This weekend I’m heading across the Cascades to the Gorge Amphitheater to hear Kings of Leon. The Gorge is a popular alternative to a Seattle arena show (local Dave Matthews plays it almost every year), and it’s only fitting that one of America’s most musical cities has one of the country’s premier music venues.
Microsoft is in love with music, so adding a Zune HD to the sweepstakes prize pack was a no brainer. Everyone deserves the world’s best music player and I’m absolutely certain that once you’ve given the Zune software and Zune Pass a shot you’ll never use another service. In Windows, we’re working to deepen our engagement with the electronic music community and showcase Windows 7’s spectacular capabilities as a platform to create music. If you’re just finding the Windows Experience Blog, here are two posts that are worth a read:
· Windows Finds a Beat
· Windows in the Mix at Sonar
Round two of the Windows Recession sweepstakes is now open! Starting at 6:00am PT today (July 15), comments will be open for 24 hours.
To enter to win Windows 7 Ultimate, Microsoft Office 2010 Home & Student and a 16 GB Zune HD, leave a comment letting us know who your favorite musical artist is right now. Around Windows PR, our favorites range from Calvin Harris to Lady Antebellum to Tegan and Sara (and Brandon insists I also call out Foo Fighters, Weezer and Jimmy Eat World since he has “a reputation to uphold”). We’ll pass the results on to the Zune team.
Remember, to find out when a new round of the sweepstakes opens you need to follow me, Brandon, the Windows Blog or Ben on Twitter (or check the Windows Experience Blog). Including today, there are still 9 chances to win! You also need to let us know in your blog comment how we can contact you. We strongly recommend you leave us your Twitter handle. If you must leave an email address that also works, but we advise against it – remember the blog is public space. Please don’t leave your address or phone number – we’ll get that from you offline if you win.
If you’re visiting the blog for the first time, you need to join to leave a comment. Just look at the upper right corner or the blog page and click the tab that says “Join”. As always, you can also check out the sweepstakes Terms & Conditions if you have any questions.
Good luck!
I'm really digging Kaskade's new album, plus the new Underworld album that is coming out on my birthday! The new Chemical Brothers album is really good as well. Too much good music! @stellman
My favorite musical artist is Avraham Fried (singer). Contact me via twitter: @amitairos
It's gotta be Carbon Leaf, an irish rock band!

@CaneDrew
My favorite musical artist right now is Kurt Elling. Such an amazing jazz singer!!

@ztambrose
greenwizard88...glad to see another Irish Rock fan. I've been listening to Tears for Beers a LOT for the past 7 months....I simply can't seem to make myself sick of that music. I just jumped on Grooveshark and noticed a lot of Carbon Leaf, so I've added it all to my "Irish Rock" playlist.
Def. Nathan Clark George. (www.nathanclarkgeorge.com) BTW i like how the zune windows software puts my playlists on the jumplist.
Sorry for using email i don't have twitter: thomasshields@live.com
Evanescence, angsty music. :) @janetalkstech
Many bands come and go on my list of favs, but my true favorite is and always has been...U2.
I have to say, my favorite artist always has been (and still is today): Celldweller
Not a lot of people have heard of him, he's mainly underground & independent, but everyone has heard his stuff at some point or other if you've ever watched Cris Angel (they do A LOT of work together).
@luischinea
Radiohead, Tool, A Perfect Circle. Can't decide which so I'll just put them all. @Pup5
Dropkick Murphys, can you have too much bagpipe? I think not.
@_KYA
Right now I have to say The White Stripes still tops my list with the most 5 star songs in my library.
@rakul_nitescar
I'm currently listening to LifeHouse! I love them!
@JayKimble
Lately, Ego Likeness (http://www.egolikeness.com) with their new CD, Breedless, tops my list. Also excited to be seeing Emilie Autumn and Gary Numan this Fall in NYC. Both are high on my favorites list.

mike@farinha.us
Marina and the Diamonds - but don't include me in the draw, I'm in the UK.
Can never go wrong with U2
Re: Recently discovered the band, Shiny Toy Guns. I cannot wait to see them next time they tour.
Doh,forgot my contact info:

My favorite musical artist right now and for the next while is/will be Chickenfoot consisting of Sammy Hagar, Michael Anthony,Joe Satriani, Chad Smith. these guys rock! go check 'em out! Twitter @w33z

For me it has got to be Kesha. Or the guy who wrote that "Double Rainbow" song! @Mr_Je11yman
My favorite artist right now is Jars Of Clay. And they are about to hit stores with a new album. twitter.com/aaronmash
At this moment, my favorite music artist is Taio Cruz! He's actually a great singer without autotune, and his songs have lyrics that are meaningful and relatable!

