War Has Been Declared!
Hmmm... That title may be a little inappropriate considering the current geo-poltical climate. Anyway, the one I'm speaking of is much more benign. iPod War. Hue declared it to me this afternoon, without warning of course. Essentially, we list the first five songs that play when we put our iPod on shuffle. And it's up to you the voters to decide which playlist is better.
Hue's Songs:
"Hawkmoon 269" by U2
"Believe" by the Chemical Brothers
"For Whom the Bells Toll" by Metallica
"Surface To Air" by the Chemical Brothers
"Ten Miles Back" by Crystal Method
My Songs:
"Gone for Good" by the Shins
"Here Comes Your Man (live)" by the Pixies
"Prototype" by Outkast
"Sing Me Spanish Techno" by the New Pornographers
"Sister Savior" by the Rapture
So please vote or the outcome may be like a real war.. no winners... unless you're talking about WWII... Ha! What do I know about world history...

Sorry, Hue, but just by having two songs by the same band (and then mixing similar-sounding Crystal Method in there) shows as disconcerting lack of diverstity in those mere five songs. However, the Metallica alone is almost enough to redeem the whole list because it paints a more complicated picture.
In the end, Myk's list had a few songs I really like (Sing Me Spanish Techno was a memorable one I first heard in Utah) and the Outkast has a hip factor now that Idlewild just came out. I think Myk wins.
