1. How did you get into 29? - Nicholas Hooper
By watching the Harry Potter films.

Two, Mulan and Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

4. What is your favorite song by 15? - Hooverphonic

I'm gonna just throw 'Fight For Glory' out there. It always gets me pumped up.

tak tak - kolejny rok. Zmieniło się wiele. Poznałem kilka nowych kapel, jednak to "starzy znajomi" brylowali przez ostatnie 12 miesięcy - Amorphis, Sonata Arctica, Metallica i mój ukochany Guns N' Roses. Jeśli chodzi o ulubione albumy: pierwsze miejsce – American Psycho , drugie , trzecie Eclipse Ecliptica. Warto wspomnieć także o czwartym miejscu, na którym znalazła się płyta Runaway Horses słuchana przeze mnie bardzo namiętnie przez krótki okres czasu (jak bardzo namiętnie można zauważyć po tym jak wysoko uplasowała się w zestawieniu rocznym ;))
Jeśli chodzi o utwory: pierwszy House Of Sleep, drugi The Smoke i trzecie miejsce ex aequo: Give a Little Bit , Moonlight Shadow, Fiesta Pagana i Leave a Light On

czas na kolejny rok, który rozpoczyna D'yer Mak'er - ostatnio ulubiony utwór ;)

August 1, 2008- Thao Nguyen- Geography- This song, like all the others on the album, is pretty adorable. Unlike the others though, it has a very nice bluesy riff driving it. Love it.

August 2, 2008- The Hold Steady- Your Little Hoodrat Friend- There's something endearing about this band. And I'm pretty sure it's not Craig Finn's vocal ability.

August 3, 2008- The Black Keys- So He Won't Break- Yes, The Black Keys still make excellent blues-rock. This track doesn't immediately jump out at you immediately like "Strange Times" or "Psychotic Girl", but it's definitely a highlight of the album. Such good melody.

August 4, 2008- Yeasayer- 2080- I didn't like this song until I saw it perform live. It's all about raw, manic, energy. Much like the Talking Heads.

August 5, 2008- The Duke Spirit- The Step And The Walk- The Duke Spirit's latest album is nothing more than another collection of catchy songs with easily identifiable influences. And I love it.

Okay, Led Zeppelin. Of all the bands/artists I've made Top 21 lists of (or plan to) Led Zeppelin is the one I've gotten to know most recently, starting in July 2007. The story is, I loaded all my brother's Led Zeppelin songs (20 of them) onto my iPod on the day that we left for two weeks in France. When we got back, I tried to find as much of them as I could. Now, eight months later, my brother still has 20 songs. I have 150. Not bad, if I say so myself. Here's their top 21.

21. White Summer/Black Mountain Side
One of the most overlooked songs because it's only on Coda, which many people don't even know exists. IMO one of Page's best performances.

20. Dazed and Confused
This track is only six and a half minutes long, but in live performances, the length would be often quadrupled for lengthy jams in the middle. …