John Mayer. Have seen him in concert twice. He just keeps getting better and better!
@WanderingHands
For me it's Jimmy Buffet
@w3zj.com
I love War of Ages!

Some other favorites of mine are Rush, Jethro Tull, The Hooters, Pat Benatar, Mandi Perkins
Twitter: @ilRadd
I found an album that I absolutely love! It is the best album I have heard all year. The album is "Love & Sound" by Garrett Mason, son of veteran Canadian Bluesman Dutch Mason. It is soooo good. Garrett Mason has the showmanship of B.B King, the grit of Albert King, the passion of Buddy Guy, and the raw talent to tie it all together. It's great!
deiler at hotmail dot com
Green Day
jd1note@hotmail.com
Dream Theater, duuh. Best progressive metal band ever!
@shiarua
Oh that's tough I don't really have a a favorite band right now. I guess Enrique Iglesias or Eminem. @ReviewTouchApps
It's hard to pick just one, but I like the Goo Goo Dolls - @cherichildress
I really like Joey & Rory, plus I got to see them as they are touring with The Zac Brown Band.
My favorite artist of all time has to be Alison Moyet, although I've been listening to a lot of VNV Nation lately as well. @MelGrubb
I guess I'll bring the hip-hop to the comments. At this moment, I can't stop listening to Skyzoo, Lupe Fiasco & Royce Da 5'9". Rick Ross's new album is pretty good sonically and I've re-listened to Kanye West's first album after a few years.
@PopeCatalyst
This time with Twitter ID! @KC7ISD
I would have to say, as always Brand New would be *that* band for me. Check them out if you get a chance
@QuesoLoco
I'm in the same place you are Ashley - Kings of Leon at the moment @mikebaz
I have an unusual range of favorites: Metallica, The Who, and Johnny Cash being my top 3 (and the options present in my car's CD changer incidentally).

@my_leisure
I still like Cake.
ricmoore03@yahoo.com

Currently really digging Janelle Monae. I first found her on the zune marketplace about 2 years ago.. She just released a new album 'The ArchAndroid' and it's hot.
My favorite musical artist for the past few years has been Muse. Their electronic/rock sound just pulls me in; and Matt Bellamy's voice keeps me there.

My favorite band is Alter Bridge! New album coming this fall.. cant wait!
@kevinadam
Ever since I was a kid, I've always been a big fan of Green Day, but since Xbox 360's release of Green Day: Rock Band, I can't stop listening to all the albums over and over again! American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown have to be some of the greatest hits from Green Day that I've ever heard! Plus, it always helps to know the words when you are singing along. =)
My favourite artists currently: SoundGarden.
E-Mail/MSN: alexboy94@msn.com

Twitter: @dbam987
Phoenix is playing right now!
@gfreehd
Current favorite (Since my recent trip to Japan) is Crazy Ken Band
smfrahm@gmail.com
If I had to pick the music of a single artist only, I'd go with Pink Floyd too. I tend to ignore them for a while and then go back...but it I created my first pandora station...Pink Floyd was it.
theotherbuzzy (at) live.com
I will have to go with U2.
My favorite musical artist right now is The Script.
Twitter handle: @chanconnie
I've been listening to Foals a ton lately. Zune Pass is awesome for new music.
@mattberkowitz
Hayley Westenra would have to be my choice - especially when she sings with Celtic Woman! Being Irish, I'm quite a sucker for that kind of tune. =)
captainjack1991@gmail.com
Hands down, without a doubt, the musical salvation that has revived the soul in me is THE BLACK KEYS. Their raw sound, through simple style, and a conveyance that is unmatched and unprecedented, gives it a retro/vintage feel that bypasses the status updates, blogs, and direct advertising of the day to recharge that eternal soul deep within you that you once thought may have been lost.
Weird Al !
@CO_GG
I am loving me some Jehro. He's an incredible artist!.
@melan26
It's gotta be KoRn, especially with their new release. @epiieq1
my favorite artist right now is Mudvayne. @thesteveisme
For the sake of being interesting I won't say the The Beatles though they made the best music ever. Right now I'm really into Jaguar Love's "Take Me to the Sea" album, it has a great sound though some people can't stand Johnny's voice.
parcelrepository@gmail.com
Junk account. :O
I like enrique iglesias voice and most of the songs.
todi_shish@yahoo.co.in
I love listening to Regina Spector Far at the moment. @humphnor

