    Ok, War is declared :-D When you are in this kind of old french songs, I would also suggest Sylvie Vartan, "Love is like a cigarette". Or Gainsbourg, "God is a havana smoker" ;P

          What music are you currently listening to (or recently have listened to) I'll start it rolling: Currently, The Darkness, Permission to Land (who will be the new Queen if they last for another 30 years :-)) Plus Radiohead's Hail to the Thief is still getting listened to fairly often [EDIT] The suggestion of listening to the radio made me recall that Triple J Australia are worth listening to - thanks guys :-) [/EDIT] -- Ian Darling "The moral of the story is that with a contrived example, you can prove anything." - Joel Spolsky

            Up until recently - "Yes", however you can now select RealPlayer or MediaPlayer.

            Got a link? As far as I can see, Radio 2 is still RealPlayer only. 1Xtra, BBC 7 and World Service have been converted (they also appear in Windows Media Player's Radio Tuner list).

              I take my music very seriously and I love all that's obscure and cutting edge and fresh in the electronic music scene... So all yer Progressive House Underground Garage - and I don't mean Craig David New Jazz Funky Soul Drill n' Bass 2-step Ambient Rap - but not all that commercial rubbish and Drum n' Bass at this very moment I think everbody in the whole world should music from... Landslide feat. alison crockett - It's not over (original) Erik Truffaz Mad-Lib Schoolz of Though Jazzanova Cinematic Orchestra Solid Groove - Show Me Sumin LTJ Bukem ...in fact the whole world would do well to listen to the gilles peterson show weekly Clickety[^] :) Joel Holdsworth

                                        mostly pop and rock but also other kind of musik like oldies (60s-80s, some are really great) and on friday night also techno (i hate this) but it's the best radio station in austria

                                          It is them indeed! The album I really know is "In the Dutch mountains"... obviously a clear sign of humour! They sang in English on that one... I used to listen to them in the late eighties but I think they are still going. No idea about the clarity of the lyrics in Dutch though!
