Anyone have (highly unlikely) or know someone who has (still unlikely) Jamstix 2XL? If so, maybe I could 'borrow' it...?

What were your top 10 favorite songs or albums of 2007?

1. The Smashing Pumpkins - 'Zeitgeist'
2. Silverchair - 'Young Modern'
3. Travis - 'The Boy With No Name'
4. Daughtry - 'Daughtry'
5. N/A
6. N/A
7. N/A
8. N/A
9. N/A
10. N/A

I think those were the only new albums I listened to this year worthy of making the list. (I listened to the new albums by Kelly Clarkson, Nine Inch Nails, Linkin Park, and they don't make this list. Although, I do need to give the Linkin Park one some more listens.)

I still need to listen to the new Foo Fighters, Led Zeppelin, and Fountains of Wayne.

What work of art (film, book, record, whatever) changed your life?

Nirvana's 'In Utero'.

And countless others, but that came to mind first and I'm going with my first answer.

Audio: What's your favorite carol or holiday song?

'O Holy Night' -- the 'fall on your knees' part gives me goosebumps. I love that song.

What's your musical horoscope?  (Put your player on shuffle and write down the first 10 songs that come up.) 

How is that a horoscope ("a diagram of the relative positions of planets and signs of the zodiac at a specific time (as at one's birth) for use by astrologers in inferring individual character and personality traits and in foretelling events of a person's life" or "an astrological forecast")? Yeah yeah, I'm just being anal.

Anyway, I don't have 'a player'.

Do you tend to like music in particular genres, or are your tastes all over the place?  What are your most and least favorite musical genres?

I definitely like rock music the best. Rap is okay. Country is a no-no. Pop can be fine, depending.

Music-wise, what was the first 45, single or download you bought? 

I was thinking, sadly, that it might've been 'End of the Road' by Boyz II Men. That was 1992, though. Hmm. I must've bought something before then... but I don't remember what. I didn't buy much music until I had a job. I just listened to the radio and my parents' records and stuff.

What's the best music documentary or concert film you've seen?

Nirvana's Live! Tonight! Sold Out!!

Led Zeppelin will finally offer their music online starting next month.   Of the music you buy, about how much of it do you download and how much do you buy on physical formats (CDs, vinyl, etc.)?

Download: 100%

Buy on physical format: <1%

Note: Numbers may not total 100% due to rounding.

Radiohead release their seventh studio album today and it's only available online and you set your own price.  Will you buy the album?  Do you buy the idea?

I won't buy it, because I'm not a Radiohead fan (even though I feel like I probably should like 'em, I just don't). I totally dig the idea, though.