@nolantouchstone
Right now, Kaskade. I finally gave his latest record a spin the other day and I haven't been able to put it down.
@vi001101106

@omarali
My favorite artist right now is Metric. "Gold, Guns, Girls" is an amazing track. I'm on twitter at @nicholas_head
hmmm favorite artst. So much music, so little time. This week it has to be a really obscure gothic artist named Emilie Autumn, she does some really interesting stuff (last time I checked she's NOT in the Zune Marketplace).
@dnickb
Lately, I keep coming back to INXS. I know, Iknow...the 80's. But their earliest material (check out Learning to Smile) is gritty but upbeat. A nice energy to it. And since my Zune 80 has been acting funny lately (random re-boots...slow transitions), that ZuneHD would be pretty tasty. @indplshox
Right now is Band of Horses and K'naan.
@kurt711
Current favorite artist is misty edwards
welme.rs at gmail.com
I'm stuck in the '80s listening to Bryan Adams! @tejasbhatt
Sufjan Stevens is my favorite musical artist!
eknizram [at] gmail [dot] com
Priscilla Ahn is my favorite of the year.
At the moment it has to be Kylie Minogue new album Aphrodite
I actually like the new Slash CD, I like the way that each song has a guest artist, it gives it variety and is great music!!!
My favorite band would definitely be Relient K, they Rock! With songs like Sadie Hawkins Dance, Jefferson Airplane, Over Thinking, and Sahara I don't know how anyone could dislike Relient K :P
Currently Excision. (I get to have my fix soon too because he's playing at USC 13 on Saturday!) No one can make the bass wobble like he can. Seriously. He's the godfather of dubstep.
@brendaholly
*crosses fingers*
Eminem for sure!
@jolly1976
Silversun Pickups!
My current favorite artist is Vampire Weekend! I'm seeing them live in about a month!

My favorite artist would have to be The Beatles.
greivous_obi-wan@hotmail.com
My favorite artist is Five Finger Death Punch.
My favorite band is Bullet For My Valentine, they are a metal band from Whales. Their newest album "Fever" was great, because they went back to their roots of what made them popular. The first time I got hooked on this band was when I was playing Burnout Revenge on the original Xbox, ever since then I have been a faithful fan.
The one artist that I have been listening to a lot is Kate Miller-Heidke from Australia.
@edman1905
My favorite music artists right now would have to be Linkin Park. Been a fan for many years=] And what's better then All Linkin Park songs on a Zune?^_^

@Cosmosis
My current artist of the moment is none other than the immensely talented Jonathan Coulton - who, consequently, I'm seeing live in concert next week!

Heavy rotation in the whip includes Drake, M.I.A. and Curren$y
@HughL
My favorite artist has always been Cold
@CardboardDoom
Gorillaz is the best collaboration team in the world. What they can do, nobody else can.

Shout out to Little Dragon too!

