Favorite Music


Last night I took the leap into the world of handheld digital media and purchased a Zune. So far I love it. But I'd like some suggestions for the ultimate music library. In comments, tell me a couple of your favorite songs. Especially the oldies that I may be forgetting about as I build my play lists.

Welcome to digital music! I can't really do songs, but I can do artists: Paul Simon, Ray Charles, Sam Cooke, Al Green, Natalie Cole, Natalie Merchant, Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder, my list is long.

I also have new stuff if you're interested.

Nina, you know that I am the music GURU! Here are a couple of artists I enjoy:

Earth Wind & Fire~EVERYTHING!
Force MD's
Shirley Murdock

Mary J (but you knew that!)
Musiq (Soulstar...the entire CD! AND his new Luvinmusiq)
Chris Brown (surprisingly to many, but his CD is great!)

Nappy Roots
Wu Tang Clan
Outkast
Digable Planets

Madonna (the old stuff)
George Michael (old time secret crush ;)
Bon Jovi (Did I mention that I LOVE Jon Bon Jovi?)

Okay, I'm long-winded...that should be a great start. I'm sure you can further consult with me at your leisure ;)

And Mos Def. Do not forget about Mos Def. I don't know how Zune works, but I can try to share a few tracks from my iTunes if you like.

Tera said...

Fringe is he not the coolest of all time? Mellow, very bright, and just DROP DEAD GORGEOUS???? Many people argue that, but he has this...thing about him (loooong loving sigh)!!!

Nina said...

Fringes~ Now how could you think I'd forget Mos Def...do you not remember one of the very first comments I left on you page was about him :)

That would be cool if you could send me some tracks. I'm sure if they don't work right away, I can convert them, thanks!!!

Tera~Love the list. I love Bon Jovi too...I'll have to search for that. Although Jay has a pretty extensive collection I don't know that it includes any Bon Jovi :(

Thanks again to both of you!!!

I do know that you have a wide range of musical taste, but two songs that I KNOW you need to download is Ring My Bell, and Rock With You! and erm...what exactly is a Zune?

Nina said...

Heidi~Of course, big sis! I wouldn't forget those, ever!
A Zune is an digital music player that can be used to store music, pictures and video files...it's Microsoft's answer to the ipod video player. Tell you're hubbby you want one :)

Tera said...

Nina, is the Zune Jay's peace offering?

Nina said...

No, that was my mad money :) He had no say in the matter whatsoever!

Tera said...

Ha! I love it!
