Pandora is a great place to listen to music. Not only can you customize stations based on your listening preferences, Pandora also throws in stuff that you might like. I'e heard a lot of great songs that I may not otherwise have had the opportunity to hear.
It used to be Yahoo Music (when it was Launchcast), and Last.fm is pretty cool too, but Pandora is my (latest) favorite online radio site.
Here's some great songs I've loved lately:
(in no particular order)
Sweet Apple - "Do You Remember" - a 70-ish rocker from the latest side project of J. Mascis (Dinosuar Jr.). If you own a Camaro, roll the windows down and crank this one up.
Peter Wolf - "Tragedy (featuring Shelby Lynne)" - I was just blown away when I heard this song. I remember Mr. Wolf from the 80's band J. Geils Band — and truthfully, I had never considered checking out his solo stuff because of that. Then I heard this song. If all aging rockers had the ability to crank out sweet Stones-inspired tracks like this, the music world would be a better place. Or maybe I'm just getting old.
Justin Currie - "A Man with Nothing to Do" - I've been a big fan of Del Amitri since 1992's "Change Everything," which is (in my mind) a perfect pop record. So I was excited to hear Justin Currie's voice again, as his 2nd solo cd, "The Great War" has just come out. Will have to check more from this.
