Finally, I've found a friend to share my music taste with! I've been friends with him for quite some time, but we rarely talk about music - since my other friends seem to live in a different world music-wise, I always thought it'd a waste of time to talk about music with them. But it wasn't until we spent a weekend together and he rode in my car - he actually sang along to my songs, which usually no one else knows!! Yeah.

In the same weekend, while riding in another gang member's car, everybody sang to the songs played…

I just accidentally stumbled upon a stranger's journal, which was - in my humble opinion - full of big talk about his taste. Not just music, but art and everything else in general. I hate when people do that - bragging about how what they like is the best and others are inferior. OK, I'll admit, I do have my own share of mocking what I view as manufactured music, but I pray to God that I'd never end up sounding like those snobs.

I listen to a wide range of genres, much like the journal owner I aforementioned, but…

10 Turin Brakes
Their acoustic guitar sound lures me to listen over and over again… especially the song Forever

09 Carpenters
Sometimes one needs a dose of sugary music. Upon discovering and swaying to their songs, I also find Karen's voice to be utterly impressive. Her voice has got a beautiful tone, and she carries it along the backing music as skillfully as an acrobat. She does more with it than hitting the right notes; she might as well be the best female singer in my book so far.

08 The Clientele
I somehow tend to be in the mood…

I've always known that The Boyfriends would go far - since the very beginning. Undeniably there's an X-factor that makes a band famous… and they somehow have it. It's really exciting to see things are starting to look bright for them.

Their new single "I Love You" was released the day before Valentine's day, and was sold out in a matter of days. Thanks to the advance of technology though, it's still available on iTunes, and I really recommend you lot to check it out. They're often compared to The Smiths and early Suede: romantic yet fierce music with…

WTH?! Why didn't I ever give a chance to Paul McCartney's solo works before? It's such a blasphemy! I don't know what made me follow John Lennon and completely indifferent about the other Beatles. Maybe because his works are the most well-known?

However, I saw McCartney at the Grammys . I was impressed. It reminded me that McCartney is still in the music industry and what the heck was I doing being strictly stuck to his works from some forty years ago? So, I picked up Chaos and Creation in the Backyard and - needless to say, stung by…

Blimey, is it possible to choose? So many songs! However, when I was a reclusive teenager I used to keep a private Top-200 which I updated periodically. I'm amazed how I managed to do that - I can imagine myself now picking 200 songs I like best, but it's rather unbelievable that I actually sorted the songs out from 1 to 200. I would never be able to do that now! How to decide which of 2 songs goes at number 157 or 158?! That was the starting point of my obsession with music, I guess.

The first time I…

I've known The Beatles since God knows when, both my parents being fans. I've always liked them but lately I'm becoming more and more obsessed with the Fab Four.

I'm very keen on collecting covers of their songs by other artists right now - can anyone recommend some? I've probed the internet and found some odd live covers here and there. I've also got the obvious I Am Sam soundtrack album. But I'd like to know if any of your favourite bands have lesser known covers of theirs, preferably studio-recorded but live renditions are fine too!

Halo
You love The Cure. I love this track.

Perfect Lovesong
It's just so…

This is Hardcore
To everybody else: Don't ask.

Come What May
I'm a soppy sod, I know….

Somebody
You're that somebody. Hell, I won't even usually make this sort of lists.

The Wild Ones
If it wasn't for Suede we wouldn't even know each other.

Falling
I'm falling!

Love
Love is you, you and me. Love is knowing we can be.

Sense
When you're near, it all makes sense.

Sé Lest
I'll never forget, this song was playing when you told me those words! It…
