Want to answer more questions in the Hobbies category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Music?
Mabe Evanesence (spellcheck?). Have you ever heard anything by Rammstein (spellcheck again?) Or Gackt, Silver As, Blood, Malice Mizer, or Luna Sea. Utada Hikaru is also a good singer. (You can tell; I'm obsessed. And I'm proud!)

Try "Old Blind Dog" folky in a way, but very good. Um... Jars of Clay. GOOD MUSIC.

The absolute most fun thing to do is visit the library and listen at random. The other one is find a small independent record seller or "reseller" that lets you audition new and different CDs.

I'd try Bob Dylan or Eric Clapton.

You might try Adagio for Strings by Samuel Barber, because it's a really pretty classical piece, and Enya has a similar sound as far as the instruments. I also think you might enjoy Vanessa Carleton or Evanescence. Michelle Branch is good too. They're all things that I like, and you might like them too, I would guess. You'll only enjoy Evanescence if you can tolerate some metal though.

You like Enya? Maybe you should check out the soundtracks for the Lord of the Rings movies. High quality stuff.

You also might be into Tori Amos.

you have pretty diverse tastes. When I want to find some new music, I will sometimes go to a site filled with song lyrics and just pick a song that looks good.

Arlo Guthrie
Jim Croce
Carly Simon
Emmylou Harris
Dan Fogelberg
Warren Zevon
Joni Mitchell
Judy Collins
The Fairport Convention
The Kingston Trio
The Smothers Brothers
Bob Dylan
The Band
Eric Clapton's mid 1970s material (Lay Down Sally et al)
