I have $10 left on my Connect Tunes download - recommend some songs
I bought a Sony Netman player (It's a 1gig MP3 player that holds about 700 tunes) and with it I received 2 giftcards worth a total of $20 for downloads from Connect.com (Sony's version of ITune - yes, I use Sony, yes I know about the rootkits but I still like their products so there).

I downloaded Queen's "Jazz" album since my other version got totally destroyed (I have all my Queen up to the "Jazz" album on my Netman). I have $10 left and I need recommendations for something fun yet intriguing I could download. I'm into the Grunge/Alternative/Indie sound although I am a diehard Classic Rock fan. So work with that!

1. What about Franz Ferdinand?
They're good and they have what I think is a classic rock feel.

2. the new The Dandy Warhols album
Edited on Sun Nov-27-05 09:02 PM by tigereye
Oddditorium or Warload of Mars

or the new Raveonnettes CD - Pretty In Black - if you like lots of revurb with Velvet's type angsty lyrics...

not sure if those are your speed, but.

* Jumpin' Jack Flash - Rolling Stoners
* Don't Leave Me This Way - Thelma Houston
* Respect - Aretha Franklin
* Proud Mary - Tina Turner (hers is the best version)
* Another One Bites the Dust - Queen (though I bet you already have it)
* Junebug - B-52s
* Hot Pants Explosion - B52s

5. Oddly enough I have most of those
All but the Tina Turner song - that was a good choice!
