Eclectic music tastes

So a friend recently remarked that I had the greatest mix of music ever. See, there's a thread over at SJ where you take your iPod/MP3 player and relate the first five songs on the shuffle. No skipping, nothing. Apparently my shuffle was varied and crazy enough to elicit such a response.

With that in mind, here's the full list of bands on my iPod (thanks, Santa!). Eclectic, or just plain nuts?

(Please also note that some of these bands' tunes came via soundtracks and compilations, so this is not an exhaustive list of my CD collection.)

Good God! Yeah, I guess I should've pointed out that I'm using less than half my space.

With a handful of selections, my would look much the same.

Though I sure as shit wouldn't have a Babs-Barry Gibb duet on there! :)
