It's annoying me that most of my iPod music consists of bubbly radio hits (don't know how that happened!) I need something different for a change....suggestions anyone?!

1960s

A girlfriend of mine said when she felt depressed she would cook loads of chips (fried potatoes) place them in newspaper wrapping (Chip-shop style in that era), pour herself a glass of red wine and then settle down to listen to the LP of West Side Story.

Cried herself sick, but was happy.

She went on to teach Dramatic Art for a living - quelle surprise!

I like to hear engines SCREAMING. If nothing is happening at Losail international circuit, I just go to youtube.

are you depressed? awww but then if you are wouldn't bubbly happy music like you have on ipod be better? Or are you looking for something soulful ...

For something in between try Katie Melua (Lilac Wine, Shy Boy etc)

There's a featured video on that site 'nine million bicycles'

Have fun, whatever you decide.
