Those are some excellent songs, mofo. Your taste in music is astoundingly fantastic. Wait. Your taste in music is almost exactly identical to mine.

These are songs that have been playing in my cd player/ playing at work for the last 2/6 weeks. I can't think of any other good songs you should hear now.

Finley Quaye & Beth Orton - Dice
Moloko - The time is now
Zero 7 - Destiny/ Waiting Line
Sia - Breathe Me
Aqualung - Brighter Than Sunshine


I read back through this thread and have to agree with whoever suggested Lamb - Gorecki :drool:

here is my 2 cents worth:)

orbital- halcyon & on & on & on- great ambient/trance music
junkie XL- crusher- very cool trancey dance song
michael franti and spearhead- soulshine- just makes you feel good and mellow
janes addiction- jane says- beautiful song, featuring tin drums, acoustic guitar and congas
xavier rudd- let me be- excellent didge, djembe, acoustic guitar and harmonica
colin hay- beautiful world- the lyrics are just profound and make you realise how great life is
RHCP- behind the sun- classic oldie from the chilli peppers
the whitlams- no aphrodisiac- emotional song, but very nice- this was a massive Aussie song back in 96
:)
 
Some more...

"Sit Down"-James
"David"-Nellie McKay (has anyone else heard of her? They've been playing a couple of her songs on that adult alternative channel, and the songs are kinda interesting...kinda quirky, and I like them. I recently found out she just turned 20 a few months ago, and that kinda surprised me-making this kind of music at this age...).
"The New Kid"-Old '97s (just now heard of them, didn't realize they'd been around a while-if any of their other songs sound like this one, I wouldn't mind that at all)
"That Certain Smile"-Midge Ure (such sweet lyrics...:cute:...)
"Vienna"-Ultravox
"Stand By"-Roman Holiday (catchy song)
