I mostly have showtunes and Broadway-related songs, with some punk, rock and vocals mixed in. Here's some of my recent adds: [title of show], Grey Gardens, Jenny Lewis, Thom Yorke, Julia Murney, Aimee Mann, Rilo Kiley, Annie Lennox, Rachel York and The Yeah Yeah Yeahs. My iPod is fairly new; I only have about 900 songs on it right now.
This topic rocks and a big thank you for letting us see what they listen too! It's awesome seeing some new things that you have in common with your favorite stars.
I don't have an iPod but I have a 20gb Creative Zen. It's got about 2000 songs on it. A majority of those are OCRs like Altar Boyz, RENT, Last 5 Years, Light In The Piazza, Company, A Chorus Line, and a whole lot more. Then I have an extensive collection of a cappella songs by lots of little known groups. I have tons of classic rock (like AC/DC, KISS) and then a lot of classical music. Plus random artists like Michael Jackson, Prince, Aretha, Celine Dion, Michael Buble, Natalie Cole, Kriss Kross, and even the Spice Girls. I also have a lot of broadway artists solo albums.
I have a very ecclectic music collection. I don't listen to much country or rap though.

Also everything Steely Dan's ever released, a lot of Doobie Brothers and Springsteen; some Coldplay, White Stripes, Bob Seger, lots of Queen and Hall and Oates, quite a bit of Michael Jackson, The Clash, and soundtracks to Footloose, Eternal Sunshine, and The Incredibles.
Video-wise, a wonderful internet faux-chat show, and the Strong Bad emails. Those things rock.

My ipod is fruity. It's pretty mcuh 99.9% musicals.
But, I have bands like People in Planes, Pilate (or should I say Pilot Speed) Snow Patrol and Stars to balance it out.
It's a cutie.

Barrett Foa has amazing taste! I don't know anybody else who listens to The Shins and Mates Of State. Our playlists are almost identical, except I have different/more showtunes.
Thought this was a useful bit of information for those interested. Someone mentioned "Dakota Moon" both Billy Porter and Orfeh are singing background vocals on the song "Looking for A Place To Land" from the album by the same name. It's actually a great record all around.
