So... what are the songs like??
~~~~~ Disk 1 ~~~~~~
1 ~ Lovely Head ~ Goldfrapp
Well this is a good start to the album, as I love Goldfrapp! This track I belive was used as the theme tune to Monkeydust on BBC3(which is also very good~so made me smile!!)
It starts with somebody whisteling, then the beat cuts in, very nice chilled song. Great chillout....
2 ~ Why Does My Heart ~ Moby
Starts with piano, then powerful male vocal starts, 'why does my heart'
Woman signs chorus, work really well together.
Excellent track, which I already have on a Moby album so obviously something I like. Beautiful vocals on this track, from very strong male & female voices!
3 ~ Solo Por Tu Amor ~ Manuel Franjo
Mmmmm... not so ...
Advantages: This doesn't have room, this has aircraft hangars. Great iPod Disadvantages: Few small problems, nothing major though

I then was given a 2GB iPod Nano for my birthday and I thought that 2GB was a lot considering I didn't really have much music on my computer at the time.

Then I had so much, it was quite a task trying to sift out 2GB of music worthy enough to go onto my iPod. Then I started downloading U2 bootlegs at 100MB (approx.) a show and this was the final straw, I was in need of a bigger capacity MP3 player.
So, after much thought and the release of the new iPod Classics at the time I decided upon the Classic ...
