		<description>My musical taste is quite wide, although it tends to be most concentrated on indie &amp; punk. I&#039;m not a big fan of metal though - I have yet to really appreciate the talents of Metallica or Iron Maiden ;)

James Blunt is one of those artists that when I first heard his stuff 4 years ago, I liked it. He&#039;s definitely got a good voice and the songs are technically well constructed - it&#039;s just that it doesn&#039;t take long of owning the CD to realise just how dull the songs actually are, and how annoying &amp; whiney most of the themes are, a little like bad self-indulgent poetry. Pretty soon you just want him to get over himself and find some theme other than &#039;moony&#039;. I think I&#039;m far from alone in this, since his first album sold very well indeed, despite the fact that he&#039;s a minor pariah now. 

Nothing wrong with the Bee Gees mate, you just need to connect with your 70&#039;s disco roots ;)</description>

		<description>Lol @ James Blunt being in there! (P.S. I quite like that wierd Eskimo song, dont you?)

My music taste is slightly heavier than yours but you still have a damn fine splattering of music there matey. I have to question the Bee Gees though.

The missus and I saw Killers in Dublin last month, they were excellant!

Also gutted when Pandora stopped in the UK, sad to they are going down.</description>

		<description>The Genius suggestions seem a little suspect in spots, and I would guess that the Music Genome project (what Pandora uses) probably does a better job.

I only know about Pandora actually from reading your blog and use it daily now. I really love it and hope it continues to keep its doors open (and somehow get you guys back in on the action).</description>
