who was obsessed with the Dixie Chicks. Just ruined it for me. Always thought Natalie Maines was super cute though.
