    I've been sitting here pondering your question and I still haven't come up with a list of ten.  I could easily give you a list of dozens, but ten is much more difficult.

    One song I do listen to guite often however is:  Ice King by Off

  • evil_twin said on Jul 01, 2008....
    Ed, I'm not that young! Plus good music is good music. That's like saying I'm too young to know who the Beatles are. Some artists transcend time :-)
  • silverwhisper said on Jul 01, 2008....
    fair points, kyle. :>
