I stopped liking Rammstein when he uh...did a *GUY* anal on stage in the middle of a concert. -_-'

Depends on my mood. At the minute it's:

1. Eleanor Rigby (Beatles)
2. Shoplifters of the world unite (Morrisey)
3. A Design for Life (Manic Street Preachers)
4. London Calling (The Clash)
5. Pretty Vacant (Sex Pistols)

I think The Supreme Rabbit meant the music.

It was pretty nasty. I didn't say he had to stop liking them, but after watching that, it's all I can think about when I hear their music.

Depends on my mood, but for the most part:

(and this is in no particular order)

■Still the One by Orleans
■Hooked on a Feeling by B.J. Thomas
■American Pie by Don McLean
■Soul Man by Sam and Dave
■Do You Believe in Magic by the Lovin' Spoonful

The Jackson Five and Stevie Wonder are pretty good, too.

Eh, I'll probably end up changing my mind in a heartbeat, anyway.
