I LOVE last.fm!

Tweet

For some reason I can not get Pandora to work on my computer. My Honey discovered last.fm recently and we are loving it! We are listening to awesome music from all over the world and I recently created an account so I could mark my favorite tracks and save them to my library. A few days ago I discovered Susheela Raman and Lhasa de Sela as well as Dhafer Youssef, artists I would likely not have heard of otherwise. My other half is stuck on Codona radio and this is where he usually starts out his listening. He is practising so I am listening to last.fm through headphones on his little emachine and working at my laptop. I just heard a very interesting rendition of "Whatever Lola wants" by Natacha Atlas. I asked for Souad Massi but they have been playing a whole lot of other stuff. Sometimes I am busy typing and do not get to "heart" a song before it finishes playing. The only problem is that the listings are not always correct. Right now the song that is playing is supposed to be included on the CD "North African Groove," but I have that CD and this song is not on it. We were listening to Codona radio the other day and they said something was Don Cherry but it was an artist playing saxophone! The music they do play is still good though and I am thoroughly enjoying my listening!