My favorite musical artist (and what I think is the best band on the whole face of the planet) is Paramore. Their music is so inspiring and the lyrics are well-written and meant for the best of heart. Members of the band have awesome personalities which makes me love them even more. Paramore saved my life.
Twitter: @fallmorelow
Thanks for this awesome opportunity.
Im gonna have to go with eminem always liked his music and his album is just what my life is like now.
Fave band of all time, Gojira.
My favorite artist is The Cure
Right now I like Mindless Self Indulgence. Just came on the other day and I fell in love again.
@deathkindler
I got to say Kylie Minogue ..and she is making a comeback..
Dan Deacon. His music speaks to everyone, all at once, and constantly talks over itself like it can't get along. I love it.
notataco42@yahoo.com
By far the band that I currently listen to the most is Mumford and Sons. Pretty eclectic in my tastes though; favorites range from Metallica to Eminem to Jason Mraz.
Signed,
Owner of 4 Zunes but who couldn't have just one more. :)
Twitter me @chrispaytas
My favorite artist right now is St.Vincent. She has an amazing power and sweetness behind her voice.
Oh, a lot of good bands on here!
My favorite right now, as it's been for the past...oh, 7 years or so, is Bad Religion. I first heard them on Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, and they've been stuck in my head ever since. Can't wait for their new album, 'The Dissent of Man' this year!
E-mail (because I don't have Twitter): jetwarriorDELETE05@yahoo.com

Elzhi. He is easily the best emcee out of Detroit right now...if not the best emcee out period.
blacksun58@hotmail.com
Either Moby or Martin Denny.
Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Windows guys, if you haven't heard or listened to them, do it. This music is life changingly good.
jaaoneil@yahoo.com
I really like new artist Outasight. He reminds me of a cross between Beastie Boys & Beck. Really cool.
My favorite artist right now is Lady Antebellum! My favorite song is Need You Now. My Facebook page is right here: www.facebook.com/natelingerfelt if that doesn't work, please email me!
Its a tie for me: Mary Mary and Band of Skulls
My favorite band is GWAR. Just drove from St. Louis area to Gulf Breeze, FL and I listened to all GWAR music both ways. 24 hrs total of GWAR, and I never got sick of their music. AND they helped keep me awake the whole drive. So basically, they saved my life and the lives of all the other motorists. THANKS, GWAR!
On my Zune HD and my Zune 32 GB I have from Classical to Rock & Metal. Classically I love Chanticleer and the "boy band choir" Libera, and in Rock & Metal: Gamma Ray, Judas Priest, Manowar, Nevermore. They're what I'm listening to right now. ^__^
Yoko Ono Plastic Ono Band is astonishingly good right now.
Really, absolutely bloody fantastic.
Cartel
@wfcomponents
Daughtry is high on my list right now....Shinedown, too.
Really into Tool and A Perfect Circle. Just recently started listening to the Scissor Sisters(how are they not more known here?) and they are great.
Don't have a twitter, I find the trend quiet stupid actually. Winidas@gmail.com
Quite easily my most favorite recent discovery are the Carolina Chocolate Drops. I love their version of Hit 'Em Up Style
i am really into usher as of lately. i really like his blend of new age hip hop, as he continues to deliver on what i have liked about him since the begging.
Linkin Park is my favorite, Ive been a fan since fifth grade
At the moment, I'm completely taken over by Muse. Their latest album 'The Resistance" has me mesmerized. From the intro track "Uprising" to the finale "Exogenesis" its definitely worth a listen. I do, everyday.
I am completely and utterly obsessed with all things music, so to pick any one artist is a task in itself.
I'll go with Gogol Bordello at the moment :)
no twitter account, so here's the email: brokenglassjaw@hotmail.com
My favorite music group right now is probably Suburban Legends, they're a high-energy ska-punk band from Southern California. @OniElem
My twitter is @rtk142
The Electric Light Orchestra. No doubt about it, they are just flat-out awesome!
Big fan of Spoon.
cade_belo@yahoo.com
Latest group I have been listening to is Shinedown, but I am still a child of the 70's.
I love Nirvana, but lately I've been listening to a lot of Pearl Jam
I have to go with U2 as my favorite artist right now. No matter what else I listen to, I always seem to drift back to them eventually.
@luckado
My favorite artist currently is the Australian progressive rock band Unitopia.
@NHSeth
Okay lets try this again. Its a tie for me between Mary Mary and Band of Skulls. My twitter is talesia98
My favorite artist is the Black Eyed Peas. I'm a student and I need this badly! Sort of. You can get me at my Facebook: www.facebook.com/natelingerfelt
Right now, I'm really into Daft Punk. I'm kind of in this undulating swing of getting psyched for Tron Legacy and then cooling off about it, then getting psyched again, etc. Listening to Daft Punk is part of getting psyched. spustatu@gmail.com
Definitely U2. They get a ton of play on my original Zune... could really use that HD upgrade! :)
@RealMikeT on twitter.
Linkin Park is my favorite, Follow me on Facebook www.facebook.com/home.php!/profile.php?id=100000127247803, Twitter @Matteo012, and myspace: www.myspace.com/kocherguy

