Listomania

Ironically, and I do like that song, neither the band nor the title show up anywhere on this post.

From Keith, who reminds us that Coolness Is Timeless:

I've got a question for you. It actually has nothing to do with lingerie. I thought I would ask it. What kind of music do you like?

Poor Keith was probably expecting a two or three sentence answer. But since I'm hitting you with mammoth blog posts, I'm going to keep it up. I have not one, but sever lists for this one. Here goes:

1. Yeah Yeah Yeahs
2. Lilly Allen
3. MGMT

Bad News: I've been stranded on a desert island with no food. Good News: I got my ipod with my top 10 songs on it:

1. Pixies - Here Comes Your Man
2. Spoon - The Underdog
3. Nirvana - Aneurysm
4. Pavement - Cut Your Hair
5. MGMT - Kids

Please don't laugh at any of this. It took a tremendous amount of soul-searching....
