thoughts on music

I am working on a few things for the end of the year. I am going to write about 5 of the best albums i have purchased in the last decade (2000-09). I am also working on my thoughts for 2009, the best albums and songs of 2009. These will take me sometime to put together but hopefully soon I can have something interesting.

I am sorry i don't blog much but I don't have time anymore to write or thoughts to write on.

ugh life gets in the way.

Music of the year

A short random thought on music I listened to. If I previewed an album and didn't like it should I list it on the side of this blogs with other albums or just ignore it? I need some thoughts on this.

A quick note for those who might read this...

I am totally falling for www.lala.com because i can preview an album for free once. Sometimes all you need is one full listen to decide if you want to buy the CD or the mp3 or not at all. Much how i enjoy that last.fm monitors what i have listened to, lala allows me to explore music with out spending too much money. Then if I like an album it is often cheaper or equal to amazon's mp3s and cheaper than iTurds. (89 cents a track but some albums on sale are as low as $2). Check it out, i recommend it.

I am about to start into collecting my Best of 2009 Songs and Albums and want to know what you have liked. Please music fans leave me a comment on your best so far that I can use to research things.

PS do not recommend Animial Collective, too many bleeps and bloops and has driven me nuts. except i do like "my girls" song.
