    My old roomate loved Jack Johnson and Ben Harper, who I found to be dull and boring as hell.

    He also loved the Pixies and Weezer, who I can totally agree with.

    I don't know where they are getting that list from. Probably that facebook site or something. I'm scared to see what my college would look like with all these emo/punk wannabes around. Can't stand that music either. Pearl Jam will always be #1 on my list.

    Really, no surprises here, it's what you would expect.

    That wouldn't be the top 10 of college students in the UK .. guaranteed! :D
    Jack Johnson?? Incubus? Fall Out Boy??? and DMB definitely wouldn't be #1.
    Led Zep, The Beatles and Green day might be there.

    I'm guessing Foo Fighters would rate better, and there'd be more british bands too .. The Who, Arctic Monkeys, Libertines.

    Ya know. For some reason I can handle Fallout Boy. I mean they are a pop band, but thats all they are tryin to be. They arent trying to bring world peace, or act all dark, or serious all the time. They let their personality come through with the music. Thats not generally what I am in the mood for, but there are times when in fits into my listenin.

    As long as Zeppelin is there I can hold out hope for future music.

    So brutalize me with music.”