I've been listening to "The XX" a lot this summer. Great band and an amazing sound. Zune.net has their catalog crossed with some other band, but here is where the album should appear- social.zune.net/.../afd10600-0600-11db-89ca-0019b92a3933

@jsurles863
My favorite musical artist right now is Calvin Harris as well. When I first heard his song "I'm Not Alone", I got the shivers. The synth and chord progressions are just too awesome!
@thenextfriday
Breaking Benjamin is the best there is. Their rock is hard, harmonic, and inspired. Just try to find someone who hates them.
Recently, I've been listening to a lot of OneRepublic and Train, but only their hit songs. For an artist, I must say that Wim Mertens has some beautiful pieces.
I really like Firehouse, 3 Doors Down, and Coldplay. @AdamWisden
My latest downloaded band is Hockey, and the new silversun pickups.
My favorite is Jason Mraz. But that changes daily :)
bdewong@hotmail.com
Taylor Swift
@kevinskocik
I am really liking Eminem's new Recovery album, also Dresden Dolls is still a favorite. @afreegoat
I don't have one favorite band, I break them down into decades. 60-The Beatles, 70-Pink Floyd, 80-The Clash, 90-Barenaked Ladies, 00-Say Anything
Favorite for the now is Crystal Castles. New Fav is around the corner.
My all time favorite is Led Zeppelin. I just wish the remaining members would go on tour.
So far, I have 2 favorite bands that I have to listen to daily (as sad as that may sound). Their metal/rock music gets me pumped for things I do throughout the day. Avenged Sevenfold and A Day to Remember are my two favorite bands at the moment. Avenged Sevenfold's new single Nightmare, gives me that back-chilling effect that not many songs can do, and I am eagerly awaiting their new album releasing on the 27th of July. A Day to Remember is a good band I listen to when I feel like listening to some screamo/acoustic songs. Their recent cover of Over My Head (Cable Car) originally by The Fray is just simply awesome, need I say more?
@NToxicatedSpoon
I love Libera! I've used many of my Zune Pass credits on them.
My Twitter name is @Jolynn87
Aerosmith has been my constant favorite for a long time now but bands like Pearl Jam and Metallica sometimes get me in a good mood. However, right now I'm really itching for (and need to find) my Mother Love Bone albums
Does the Chipmunks count?

Wim Mertens has some beautiful pieces that I've been listening to a lot recently. @shadowthunder0
By far my favorite artist right now is Sia. I think she is doing something a little different than everyone else and her voice is amazing. The new album is fantastic. @theNERDdegree
Pierce The Veil Has their new album out and I can't stop listening to it.
I'm actually getting into a group called "GangstaGrass" they're a blue grass/gangster rap mash-up. Got turned on to them by the FX series "Justfieid". I'm usually not a fan of gangster rap, but for some reason I enjoyed this.

Right now I'm really diggin Sleigh Bells! I'm on twitter @b_kind
Linkin Park I really like them Because They are AMAZING first of all, and they sound different among all other artists, like when you hear one of their songs you know its them almost instantly, and that is what I love about them. Their New Album is Out September 14th! "A Thousand Suns" and "The Catalyst" their first single off the album will be out August 2nd be sure to get the album :)

Because I started working out at the gym again, I have been listening to up-tempo stuff like Slipknot and Megadeth. It helps me keep a pace and the heart rate up! @Sutures
weezer (then offspring, then beck)
I think Janelle Monae is the best new artist I've heard in ages. She's my current fave.

I still like Jewel

Enjoying "Hum" this week.
@LaoCain
My most played artist on my current Zune is Radiohead. I love that they kicked traditional distribution to the curb as well.
I've been listening to Portugal. The Man's discography essentially on repeat for four years, and I don't see that changing. I love that they grow in a different direction every year but never falter in quality. I seriously expect them to be considered on par with the Beatles by the time I'm old and gray.

