    Last song before you die...

    if i was about to die, i would go say goodbye to my family and friends, not listen to one last song. It'd be cool if i could have Mike Oldfield Tubular Bells Part 2 playing as my soundtrack when I was saying farewell

    Thievery Corporation

    ive been listening to them over the past couple years, and my interest has really gone on and off. I am kinda indifferent when it comes to electronica/down tempo, it all depends on the mood im in. Either way, theivery is one of the best groups in there genre! Versions is their new cd.
