Ok. I am in need of some new music. I, like most everyone here on Broadwayworld, am addicted to showtunes; and I need to listen to some other things.

I have just about everything beatles and Elton John, so you don't need to suggest that. But please list your favorite songs (preferably no rap, hip hop or country; unless it's reallly good) so I might be introduced to some more stuff.

Ocean Avenue, Firewater, Rough draft - Yellowcard
Crash - DMB
The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most - Dashboard
Mi Morena, Per Te, Remember - Josh Groban


God, I've got so much more for you, but I'll just stop there.

Everything by Dar Williams (start with Mortal City or Out There Live)
For the more political bent Josh Joplin (Useful Music)
They Might be Giants
Indigo Girls

Of course this all depends upon what you like.