Oops, I don't see a way to edit my comment, but forgot to post contact info - I'm @starkeee on Twitter.

@Talverion
I can't get enough of Caedmon's Call! They have wonderfully crafted, yet refreshingly simple, music, and a powerful team of lyricists to create beautiful works of poetry. Everyone in the ensemble is featured and highlighted at different times; no single person steals all the spotlight - truly amazing!

It's very hard for me to choose my favorite band. I can't take it down to just one, so instead I choose to pick a Top 5, in no specific order: Eisley, Streetlight Manifesto, The Features, The Hush Sound, and She & Him! gosh, even that was hard to do!
I am currently obsessed with an artist I just found for the first time called Aesop Rock. I highly suggest listening to the song "none shall pass" Which is available with your Zune Pass

Breaking Benjamin ftw!
I am currently writing a book, and I am on track to finish before school starts again. I really enjoy to listen to music which broadens my imagination and makes me think about ideas. For that reason I enjoy to listen to groups like Globus by Immediate Music and groups from Position Music. My favorite all around artists would have to be James Dooley and Tyrone Wells. I really needed an mp3 player, and I almost got the zune HD. Instead, I waited and got an amazing HP laptop. I still a zune to listen to music on the go, and to keep my imagination pumping. :D

I have been a Incubus follower since "Fungus Amongus" and have always thought Brandon Boyd (@brndnboyd) is a lyrical genius. Now, that he has is solo album out "The Wild Trapeze" he is cont. that genius way of expression through his music. I am also really digging Slash's (@slash) solo album "Slash". There is also a local NC band I like to favor as well. The Fifth (@thefifth) is out of Fayetteville, NC and they are fantastical.
Anywho, check me out on Twitter - @zcoleman.
I love Pendulum. It's as powerful as Drum and Bass but it doesn't lose its musicality like most DnB producers do. I also love that they're constantly trying out different genres of music!

@mrdrmuffin
I've been listening to alot of faith no more. Especially now that they are back together. Hopefully they'll be working on a new album.
@acorbo
Nobuo Uematsu has been my favorite for a while. If any Zune people are reading this, it'd be nice if Zune got a sort-by-composer function like its competitors; it'd be a real boon for classical music.
@linjeff
Roisin Murphy, always and forever!

My favorite band is Dragonforce, I love their guitar solos. Metallica last album is great as well (actually any album by Metallica is great).I'm also listening a lot of Bon Jovi's songs lately, I can't wait for their concert here in Brasil. I know you asked for the favorite, but it's impossible to pick just one, so I picked JUST 3 of my favorites bands. But if I was to chose a single artist, independent from the band, I would choose Demi Lovato, I listen to her songs ever since the first album(its just 2, so its not a big deal).
Sorry I wrote too much. ¬¬'
My favorite artist right now would have to be Eminem.
@Jeffreywoo
Foo Fighters all the way. Grohl is a musical genius. And yeah, Windows 7 was his idea. @techvudu

I am really liking TobyMac and RJD2.
@Lanmanna
It's always hard to say who my favorite artist is at any given point of time. A lot of good music is out right now. But if I had to pick one, it would TiRon. He's got a mixtape out called "MSTRD" and it's both soulful and honest. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
For now The Prodigy - The Fat of the Land
Oldies! :D

@maglore1968

I would have to say my favorite artist right now is Usher. I remember him when he was young and his second album, "My Way" was a success. After that, his fourth album, "Confessions" was his biggest success, going platinums four time. I like the way he changes up his style. Not if only he made another album like Confessions...

At the moment, it's Marina and the Diamonds. I saw the video to "Oh No!" and immediately loved how the pop-art/comic art sensibility fit with the punchiness of the song.

I'm kinda digging the haunting refrain from Eminem's "Love the Way you lie" sung by Rihanna.
But as for favorite, that would be Ludovico Einaudi (a pianist) whose songs Primavera and I Giorni bring back memories of a time when I had a piano. Had to sell it off to finance part of and pursue my studies and I haven't played for quite a while now... still yeah, he's my favorite and I'll get a piano one day when I'm out of college and working.

I have always been a metal head, but recently I have been getting into classical music, especially when I am working on college papers and doing homework. I recently found a band that combines the best of both worlds. My favorite band has to be Haggard. They combine awesome guitar riffs and awesome classical elements.

