According to Audioscrobbler...

...the following are the 10 most under-appreciated artists in my library (based on what I've been listening to and what others like me listen to):
1. Beck
2. Death Cab for Cutie
3. The Shins
4. Franz Ferdinand
5. The Flaming Lips
6. Weezer
7. R.E.M.
8. Bright Eyes
9. Simon & Garfunkel
10. Belle and Sebastian

I am sure I will return to 1-5 often, but I have never really appreciated 6-10 as much as some probably feel I should (#9 being the exception, I often get in Simon and Garfunkel moods).

Here's new stuff Audioscrobbler suggest for me:
1. The White Stripes
2. Wilco
3. David Bowie
4. Nick Drake
5. The Cure
6. The Beach Boys
7. Air
8. Eels
9. Johnny Cash
10. Red Hot Chili Peppers

The Beach Boys?

Johnny Cash rocks, even in hillbilly heaven he is the "Man in Black".

i don't think that i understand the audio scrobbler. i'm the non-cool internet person. :(

donna - audioscrobbler is a plug-in used with iTunes. it keeps track of what has played on my iTunes and provides stats, recommendations, etc. kind of cool. you should check out the links under my profile (top-right corner). an internet person, I don't know that about you. cool, you definitely got that one down!

you're so kind. :) so, it's just a way to keep track of songs being played...not necessarily to listen to those songs, right? i've clicked on it before and just couldn't figure out how to listen to the song. that's why i got confused. i get it now though. thanks for the explaination. you're such a teacher at heart. :D

Planning on some Death Cab listening today and during the weekend. Audioscrobbler will hopefully pick it up (not always reliable; still shows a song I listened to last night!). Good news though, the Beach Boys have dropped to #30 on the Recommendation List.