@I_AM_LJ
Favorite artist is Pearl Jam.
@bryaneds
Much to my girlfriend's chagrin, Lil Wayne.
@ryoshioka
To me, Muse (muse.mu) is by far one of the greatest bands I have ever heard. Their talent spans many genres. Stockholm Syndrome on Absolution has to be on the best songs I have ever heard. To me, each and every album they have put out has been gold. It's sad to know it has taken them this long to get the recognition they currently have here in the United States. A lot of people are starting to hear their latest albums, but I think everyone needs to start from the beginning with these guys just to hear what they can put out and understand what they are capable of. @shawnburge
The Crystal Method. Can't get enough of 'em
@kinderelli
Third Eye Blind!!
@smurfer
Y&T - first new CD in about 15 years (Facemelter)! Still love those guys!
honestly..my favorite artist is and always will be aerosmith..something about dream on always gets me..

@brandonsharp

@mattbrown187
I'm really into Cruchy. It's a band headed by former Galactic Cowboys' bassist Monty Colvin. He also has a great "rockcast" that he puts out every few weeks!

dgpfister@student.cccs.edu
There are so many great artists out there nowadays, with the internet and all the indie labels. So much good music that it is actually impossible to even check out everything I'd like to hear. I'm looking forward to getting a new 1 terabyte ZUNE HD as soon as they start making one. Put that baby on random and never hear the same song twice in maybe a year or so. I've gotten so tired of listening to radio stations that always play the same artists and songs over and over and over again. I love music and my cd collection is so large I think I can fill 1 terabyte already.
I can't live without Coldplay!!!!!
Twitter me @diddo09

the kaleidoscope of musical splendor i bathe in varies in shades and hues from day to day, mood to mood. but today i have been listening to jack white, and all of his musical endeavors.
i love my zune, and zune software.
got a 30gb when zune first premiered which suffered from bugs and shorts, till it eventually succumbed after a year and a half or so to a broken screen. i now have a zune 8gb which i love, but it also has several bug issues, such as the back button not working anymore, which leads to difficulty when navigating, i have to turn it off to go back. i suffer with it though because i love my zune soft and hardware, despite it's errors and hardware shortcomings.
i would love a zune hd, but i am a broke starving artist/musician, and it's waaay out of my budget.
jack white! the dead weather, the white stripes, and the raconteurs!

My favorite artist is The Devil Wears Prada
Twitter: @danz32
I'd have to say my favorite artist right now would have to be the band Elbow - their last couple of albums have been amazing, and their most recent, "The Seldom Seen Kid" became an instant favorite of mine. I had the rare experience of hearing a song for the first time and weeping openly and uncontrollably -- which happened when I was driving and heard "One Day Like This" out of the blue. Their stuff is amazing - I highly recommend giving them a listen. Thanks! @guettel78 on Twitter (and email is gkaufmanss@yahoo.com)
My consistent favorite for nearly a decade now has been Death Cab for Cutie - thanks to an original Xbox demo disc that included the video for A Movie Script Ending. But as for my current favorite, it would have to be The Morning Benders and their fantastic new album Big Echo. Blending the Phil Spector "Wall of Sound" styling with tight guitar riffs and excellent vocals, the music is pure bliss. And if the Morning Benders catch your ear, check out Beach House, and The Antlers.
@arendhart BTW
Mine would be OneRepublic
@White_Gryphon
I'd go with Jason Mraz.. Their music makes me feel relaxed and cosy especially in Summer. They make me feel like I'm in the middle of an island of Caribbean Bay. ^_____^ Perfect for this hot and humid weather!! I listen to their music if I can't go on a vacation. :)

Lauryn Hill will never get old. I absolutely love her. Her music is great for any mood. I always heard that she had a breakdown during her Unplugged recording, so it took years for me to actually listen to it. She's an amazing and talented artist. . . I wish I had not waited so long to experience her "live".
Ooops! the Lauryn Hill comment...is lacking one key thing! my twitter name!!

Here goes nothing. Hope I can get something. Like they say in Vegas. Expect to lose; hope to win.
I love Carrie Underwood and several Christian artists, such as Switchfoot.
